AST Products, Inc.

AST Products, Inc. manufactures ophthalmic surgical products focused on cataract treatment and intraocular lens (IOL) delivery systems. The company's primary product portfolio includes the Asqelio™ soft hydrophobic intraocular lenses (available in EDOF, multifocal, and trifocal variants), the Asqelio™ Preloaded IOL Delivery System, and the pioli™ and lioli™ IOL Delivery Systems—all designed for implantation of single-piece foldable intraocular lenses. All IOL delivery systems are pretreated with AST's proprietary LubriMATRIX™ surface treatment technology, which enhances lens delivery safety and efficacy. Beyond ophthalmic devices, AST also manufactures environmentally-friendly medical coatings and provides specialized plasma reactors and analysis equipment for advanced surface treatment applications across multiple industries. The company holds CE mark certification for all IOL delivery systems and has obtained FDA 510(k) clearance; however, Asqelio™ intraocular lenses and preloaded systems are CE marked only and not available for US sale. The company maintains an active presence at major ophthalmic conferences (AAO, ESCRS, ASCRS, EFClin) and has received design recognition including the 2018 GOOD DESIGN® Award for the pioli™ system.
