Clear, fog-free vision is preserved for hours during endoscopy after application of VitreOx Medical FDA Class I and Class II for lenses and scopes . VitreOx™ eliminates fog safely, without scope heating and without toxicity. VitreOx™ is seen in action in the center picture where the image remains crisp and clear over the entire field of vision for hours during closed body cavity surgery.The entire scope image is fog-tree. The side-by-side comparison of VitreOx™ with other untreated endoscope lenses (left) and endoscope lenses treated with the leading surgical anti-fog (right) shows the difference in the clarity of vision that is preserved by VitreOx™(center) for the duration of surgery. VitreOx™ is a registered trademark with the United States Patent and Trademark Office and has several patents pending, two of which are nationalized. VitreOx™is manufactured in the USA, in the SiO2 NanoTech, LLC facility at the Center for Entrepreneurial Innovation in Phoenix. Application of VitreOx™ on endoscopes lenses will be demonstrated at SiO2 NanoTech exhibit at the Spring 2016,Meeting of Materials Research Society using sterile applications devices such as our simple applicator, ClearEndoscope. We also demonstrate VitreOx for instrumentations, tools, dials and meters IVitreOx for Instrumentation) and for VitreOx for Athletics and Protective Equipment).

www.sio2nanotech.com - Our new website is up! Thanks to our 2 years of R&D, our 2 new patents & our prototyping with new customers, we are now a FDA registered company for our newest product, VitreOx™ medical. Starting 9/1/15, we will offer a long lasting, bio-compatible, anti-fog VitreOx™ Medical for lenses in otoscopes, laryngoscopes, goggles and loupes, and/or disposable sheaths for all these devices. The minimum duration of our anti-fog effectiveness is 3 hours+ in 50°C steam. Our VitreOx™ performance beats international standard BS EN 166/168-2010, used by US FDA and NIOSH via 42 CFR 94.308, by a factor of more than 1350. BS EN 166/168 standard requires anti-fogs to last 8 seconds. VitreOx™ lasts consistently 3 hours+ in 50°C steam, whether right after application or months & years later, wet or dry. The VitreOx™ fog-free duration of 3 hours+ or 10,800 seconds+ beats our next competitor UVEX HydroShield by a factor 90, as UVEX lasts 2 minutes (120 seconds) with that standard. Most commercial anti-fogs last only 2 seconds under the internationals standards, so we beat most of these by a factor 5000. Most importantly, VitreOx™, made of GRAS materials, is fume-free, non-irritating, non-toxic and benign for eye, skin and inner tissues.
