OCTI Expands IDEAL SiHy Dailies Distribution to Prairie Eye Clinic in Vermillion, SD
Revolutionary AI-Engineered Contact Lenses Now Available at Designated Prescriber Location
San Diego, CA – February 2, 2026 — OCTI, the manufacturer of IDEAL SiHy Dailies, today announced that Prairie Eye Clinic in Vermillion, SD has been approved as a designated prescriber clinic for its revolutionary line of AI-engineered daily disposable contact lenses. The approval expands patient access to IDEAL SiHy Dailies’ premium comfort and performance at a fraction of the cost of leading premium brands.
IDEAL SiHy Dailies represent a significant advancement in contact lens technology, featuring AI-driven optics, manufacturing and lens design that deliver exceptional clarity and all-day comfort. The lenses utilize an advanced aspheric design engineered to reduce distortion, distribute weight evenly and minimize friction points for a wear experience patients describe as “feeling nothing.”
Early patient response has been overwhelmingly positive, with 95% of patients reporting sharper, crisper vision compared to their previous contact lenses. Patients also report a more comfortable experience throughout the day and the ability to wear the lenses longer without the dryness and irritation common with other brands.
“We’re excited to bring this game-changing technology to patients in the Vermillion area. … IDEAL SiHy Dailies deliver the premium performance patients expect from high-end daily disposables, but at $600 per year instead of the $1,000 to $1,200 most premium brands charge. With vision insurance benefits, many patients can enjoy premium contact lenses for less than $1 per day per eye.”
– Dr. Travis Larson, an optometrist at Prairie Eye Clinic and former USD athlete.
IDEAL SiHy Dailies are dispensed exclusively at OCTI’s designated prescriber locations — a carefully selected network of vision care clinics that ensure patients receive proper evaluation, fitting and access to the technology. Prairie Eye Clinic is proud to serve as the exclusive IDEAL SiHy Dailies provider in the Vermillion area.
“Our designated prescriber model exists to protect patients. … By partnering with exceptional clinics like Prairie Eye Clinic, we ensure every patient gets the right fit and the full benefit of what IDEAL SiHy Dailies were engineered to deliver.”
– Eric Lee, Vice President of OCTI
