Import Tips
• Provide detailed lens parameters (base curve, diameter, power range) in commercial invoices for customs verification against FDA listings
• Avoid misclassification by specifying 'unmounted lenses' in entry docs; bulk shipments often trigger review
• Comply with biocompatibility testing records per ISO 10993; pitfall is missing lot traceability for recalls
