What is plasma treated CL? what is the brand name?

bacterial adhesion, improve wettability and enhance patient comfort.
Also, an ammonia plasma treatment has been applied to artificial
corneas to enhance corneal epithelial cell attachment and growth.[/

I wear a plasma treated 'scleral' lens (made from the same material as
