History

In September of 1994, X-Cel Contacts became a division of the Walman Optical family. In years following, PC Optical, Soderberg Contact Lens, Ideal Optics, Westcon and Hydrogel Vision (Extreme H2O) have joined X-Cel in representing the contact lens division of Walman. X-Cel is an industry leading manufacturer of custom soft and gas permeable contact lenses.  We have ten locations nationwide, so no matter where you practice, you can be assured we have a location near you.  With a phone system connecting all ten locations, you are sure to get a human on the other end, a must according to our customers.  X-Cel’s international division continues to grow with a strong presence in South America and continues to expand globally.

No one in the optical industry gives you such an extensive selection of custom soft and gas perm proprietary lens designs. With 34 lens designs, we think you will find that our many specialty products offer solutions for all visual needs.  Quality is of utmost importance at X-Cel and no lens goes out the door without passing through our quality system.  With an NCLE certified consultation staff adding up to over 325 years of experience, our doctors are sure to get the expertise they expect and deserve when dealing with difficult fits. Combining the doctor’s years of education and clinical experience with our lens specific consultation is the best way to ensure each and every fit is a successful one.
