Is that clear? Or should I repeat anything?
Seriously.
Progent has been around a long time, and it is the gold standard for deep cleaning scleral lenses that do NOT have the Hydra PEG coating. However, Progent comes with a case that is too small for scleral lenses. THIS case is the one to substitute... much in the same way that those of us with huge lenses substitute a PROSE disinfection case for the one that comes in the Clear Care kits.
But the important thing to note is that it can't be used with hydrogen peroxide. Hydrogen peroxide cleaning systems require a vented case - that is, either the case that comes with Clear Care (if you have small-diameter scleral lenses) or the PROSE Disinfection Case (if you have larger-diameter scleral lenses).
If you use hydrogen peroxide in THIS case, it may explode. Not a good thing. Please don't do that.
