Ossur AFO Light

$399.99 $348.00

The Ossur AFO Light provides foot drop support only where it is needed, eliminating unnecessary bulk and providing a lightweight cosmetically-appealing look. The orthosis features shock absorbing Flex-Foot® technology and the energy storing properties of carbon fiber to assist with propulsion and ground clearance for a more normalized gait pattern. The AFO Light offers a strong and lightweight carbon fiber AFO solution for people with mild to moderate drop foot caused by different neurological conditions.

The Ossur AFO Light drop foot brace is both lightweight and durable enough for daily use inside all types of shoes.  The heel strut is padded for comfort and has a calf strap that secures the product in place yet allows for easy donning and doffing.  The product allows for controlled ankle plantar flexion during initial contact with the ground for enhanced stability and throughout the foot and ankle during walking.

Ossur AFO Light Features:

  • Flex-foot technology provides dynamic motion and energy return (assisted propulsion of the limb at toe off).
  • Carbon fiber design provides an excellent strength-to-weight ratio.
  • Composed of a footplate, posterior strut, and a calf piece.
  • Silicone padding and a thermo-formable tube cover the heel part of the posterior spring.
  • Calf-piece is connected to the posterior spring via an elastic band.
  • Has excellent weight to strength ratio for enhanced durability.
  • Lightweight design - fits easily inside a shoe.
  • Unique footplate design has a stiffness gradient at the heel and toe. The response becomes stiffer when extra support is needed with a heavy individual, and less stiff when used by a smaller, less heavy person.
  • Gait assistance:  Receives gradual plantar flexion at initial contact when taking a step, and provides medial-lateral stability at mid-stance as the person progresses their body weight over the foot.
  • Supports the foot for ground-clearance during swing phase.
  • Suggested weight range: up to 220 lbs (100kg).
  • Four sizes to fit adults - See our sizing chart tab above for measurement instructions.

NOTE: The Ossur AFO Light is not intended to be used for severe ankle/foot deformities, severe spasticity, M-L instability, fluctuation edema or extreme activity.
