Acuvue Oasys 1 Day for Astigmatism are toric contacts that were designed for correcting astigmatism, a refractive error that occurs due to the unequal shape of the cornea or lens.
When you have this condition, the light entering through your eyes is scattered at multiple points on the retina. This is the light-sensitive part of your eye and because of this, it causes blurred or distorted vision. The good news is that this specific product can correct this.
The Acuvue Oasys 1 Day for Astigmatism has a torus shape that creates different focusing powers that correct astigmatism. It is made from Senofilcon A, a silicone hydrogel material that offers high flexibility and better moisture retention in comparison to other contact lens materials. It has enhanced water absorption and has up to 5x more oxygen permeability than regular hydrogel contacts.
These toric contacts are daily disposables. That means you can only wear them once before discarding and replacing them with a fresh pair of lenses.
You don’t have to worry about cleaning, maintenance, or storage anymore since they are made for single use. You just need to wear, discard, and then replace it with a fresh pair the next day.
These lenses are made from a fragile material which cannot withstand multiple uses. Keep in mind that wearing them more than once may put you at risk of severe eye infections.
Developed by Johnson and Johnson, HydraLuxe is a proprietary wetting technology that uses a tear-infused design to mimic mucins. These are high-molecular weight glycoproteins that aid in keeping the tear film stable. The Acuvue Oasys 1 Day for Astigmatism has this technology in order to keep the moisture in your eyes and keep them hydrated all day.
The unique BLINK STABILIZED® Design will keep your contact lens in place. You see, toric contact lenses for astigmatism require a fixed orientation in order to give you clear vision. In fact, even small movements can actually affect your visual acuity, so it's important that these lenses stay at the right position.
This design makes use of the four thick zones on the lens, which realigns with the eyes naturally every time you blink. And because of this, the contacts never move out of place so you can have clear vision all day. And together with HydraLuxe technology, this will keep your eyes hydrated all the time.
These daily toric lenses from the Acuvue Oasys series feature a visibility tint and offer Class 1 UV protection, the highest level of protection you’ll ever find in a contact lens.
They can protect your eyes from up to 96.1% UVA and 99.9% UVB rays. Such rates are higher as compared to other toric lenses that also offer UV protection.
These daily toric contact lenses are ideal for individuals who have busy lifestyles and are not keen on cleaning and maintaining their contacts.
With it having a silicone hydrogel material, these contacts can give you long-lasting hydration even if you spend a lot of time in dry or challenging environments.
