Product Description
Air Optix Plus HydraGlyde for Astigmatism contacts are monthly disposable toric contacts that deliver clear vision and comfort from day 1 to 30. They correct astigmatism; a refractive error that causes blurry or distorted vision due to the uneven shape of the cornea or lens. You can wear Air Optix daily for 30 days or continuously for up to six nights and seven days, after which you should discard and replace them with a new pair.
Air Optix for Astigmatism combines two innovative technologies for comfort; SmartShield technology which retains moisture and protects the eye from irritating deposits, and HydraGlyde Moisture Matrix, which attracts and maintains moisture on the eyes throughout the day.
Alcon Air Optix for Astigmatism also features the proprietary Precision Balance 8|4 lens design for improved stability and performance. This design works with the eye’s natural blinking to ensure lens fit and stability for a month of wear.
Air Optix HydraGlyde for Astigmatism 6 Pack contacts are made from Lotrafilcon B, a soft silicone hydrogel material with high oxygen permeability that keeps the eyes clear, white, and healthy. Shop for Air Optix for Astigmatism 6 Pack contacts on WebEyeCare.
Recommended Replacement Schedule for Air Optix Plus HydraGlyde for Astigmatism Contacts
Air Optix for Astigmatism contacts are monthly disposable contacts that you can wear daily for 30 days, after which you should either discard them or replace with a new pair. They also have the highest oxygen permeability of any soft toric lens and are approved for extended or overnight wear.
You can wear Air Optix for astigmatism 6-pack contacts continuously for six nights and seven days, after which you have to take them out, dispose and replace them with a new pair.
Not everyone can use extended-wear contacts, so you may need to discuss this with your eye care professional to devise a healthy wearing schedule. Wearing extended wear contacts longer than necessary may put the eyes at risk of infections, corneal ulcers, and vision loss.
Extra Features of Air Optix Plus HydraGlyde for Astigmatism Contacts
Air Optix Plus HydraGlyde for Astigmatism contacts deliver superior comfort and performance with the following features:
- SmartShield Technology
- HydraGlyde Moisture Matrix
- Precision Balance 8|4 Design
SmartShield is Alcon’s proprietary contact lens technology that prevents deposit buildup by covering the outer surface of the lens with a protective layer. This technology creates a surface that allows tears to spread evenly over the lens, promoting moisture retention and shielding the eyes against deposits. SmartShield technology also protects the lens against issues that may arise from the daily use of cosmetics and beauty products.
HydraGlyde Moisture Matrix is a proprietary wetting technology that attracts and retains moisture in soft contact lenses, especially silicone hydrogel lenses. This technology involves a block copolymer that embeds itself within the lens surface, surrounding the lens with a lasting moisture envelope that ensures all-day hydration.
Precision Balance 8|4 is a unique design for toric contacts that works with the eye’s natural blinking mechanism to ensure the lenses’ fit and stability. It uses two anchor points for stabilization and three scribe marks at 3, 6, and 9’ o’clock to support correct lens insertion and fitting. This design keeps the level of lens oscillation with each blink as small as possible, leaving users with a more stabilized lens and a better overall lens-wearing experience.
What Kind of Lifestyle Do Air Optix Plus HydraGlyde for Astigmatism Contacts Fit Best?
Air Optix Plus HydraGlyde for Astigmatism contacts are ideal for people who want convenient monthly disposable contact lenses. They have high oxygen permeability and excellent moisture retention, making them a great choice for individuals with dry, sensitive eyes.
Air Optix contacts for astigmatism are approved for extended wear, making them an excellent option for people who often take short naps and are likely to fall asleep in their contacts. They are also great for people with unpredictable schedules like military personnel, emergency workers, and outdoor lovers who need contacts for long periods but may not be able to care for their contacts.

Introducing the Air Optix HydraGlyde for Astigmatism 6 Pack. These lenses have been tailored to cater to the unique visual challenges faced by people with astigmatism, a common eye condition that affects how light enters the eye, causing blurred or distorted vision. This review will walk you through the key features of these advanced lenses and what they could mean for your ocular health and everyday experiences.
Our review process involved real-life testing with several participants to cover various facets, such as the material they're made of, how well they keep your eyes moist, their ability to protect against harmful UV rays, and, of course, how comfortable they are to use.
Material
Air Optix HydraGlyde for Astigmatism lenses are made from Lotrafilcon B, a flexible and comfortable material that's well-known in the contact lens world.
It lets five times more oxygen reach your cornea compared to regular hydrogel lenses. This helps keep your eyes white and healthy and reduces the chances of eye troubles.
Plus, they're great for users who spend time in dry conditions or stare at screens a lot.
Hydration
These lenses come with a feature called HydraGlyde Moisture Matrix. It's like a moisture magnet that keeps your lenses wetter for longer.
This means less dryness and irritation, especially if you're in environments that suck the moisture out of the air or if you spend your day glued to a screen.
Think of it like having a little moisture bubble around your eyes.
UV Blocking
While these lenses are fantastic for clarity and comfort, they don't have a built-in UV protection.
That means if you're going outside, you'll need to grab some UV-blocking sunglasses to protect your peepers from the sun's harmful rays. The sun's UV light can lead to problems like cataracts, so it's essential to be extra careful.
Usage
They're made to be replaced every month, which is great for keeping things fresh and hygienic. You can wear them daily or keep them in for up to six nights and seven days in a row.
But remember: only wear them overnight if your eye doctor gives you the green light. Regular check-ups will help figure out the best routine for your eyes.
Comfort
Thanks to their Precision Balance 8|4 technology, these lenses stay put and give you sharp vision without the annoying blurriness that can happen with astigmatism.
They also have a cool feature called SmartShield Technology that helps keep your tears and lenses playing nice together, so you don't get that dry, gritty feeling. Users say they're comfy for long periods, which is a big win for those who are always on the go.
Based on a white paper created by Jessica Mathew, OD, PhD, FAAO1, there's a need for these lenses to maintain proper orientation and minimize the oscillation for clear vision and comfort. The paper also explains how tear film stability over the lens surface is important in preventing dryness and maintaining consistent visual quality throughout the day.
Our Final Recommendation
The Air Optix HydraGlyde for Astigmatism lenses are a solid choice for those who need a reliable monthly contact lens with advanced features. They keep your eyes hydrated and healthy, but you'll need to remember to bring along UV-blocking sunglasses and check with your eye doctor about extended wear.
The investment might be a bit higher, but the comfort and clarity could be worth it. Make sure to chat with your eye care professional to see if these are the right fit for your unique visual needs.
