Bausch and Lomb Ultra for Astigmatism 6 Pack

Overview

Bausch + Lomb Ultra for Astigmatism contact lenses are monthly disposable toric lenses from one of the most established names in eye care. Designed specifically for people with astigmatism, these lenses combine MoistureSeal® Technology for 95% moisture retention for up to 16 hours with OpticAlign® Design — a toric stabilization system with ballasting in the lower hemisphere that achieves rotation at dispensing of just 5° in 94% of patients.

Together these technologies deliver consistent, stable astigmatism correction alongside the all-day comfort that the Bausch + Lomb Ultra lens family is built on.

What Is Astigmatism?

Astigmatism is a common refractive condition caused by an irregular curvature of the cornea or lens of the eye. Rather than being evenly rounded, the eye is shaped more like a rugby ball — causing light to focus at two different points on the retina rather than one, resulting in blurred or distorted vision at various distances.

Common symptoms include blurred vision, ghosting or double images, difficulty with night vision, eye strain, squinting, and headaches. Astigmatism often occurs alongside myopia (nearsightedness) or hyperopia (farsightedness). A standard spherical lens cannot correct it — a toric lens with a reliable stabilization mechanism is required to maintain the precise orientation needed for accurate correction.

If you think you may have astigmatism, consult an eye care professional for a full assessment and toric contact lens fitting.

OpticAlign® Design — How It Works

Accurate astigmatism correction requires the toric lens to maintain a precise, stable orientation on the eye at all times. Even minor lens rotation directly affects visual clarity — this is why toric lens stabilization is the defining performance characteristic of any toric contact lens.

OpticAlign® Design provides ballasting in the lower hemisphere of the lens — a thicker, heavier zone at the bottom that works with the natural pressure and movement of the eyelids during blinking to continuously reorient the lens. Key performance results from clinical evaluation:

• Rotation at dispensing of just 5° in 94% of patients — measured in a 7-investigator, multi-site clinical study on 157 current soft contact lens wearers
• Consistent lens orientation throughout the day during normal activity and movement
• Stable, clear vision without manual lens adjustment
• Reduced visual disturbance from rotation that commonly affects less stable toric lens designs

The orientation mark at the 6 o'clock position also allows the wearer and their eye care professional to visually confirm correct lens placement during insertion and fitting.

MoistureSeal® Technology — How It Works

Monthly lenses can lose moisture progressively throughout a 30-day wear cycle, particularly during the latter part of each day. MoistureSeal® Technology addresses this through a proprietary two-phase manufacturing process that retains moisture within the Samfilcon A material and delivers a highly wettable surface — maintaining 95% of the lens's moisture content for up to 16 hours of daily wear.

This is particularly relevant for toric lens wearers, who may require additional daily lens handling for orientation checks — making lens surface quality and comfort even more important throughout the wear period.

Spherical Aberration Control — What It Addresses

Standard contact lenses can introduce spherical aberration — a type of optical imperfection where light rays passing through the outer edges of the lens focus at a slightly different point than those passing through the center. This can reduce contrast sensitivity and contribute to halos, glare, and softened image clarity, particularly in low-light conditions.

The aspheric optical design of Bausch + Lomb Ultra for Astigmatism is built to reduce both inherent spherical aberration (from the lens material and design) and induced spherical aberration (introduced by the eye's natural optics). The practical benefits include improved visual sharpness and reduced halos and glare — particularly noticeable in night driving, dimly lit environments, and other low-light settings.

Replacement and Care Schedule

Bausch + Lomb Ultra for Astigmatism lenses are designed for a monthly replacement cycle. Each pair should be:

• Removed each night before sleep
• Cleaned after removal with a recommended multi-purpose or peroxide-based contact lens solution
• Stored in a clean case with fresh solution overnight — never reuse old solution
• Replaced with a fresh pair every 30 days

Replace lenses every 30 days regardless of comfort. Replace your lens case every three months.

Who Are Bausch + Lomb Ultra for Astigmatism Lenses Best For?

• People with astigmatism — monthly toric correction for those experiencing the blur, ghosting, or visual distortion of astigmatism alongside myopia or hyperopia
• Wearers with dry or sensitive eyes — MoistureSeal® Technology's 95% moisture retention for 16 hours supports all-day comfort for those prone to dryness
• Digital device users — sustained moisture retention is particularly beneficial for wearers who experience end-of-day dryness from prolonged screen use
• Night drivers — Spherical Aberration Control reduces halos and glare in low-light conditions, improving visual confidence when driving after dark
• Active lifestyles — OpticAlign® Design's clinical stabilization performance ensures consistent toric orientation during sport, exercise, and dynamic activity
• Those seeking a first-fit toric lens — 94% of patients achieving 5° rotation at dispensing makes this a strong option for new toric lens wearers

Individual suitability varies. Always confirm with your eye care professional before purchasing.
