MyDay vs Clariti 1 Day — which CooperVision daily lens has better oxygen performance?

MyDay vs Clariti 1 Day: Which CooperVision Daily Lens Has Better Oxygen Performance?

CooperVision's two daily silicone hydrogel lenses share Aquaform® Technology but differ in material, oxygen transmissibility, and price. For wearers prioritizing oxygen performance, here is a precise comparison.

Feature MyDay Clariti 1 Day
Material Stenfilcon A Somofilcon A
Dk/t 100 86
Water Content 54% 56%
Aquaform® Technology Yes Yes
UV Protection Class 2 (~85% UVA / ~96% UVB) Class 2
Toric Version MyDay Toric Clariti 1 Day Toric
Price Point Higher More accessible

Why the Dk/t Difference Matters

MyDay's Dk/t of 100 represents approximately 16% higher oxygen transmissibility than Clariti 1 Day's Dk/t of 86. For the majority of daily lens wearers, both levels are sufficient for healthy daily wear of up to 16 hours. The clinically meaningful difference arises for wearers with a history of corneal hypoxia, those who regularly extend wear beyond 12 hours, or those transitioning from high-Dk/t monthly lenses.

  • • Choose MyDay if oxygen transmissibility is a priority, or you wear lenses for long daily periods
  • • Choose Clariti 1 Day for CooperVision Aquaform® comfort at a more accessible price, when elevated Dk/t is not specifically required

Both lenses require a valid prescription. Your eye care professional can advise on the best choice for your ocular health needs.
