- Do all ACUVUE® contact lenses offer UV protection?
-
Yes! ACUVUE® contact lenses is the only major brand which blocks more than 97% UVB and 82% UVA rays as standard across the range.1
- Is it necessary to wear sunglasses with ACUVUE® contact lenses?
-
While ACUVUE® contact lenses do provide UV†* protection to the areas they cover, other parts of the eye and surrounding areas are still exposed to UV light. For that reason, ACUVUE® contact lenses are not intended as a replacement for sunglasses. The lenses can be worn with non-prescription sunglasses and should be considered a part of a total light management suite of solutions.
- Can contact lenses be worn while playing sports?
-
Yes, any ACUVUE® Brand contact lenses can be worn during non-water based sports or exercise.
- What is the best contact lens solution to use for cleaning and caring for lenses?
-
ACUVUE® RevitaLens is a great match with ACUVUE® Contact Lenses and other leading brands2. In fact, clinical studies show that the combination of ACUVUE® RevitaLens Multi-Purpose Disinfecting Solution and ACUVUE® Brand Contact Lenses resulted in all-day comfort and healthy ocular surface physiology.3
ACUVUE® OASYS MULTIFOCAL with PUPIL OPTIMISED DESIGN
- Why have you discontinued ACUVUE® OASYS for Presbyopia?
-
We have discontinued ACUVUE® OASYS for Presbyopia in order to continue our mission to provide the best innovations for you and your patients. We offer ACUVUE® OASYS MULTIFOCAL with PUPIL OPTIMISED DESIGN, built on our ACUVUE® OASYS 2-Week platform.
This lens uses the same PUPIL OPTIMISED DESIGN and hybrid back curve technology as found in 1-DAY ACUVUE® MOIST MULTIFOCAL, which delivers consistent performance across Low, Mid and High ADD patients, and across the refractive range, whether you’re fitting a myope or a hyperope.4
What is the difference between ACUVUE® OASYS MULTIFOCAL and ACUVUE® OASYS for Presbyopia?
-
We have significantly advanced the technology of our multifocal lenses for the presbyopic eye since the launch of ACUVUE® OASYS for Presbyopia. ACUVUE® OASYS for Presbyopia is a centre-distance design that uses a ring design with distinct changes in power. While this “multi-zone” ring approach was innovative at the time, it does not account for the natural variation of the pupil size due to age and refractive error.
ACUVUE® OASYS MULTIFOCAL has the same PUPIL OPTIMISED DESIGN as 1-DAY ACUVUE® MOIST Multifocal, which is entirely different from ACUVUE® OASYS for Presbyopia.5 It is the only reusable multifocal lens with PUPIL OPTIMISED DESIGN technology – the technology that optimises the optical design to the pupil size according to age and refractive power.4

UV-absorbing contact lenses are NOT substitutes for protective UV-absorbing eyewear such as UV-absorbing goggles or sunglasses because they do not completely cover the eye and surrounding area. UV transmission measured with -1.00 lens.
