SOFT CONTACT LENSES
One Day Contact lenses
1-Day Acuvue TruEye
1-Day Acuvue TruEye is the world's FIRST
daily disposable contact lens that comes in a new breathable silicone hydrogel
material called Narafilcon A - an innovative silicone hydrogel material
saturated with a locked-in super smooth wetting agent which does not slow
release onto the eye. Narafilcon A delivers 98% oxygen flux to the cornea.
Acuvue's new TruEye contact lenses are
truly remarkable as patients will regain incredible white eyes and comfort at
the end of the day because the super wet and super smooth surface has the
lowest friction coefficient of any daily disposable lens on the market today -
even exceeding Acuvue 1-Day Moist. This is great news for contact lens wearers
experiencing pink eyes after a long day.
Narafilcon A is a new silicone hydrogel
material being used in Johnson & Johnson's new daily disposable lens 1-Day
Acuvue TruEye. With a Dk of 100 and a Dk/t of 118 it increases oxygen flow and
allows the cornea to breathe naturally through the material. As a result,
lenses that are manufactured utilizing this material, promise better wearing
comfort and fewer dry eyes.
