Air Optix Aqua Product Description
Created by manufacturers Alcon & Ciba Vision, Air Optix Aqua are highly breathable monthly contact lenses, renowned for their exceptional level of comfort. Made from silicone hydrogel, creating a slim and lightweight lens, with a barely noticeable presence on your eyes.
Air Optix Aqua Benefits
Air Optix Aqua contact lenses allow eyes to enjoy up to five times the amount of oxygen as other soft contacts, these are some of the most breathable contact lenses around. Coupled with the 33% water content, this feature makes the lenses highly comfortable to wear, keeping eyes safe from dehydration and preventing the onset of dry eyes as the day goes on.
As the lenses allow more oxygen into the eye, it means they are more healthy and comfortable to wear, designed for someone with a busy lifestyle who doesn’t have to compromise on comfort or quality.
How long can you wear Air Optix Aqua contact lenses?
Easy to put in, and to take out, these impressive lenses can be worn daily for up to a month, as long as a nightly cleaning and storing routine is followed. Using a multi-purpose solution such as comfi All-in-One Solution ensures consistently clean lenses when you come to putting them in every morning, while the protein-resistant material of the lens itself makes the chance of picking up any dirt or irritants over the day minimal.
Can you sleep in Air Optix Aqua contact lenses?
Extended wear can also be a wearing option for your lenses, provided this is approved by your optician. In this case, you’d be able to wear your Air Optix Aqua contact lenses continuously, both day and night, for up to a week, without needing to remove them. Once again, however, you'll need to confirm with your optician that your eyes are suited to sleeping in your lenses.
