AIR OPTIX® plus HydraGlyde® Multifocal Contact Lenses
Designed To Provide Comfort and Seamless Vision At All Distances, Near Through Far.1
FEATURING THE SAME GREAT OPTICAL DESIGN FOUND IN DAILIES TOTAL1® MULTIFOCAL AND TOTAL30® MULTIFOCAL
Give Your Presbyopic Patients Consistent Comfort From Day 1 To Day 301,2*
*Based on clinical studies with AIR OPTIX® AQUA lenses.
Innovative Precision Profile™ design created for predictable, seamless vision3
Smooth progression of power gradients for clear, uninterrupted vision from near, to intermediate, to distance
Centre-near design works synergistically with the eye’s natural pupillary function.3,4
- Unique optical zone size optimized for a wide range of pupil sizes
- Improve near vision without compromising distance
Two Unique Technologies
SmartShield® Technology Helps Deliver Superior Overall Cholesterol Deposit Resistance Throughout the Lens5-7
SmartShield® Technology Creates an Ultra-thin Protective Layer to:
- Minimize the exposed silicone7
- Protect lenses from irritating deposits all month long5,6
- Support a stable tear film and maintain wettability6,7
- AIR OPTIX® plus HydraGlyde® contact lenses with SmartShield® Technology helps resist lens parameter changes from everyday use of cosmetics, hand creams and makeup removers8-10
SmartShield® Technology Helps Deliver Superior Overall Cholesterol Deposit Resistance Throughout the Lens.5-7
*Overall superior cholesterol deposit resistance of AIR OPTIX® plus HydraGlyde® contact lenses, as compared to ACUVUE^ OASYS^ Lenses, PureVision^ lenses, Biofinity^ lenses and Avaira^ lenses, lenses worn daily for the manufacturer-recommended replacement period. CLEAR CARE® PLUS Cleaning & Disinfecting Solution used for cleaning and disinfection. All differences between AIR OPTIX® plus HydraGlyde® contact lenses and competitive brands statistically significant (p<0.05).
HydraGlyde® Moisture Matrix Technology surrounds lenses in long lasting surface moisture to help keep the lens surface hydrated11,12
Retains longer-lasting lens surface moisture after 16 hours of simulated wear.13-15*
*Based on ex vivo iDDrop System testing on TOTAL30® lenses worn 30 days (p<0.05). ACUVUE VITA, ACUVUE OASYS, Biofinity and ULTRA contact lenses tested out of pack. All out of pack lenses were tested in an identical manner, soaked in a PBS (phosphate-buffered saline solution) for 16 hours plus/minus 2 hours (p<0.05).
