CIBA VISION introduces its latest silicone hydrogel innovation – AIR OPTIX™ AQUA breathable contact lenses*, which deliver an advanced combination of oxygen and moisture for a healthy, natural feeling. The lens also offers excellent initial as well as all-day comfort. AIR OPTIX AQUA lenses start and stay comfortable with the new AQUA Moisture System, which includes: - A unique moisture agent that helps lubricate the lens for initial comfort
- A patented lens material that helps maintain moisture by minimizing the rate of lens dehydrationi for comfort all day, and
- An ultra-smooth surface with superior wettabilityii and excellent deposit resistanceiii for comfort every day.
AIR OPTIX AQUA has a recommended replacement schedule of up to 4 weeks. For many patients, replacing their lenses on a monthly basis will be easier to remember and may help increase patient satisfaction, promoting higher compliance to the recommended replacement schedule. Clinical research shows the lens sustains its performance through a month of weariv, with no significant difference in subjective patient ratings of overall vision or comfort between 2 and 4 weeks . AIR OPTIX AQUA is approved for daily wear or up to 6 nights of extended wear. Visit airoptix.com for more information. * Dk/t 138 @ -3.00D.
