Acuvue Oasys for Astigmatism
Acuvue Oasys for
Astigmatism are bi-weekly toric contact lenses produced by Johnson &
Johnson to correct astigmatism. They are a new generation of lenses,
continuing in the tradition of Acuvue Advance for Astigmatism. The manufacturer
affirms wearers may switch from Acuvue Advance to Acuvue Oasys without needing
to visit an eye specialist if all parameters of the lenses remain the same
(diopter, curve, cylinder, axis).
Acuvue Oasys for Astigmatism have a
high oxygen-permeability and remain perfectly stable on the eye. Just like their
spheric version, Acuvue Oasys, Acuvue Oasys for Astigmatism contact lenses are
made from a highly permeable material, SENOFILCON B, and have 38% water content.
Moreover, the lenses are equipped with the brand's patented Hydraclear Plus
technology, which keeps them moist and comfortable throughout the day.
Stable correction
The lenses' Accelerated Stabilisation Design
(ASD) technology provides consistent positioning of the contact lens on the eye.
This technology uses eye blinking to maintain the lens' correct cylindrical
position on the eyeball. Each blink squeezes the lens into the correct position
where its cylinder corrects the irregularity of the cornea.
UV
protection
Acuvue Oasys for Astigmatism contacts are equipped with UV
filters that block more than 95% UV-A and 99% UV-B radiation and protect the
most important parts of eye. For better protection from UV radiation, however,
it is always advisable to wear UV-blocking sunglasses when outside, in order to
protect the entire eye area.
Approved for extended wear
Acuvue
Oasys for Astigmatism contact lenses are designed for a two-week wear cycle.
They should be removed every evening and disinfected in a contact lens case with
solution. The lenses are also approved for extended wear (up to seven days
without removal), but only under the supervision of your eye-care specialist
after a thorough eye examination. If used in this way, the lenses must be
discarded after seven days.

I can't find lenses that march my perspiration
Report commentHello. Please contact our customer service department at info@alensa.co.uk. Thanks, Alensa
Are these lenses multifocal?
Report commentHi Kim. No, these Toric lenses are to correct Astigmatism, a refractive error in which the cornea or lens does not have a perfectly curved shape. Multifocal lenses will be labelled 'multifocal' or 'for Presbyopia.' Thanks, Alensa

My 11 year old daughter only needs contact lenses for Trampolining and only wears them 2 maybe 3 times a week to training for maybe 5hrs maximum. Dailies would be better but she needs +5.50 in her left eye therefore we had to go for 2 weekly. Could we use them for longer than 2 weeks??
Report commentAfter continual problems these lenses were recommended to me by my optician. Bi-weekly lenses are perfect for me, they feel great every time I put them in and my eyes never feel tired.
Report commentI currently use purevision 2 with a base curve of 8.9 As these acuvue have a base curve of 8.6 would they be ok to use?
Report commentHi,
Thanks for your comment.
We would always recommend consulting with your optician before purchasing lenses with a different base curve.
Hi, my left eye cylinder is -2.50 and right is -2.00. But they just do -2.25 and -1.75. How come ?

Hello, can you provide any insight about Acuvue oasys astigmatism vs Air optix? Many thanks - K.
Report commentHello Kenny, These are 2 excellent lenses with nearly identical properties. The main difference is the wearing schedule. The Acuvue Oasys lenses are intended to be discarded every 2 weeks, and the Air Optix Aqua lenses are monthly. Both can be worn on an extended wear basis with approval of your eye care specialist.

Can you wear Acuvue oasys for astigmatism contacts for a full month if you don't wear them overnight?
Report commentHi David, you can wear Acuvue Oasys for Astigmatism lenses overnight, if instructed by your optician. However, they are bi-weekly lenses meant to be discarded every 14 days, so you should not wear them for a full month.
Are Acuvue Oasys for astigmatism monthly lenses or fortnightly? When I started wearing them, I thought they were monthly, but perhaps I should be replacing them more often?
Report commentDear Priya, yes, Acuvue Oasys for astigmatism contact lenses are intended to be replaced every 14 days. If you are wearing them overnight, they should be replaced every 7 days. Wearing any lenses longer than the recommended time can potentially cause vision and health problems.
Very pleased to find acuvue oasys for astigmatism contact lenses cheap here. Much better price than my optician was quoting me. I'll definitely recommend these to friends.
