Good To Know

What Are Multifocal Contacts?

Multifocal contact lenses are designed to correct Presbyopia also known as age-related far-sightedness or age-related long-sightedness.

Multifocal contact lenses correct presbyopia by incorporating a range of prescription powers across the lens so that you are able to focus close to and in the distance.

Presbyopia is an eye condition that makes it harder to focus on objects close to you. This usually happens around the age of forty but can happen at any point in your life. People who are already quite near-sighted, may not notice presbyopia initially, thinking their vision is improving, but eventually everyone ends up needing reading glasses or Toric contact lenses.

What Is HydraGlyde Moisture Matrix?

HydraGlyde® Moisture Matrix is Alcons' proprietary moisture technology designed for moisturizing soft contact lenses, and specially designed for silicone hydrogel contact lenses. 

HydraGlyde is a reconditioning agent that embeds in soft contact lenses helping their surface to keep moist, improving comfort levels and wearing times of the contact lenses. The addition of the HydraGlyde moisture Matrix allows you to wear the contact lenses for longer and even nap in your lenses, and if approved by your Optometrist even overnight.

Are Air Optix Plus HydraGlyde Silicone Hydrogel Contacts?

Yes. Air Optix plus HydraGlyde are a silicone hydrogel contact lens, allowing them to retain moisture and keeping your eyes fresh and healthy all day long. They are particularly resilient to protein or deposit build up helping to give your eyes that contact lens free feel, even in air conditioned offices or after hours at a computer screen.

Can I sleep In Air Optix Plus HydraGlyde Silicone Hydrogel Contacts?

Yes As Air Optix plus HydraGlyde are silicone hydrogel contact lenses they are ideal for people who like to nap in their contact lenses, occasionally forget to take them out overnight, or contact lens wearer who want to see throughout their long haul flights. 

Air Optix plus HydraGlyde are approved for continuous wear but always speak to your Optometrist before wearing extended wear contact lenses.
