SAN RAMON, Calif., December 11, 2023—To further enable eye care professionals to fit more patients in contact lenses, CooperVision has expanded support for its full range of Biofinity® sphere contact lenses, including Biofinity® XR. With this enhancement, Biofinity® and Biofinity® XR together offer sphere powers from +15.00D to -20.00D and are now available at an equal price and with equal patient rebates across the range.
With Biofinity® contact lenses, eye care professionals can provide vision correction for 99.9% of spherical prescriptions,1 making it possible for patients who may have previously thought they couldn’t wear contact lenses.
“Through CooperVision’s innovation in contact lens design and manufacturing, practitioners have been able to fit virtually all their patients in the most prescribed family of monthly replacement contact lens on the market,”1,2 said Doug Brayer, Director of Marketing, Frequent Replacement Brands, Americas, CooperVision. “Now, we can deliver the extended range prescriptions at the same price and with the same rebate support as the standard range. This presents a significant opportunity for practices to bring spectacle wearers into Biofinity® lenses, increasing their volume of contact lens fits and growing their practice with new wearers.”
CooperVision Biofinity® and Biofinity® XR contact lenses feature Aquaform® Technology, an innovative material technology that hydrates contact lenses to twice their weight in water for natural wettability and incredible comfort.3
