Soft toric lenses are nearing a major milestone: the fiftieth anniversary of their FDA approval.1 Thanks to subsequent innovations in technology and design through the years, it’s no surprise that modern toric lens fits continue to climb and now represent about one-third of all soft lens prescriptions.2
CooperVision is a recognized industry leader3 in today’s modern toric landscape, consistently setting the bar for innovative toric lens designs.4 In fact, Biofinity® toric is the #1 most prescribed toric lens on the US market.5 And with shared material technologies and design, eye care professionals can keep their patients in the #1 most prescribed6 toric design on the US market with MyDay® toric.6
Nearly 9-out-of 10 patients who moved to MyDay® toric say that they love their lenses.7 Here are five other insights from patients who switched from Biofinity® toric to MyDay® toric:
1. An Easy Switch7
A recent survey that polled patients about their lens-wearing experience after switching from Biofinity® toric to MyDay® toric found:
- 97% of wearers agree that switching from Biofinity® toric to MyDay® toric contact lenses was easy.7
- Additionally, 95% of wearers say they are happy that they switched to MyDay® toric contact lenses.8
2. Same All-Day, Incredible Comfort9 in a Daily Disposable
Comfort is essential in contact lens wearing success, and conversely, represents a main reason why patients with astigmatism drop out of CL wear.10-12
To address comfort, CooperVision developed Aquaform® Technology which is found in both Biofinity® toric and MyDay® toric. Aquaform® Technology is an innovative material science that provides a high level of oxygen permeability, a naturally wettable material, and optimum modulus for a comfortable and flexible lens.9 When comparing their comfort experience:

When switching to MyDay® toric:
- 91% of patients agree that their overall vision in MyDay® toric lenses is the same or better than it was in Biofinity® toric lenses.7
