Eight-out-of-ten established MyDay® toric contact lens wearers agree that they love their MyDay® toric lenses.1
When it comes to soft toric contact lenses, studies have provided a roadmap of what’s important to wearers with astigmatism.2-4
One multi-site investigation by Sulley et. al. found 27% of new toric contact lens wearers dropped out during the first year and many within the first two months.2 These patients cited visual problems as the number one reason why they discontinued wearing soft toric contact lenses. Studies have also reported that toric lens wearers drop out at higher rates compared to spherical lens wearers, which may be due to discomfort. 2,3,5
Since comfort and good vision are clearly key to a successful toric lens wearing experience for patients with astigmatism,2-4 eye care professionals (ECPs) can confidently turn to the number one, most prescribed toric contact lenses on the market: MyDay® toric and Biofinity® toric, 6 which share the same unparalleled prescription parameters7 and proven feature designs.*8
Considering MyDay® toric, here is a snapshot of the technology behind the lens, and an insider view of how patients with astigmatism feel about their MyDay® toric contact lenses.
Depend on Clear Visual Performance with Optimized Toric Lens GeometryTM
Found in both MyDay® toric and Biofinity® toric lenses is Optimized Toric Lens GeometryTM which delivers excellent stability, predictable orientation, and clear vision.*8 The Optimized Toric Lens GeometryTM design is trusted by practitioners as the most prescribed toric lens technology on the market.†6
When it comes to delivering on visual performance, 96% of MyDay® toric wearing patients agree their contact lenses provide good vision clarity.9
“My vision is sharper/crisper with MyDay® toric contact lenses because they correct my astigmatism better than other contact lenses,”‡ says MyDay® toric wearer Elizabeth Shearon.
Prescribe Torics that Deliver All-day Comfort
In addition to Optimized Toric Lens GeometryTM, both MyDay® toric and Biofinity® toric lenses feature the
same technology. Aquaform® Technology provides excellent vision,10 a healthy-wearing experience, and all-day comfort due to its ability to retain water throughout the lens material from core to surface, eliminating the need for surface coating or added wetting agents in the lens material.
Aquaform® Technology provides the right balance of moisture, oxygen transmissibility, and modulus due to a unique integration of structures throughout the contact lens material.
In fact, 86% MyDay® toric contact lens wearers agree their contact lenses are comfortable all day.9
“I really like how the MyDay® toric lenses fit my eyes,” says MyDay® toric lens wearer Diane Miller. “They fit better than my previous contacts. They fit so well, that some days I forget I have them in.”
Adds wearer Elizabeth Shearon, “They’re easy to put in, and I’m able to wear them comfortably for 12 hours or more as needed.9 I love them!”
Lean into Toric Lenses with High Oxygen Transmission in an Unparalleled Range
MyDay® toric lenses provide 100% corneal oxygen consumption§ transmitting high levels of oxygen across the entire lens surface to help maintain ocular health.11 They also filter 86% of UVA and 97% of UVB rays.|
Further, MyDay® toric now matches Biofinity® toric’s core prescription range12 and also has the most prescription options of any 1-day lens available.13
