DigitalBoost™ Technology

Both MyDay Energys® and Biofinity Energys® contact lenses share DigitalBoost™ technology.

Lens Design to Help Reduce Eye Tiredness

DigitalBoost

An innovative single vision aspheric lens design that delivers a +0.3D boost, which helps reduce eye tiredness associated with digital eye strain.

  • May help reduce ciliary muscle stress from overworked muscles during digital device use§2.
  • May help ease accommodative burden - an important contributor to digital eye strain§2.
  • This aids sphere patients’ eyes to better adapt when shifting focus between digital devices and the real world.
  • Which helps with eye tiredness associated with digital device use.
Overworked ciliary muscles

DigitalBoost™ technology wearers were significantly more likely than sphere wearers to say1

  • Their eyes felt less tired during or after working with a computer*.
  • They didn't have to strain to see well after some time working with a computer**.
  • Their eyes hurt less when working with a computer.
  • They didn't have to blink a lot while using the computer at work†.
  • They didn't have heavy eyes at the end of a working day‡.

 

*After 2 weeks of daily wear Biofinity 4,5 ± 1,4 and Biofinity Energys® 3,1 ± 1,5; p<0.05. 

**After 2 weeks of daily wear Biofinity 2,8 ± 0,8 and Biofinity Energys® 1,9 ± 1,0; p<0.05. 

†After 2 weeks Biofinity 2,9 ± 0,6 and Biofinity Energys® 2,2 ± 0,6; p<0.05. 

‡After 2 weeks of daily wear Biofinity 3,0 ± 0,5 and Biofinity Energys® 2,0 ± 0,8; p<0.05.
