1-Day Acuvue Brand TruEye Contact Lenses have recently been introduced by Johnson & Johnson as the first silicone hydrogel daily contact lenses on the US market. The latest issue of Contact Lens Spectrum presents the impressions of eye care practitioners concerning these lenses.
Among other things, they mention adequate movement of the lenses, outstanding vision (fitted with the lenses, the patients are able to see the 20/15 or even the 20/10 line), comfort throughout the day (especially at the end of the day, compared to hydrogel lenses; the comfort is similar to the one experienced by those who wear eyeglasses), no problems inserting the lenses, no irritation even in patients with dry eye.
The practitioners also noticed that their patients who had switched to 1-Day Acuvue Brand TruEye lenses started to wear them longer, even 16 hours a day. They believe that the lenses should especially be recommended to adults who have very active lifestyles (e.g. athletes), have allergies and some eye conditions, as well as children.
