Menicon has just announced the introduction of Magic, daily contact lenses packaged in the world’s thinnest (and extremely hygienic) flat pack.
The revolutionary flat pack, which has been developed with the use of Menicon’s proprietary technology, is eight times thinner than conventional packs used for contact lens storage. This results in unparalleled storage convenience, as the lenses can be easily carried around in a wallet.
The design of the pack makes it also very hygienic, as it always exposes the outside surface of the lens, which makes it less probable that the inner surface of the lens will be touched when opening the pack, which – in turn – prevents transferring bacteria onto the cornea.
The Magic contact lens is made of HEMA-GMA, a material that is characterised by very good water retention, which translates into exceptional all-day comfort.
Menicon stated that the production of the new lenses had started and that they would be available in the spring of 2012.
