One of the largest manufacturers of medical devices, pharmaceutical and consumer packaged goods, Johnson & Johnson, also develops and produces Acuvue, an extremely popular brand of contacts. The members of the family (Oasys, TruEye and Moist) differ in many respects but share manufacturer’s signature high quality and advanced technologies ensuring exceptional comfort and safety. They come in various options including regular lenses for spherical correction, toric for astigmatism and multifocal for presbyopia. What's more, you can buy them in different box quantities for your convenience.
Acuvue Oasys are two weekly disposables made of a cutting-edge silicone hydrogel material allowing so much air to pass through to the cornea that the lenses are approved for seven days of continuous wear. What’s more, thanks to the use of Johnson & Johnson’s patented Hydraclear Plus technology, they remain moist all the time. This is particularly appreciated by patients suffering from dry eye syndrome. The Oasys line is available in boxes of 6, 12 and 24 lenses so you can stock up for a very long time by ordering just 2 boxes at a time.
The next product in the range, Acuvue Oasys 1 Day, takes comfort to an even higher level. With the help of HydraLuxe technology (also present exclusively in lenses developed by J&J), these contacts create a tear-like film that blends with the natural tear film, as a result of which there’s little risk of dryness and you can wear the lenses without irritation even under very difficult conditions. These daily contact lenses are appreciated for their amazing comfort and convenience by patients all over the world, also the ones who previously used the older generation of daily Acuvue contacts.
When developing 1 Day Acuvue TruEye, J&J aimed at satisfying the needs of modern life and keeping your eyes as healthy as possible. This is why the lenses are characterised by particularly high oxygen permeability, excellent protection against harmful UV radiation as well as extraordinary smoothness, achieved with the use of their Hydraclear technology. The above-mentioned advantages make these lenses unique on a global scale. Trueye lenses are an example of the classic flagship products from J&J's portfolio and will be gradually replaced by newer successors.
What distinguishes the next member of the Acuvue family, 1 Day Acuvue Moist, is Johnson & Johnson’s proprietary Lacreon technology, which utilises a special hydrating agent, ensuring your eyes never get dry and receive plenty of oxygen all day long. If you tend to experience discomfort wearing other contact lenses, chances are you’ll love these and other innovations introduced by J&J as part of the company’s amazing Etafilcon A material.
The same fantastic experience is provided by J&J’s daily disposable multifocal’s, which feature (in addition to all the described technologies created for the Etafilcon A material) innovations such as the Hybrid Back Curve (an advanced optical solution which results in crystal clear vision at various distances) and the so-called EYE-INSPIRED™ DESIGN, which works by repelling debris and deposits, at the same time preserving moisture within the lens, this way reducing the possibility of eye irritation.
Perhaps the most extraordinary member of the Johnson family is Acuvue Oasys with Transitions. These photochromic contact lenses are able to change colour in response to bright light therefore blocking the amount of light reaching the eye. It's particularly useful during bright sunny days but also while driving at night in heavy traffic. What's more, they also block blue light emitted by screens thus preventing issues with falling asleep caused by over-stimulation.
It's definitely worth noting that all lenses manufactured by J&J feature a UV filter which protects your eyes from dangerous UV rays. Acuvue is the only major brand of contact lenses to implement UV filters across all their lenses. Filters utilised by the Acuvue contacts block over 97% of UVB and 81% of UVA radiation reaching the cornea. As the lenses cover only some parts of your eyes, you should still wear sunglasses on top of your contacts to protect your entire eyes and the surrounding skin from the sun.
At the Optyk Rozmus online shop, we also stock other J&J lens care related products, such as Blink Contacts (soothing eye drops improving tear film stability and providing excellent comfort immediately after application) and Acuvue Revitalens (previously known as Complete Revitalens), a highly effective cleaning solution capable of not only killing more than 99% of bacteria and other dangerous pathogens but also rewetting your contact lenses and keeping them fresh for longer periods. By having such an extended offer, Johnson and Johnson assures that all your contact lens needs are fulfilled. It is recommended to use their products together for best compatibility.
