Product Information

Full details

The Air Optix plus HydraGlyde Multifocal lenses are designed for individuals with presbyopia seeking a balance between sharp vision correction and long-lasting ocular hydration. By leveraging advanced HydraGlyde Moisture Matrix technology, these monthly replacement lenses help keep the lens surface moist for all-day comfort, though they require a strict nightly cleaning and storage routine as they are not intended for continuous overnight wear.

FAQs

How often should I replace these lenses?

These are monthly disposable lenses, meaning they should be discarded and replaced with a fresh pair every 30 days.

Can I sleep while wearing these lenses?

No, these lenses are not approved for overnight wear. You must remove and clean them every night.

What is the primary benefit of HydraGlyde technology?

It provides a moisture-rich surface that helps the lens retain hydration longer, reducing discomfort for those with dry eyes.

Are these lenses resistant to protein deposits?

Yes, the SmartShield technology helps create a barrier against protein and lipid deposits that can build up during the day.

Can I use any lens solution with these?

It is best to use a high-quality multi-purpose solution, but always follow the specific recommendation provided by your eye doctor.

Is it normal to experience an adjustment period?

Yes, when switching to multifocal lenses, it may take your brain a few days to fully adjust to the transition between near and distance vision zones.

Troubleshooting

Vision feels blurry or distorted

Check that the lens is not inside out or coated in debris. If it remains blurry, verify the lens is clean and inspect for any tears.

Lens feels dry or uncomfortable

Ensure you are using a rewetting drop compatible with soft contact lenses and confirm your cleaning solution effectively removes surface deposits.

Difficulty seeing at specific distances

Consult your eye care professional to ensure your current multifocal power settings are still appropriate for your visual needs.
