Acuvue Oasys for Astigmatism
Acuvue Oasys for
Astigmatism are bi-weekly toric contact lenses produced by Johnson &
Johnson to correct astigmatism. They are a new generation of lenses,
continuing in the tradition of Acuvue Advance for Astigmatism. The manufacturer
affirms wearers may switch from Acuvue Advance to Acuvue Oasys without needing
to visit an eye specialist if all parameters of the lenses remain the same
(diopter, curve, cylinder, axis).
Acuvue Oasys for Astigmatism have a
high oxygen-permeability and remain perfectly stable on the eye. Just like their
spheric version, Acuvue Oasys, Acuvue Oasys for Astigmatism contact lenses are
made from a highly permeable material, SENOFILCON B, and have 38% water content.
Moreover, the lenses are equipped with the brand's patented Hydraclear Plus
technology, which keeps them moist and comfortable throughout the day.
Stable correction
The lenses' Accelerated Stabilisation Design
(ASD) technology provides consistent positioning of the contact lens on the eye.
This technology uses eye blinking to maintain the lens' correct cylindrical
position on the eyeball. Each blink squeezes the lens into the correct position
where its cylinder corrects the irregularity of the cornea.
UV
protection
Acuvue Oasys for Astigmatism contacts are equipped with UV
filters that block more than 95% UV-A and 99% UV-B radiation and protect the
most important parts of eye. For better protection from UV radiation, however,
it is always advisable to wear UV-blocking sunglasses when outside, in order to
protect the entire eye area.
Approved for extended wear
Acuvue
Oasys for Astigmatism contact lenses are designed for a two-week wear cycle.
They should be removed every evening and disinfected in a contact lens case with
solution. The lenses are also approved for extended wear (up to seven days
without removal), but only under the supervision of your eye-care specialist
after a thorough eye examination. If used in this way, the lenses must be
discarded after seven days.

Love the lenses, they don't pop out or move around in my eye. Can wear them all day without any issues.
Generally prefer daily lenses but i wear these bi-weekly lenses because they feel so good on my eye.
Lenses sit perfectly on my eye. Finally i can see really clearly.
