Air Optix Aqua (6 lenses)

Air Optix Aqua Monthly Contact Lenses

Air Optix Aqua are monthly contact lenses by Alcon designed for daily wear. The silicone hydrogel material used in these contact lenses is Lotrafilcon B(67%) and the remaining 33% is water. Package contains 6 lenses.

High Oxygen Permeability

Air Optix Aqua Contact Lenses by Alcon (Ciba Vision) take pride (just like Air Optix) in their high oxygen permeability (even 5× higher than other hydrogel lenses), which allows occasional overnight wear on an extended wearing schedule. You should consult the Air Optix Aqua extended wearing schedule with your eye doctor.

We do not recommend you change to these contact lenses without consulting with your eye doctor first, as these lenses differ in their optical properties from other contact lens brands.

Regarding the oxygen permeability of these lenses, are you concerned about the difference between values indicated on our website and those on the box? No worries, they are completely the same! On our website, we use an industry-standard number showing oxygen permeability in relation to thickness of the lens – shown as (Dk/t). This is a value calculated by dividing the oxygen permeability of the lens (Dk) by the thickness of the lens (t). Most manufacturers provide a (Dk/t), which is why we've chosen to use it for all our products. However, your box of lenses may only show the (Dk) value. This just means that your box is showing the base value. It also means that there is, in fact, no difference between the number we show and the one that's on your box.
