AIR OPTIX plus HydraGlyde Contact Lenses
Air Optix plus HydraGlyde are innovative monthly
contact lenses by Alcon and
are a newly improved version of Air Optix Aqua.
They are intended to correct spherical eye defects and are suitable for
continuous wear, thanks to their improved oxygen permeability. These lenses are
made from a silicone-hydrogel material and feature a light blue tint for easier
handling.
Air Optix plus HydraGlyde are sold in a package of 6
lenses. We also offer a smaller package of Air Optix
plus Hydraglyde contact lenses.
Moisture Matrix technology
Alcon’s patented Moisture Matrix technology helps
the lenses attract and retain moisture. This added moisture creates a protective
layer that keeps the lenses hydrated throughout the day, and for the duration of
monthly wear.
SmartShield technology
Additionally, Air Optix plus HydraGlyde lenses
feature Alcon’s SmartShield technology, which also helps maintain optimal
moisture. SmartShield technology helps reduce lipid and other deposits on the
lenses, keeping them clean and comfortable throughout the wearing period.
Contact lenses designed for extended wear
Air Optix plus HydraGlyde may be worn without
removing for up to 6 nights. It’s important to follow your optician’s advice
regarding this type of wear, as it is not suitable for everyone.
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.

How often do I change them?
Hi, Mary, These are monthly lenses, so they are good to wear for 30 days as long as they are properly maintained, i.e. stored in a cleaning solution every night.
Thanks, Alensa
Do you do bi focal please
Thank you for your question, We unfortunately do not have any Bi-focal contact lenses. In case you have any further question, you can contact our customer service at info@alensa.com.mt
When I use them my eyes get very dry and I have to use systane drops after taking them off. Is there any problem with my eyes? Shall I continue using contact lenses? Thanks Godfrey
Very impressed with these lenses. I'm able to sleep in them because they are that comfortable. Would recommend them to anyone that wears monthly contact lenses.
