Health / Contact Lenses / Acuvue Oasys Contact Lens

The Acuvue Oasys with Hydraclear Plus by Johnson and Johnson is one of the newest contacts available, and I have to say they are great!  I can't believe the difference.  My previous lens was the Acuvue 2.  These lenses allow 100% more oxygen in and the difference is moister eyes.  The lens is also larger and covers more of the eye.  At first it's a little hard to get used to - it takes about 2 - 3 days to adjust, and after that it's not a problem.  These contacts are actually comfortable to wake up in!  Yes that's right - sleep in them and wake up without feeling that there's a sheet of sandpaper glued to your eyeball.  It helps to add a few drops of lubricating drops before you go to sleep, especially after you've been wearing them a few weeks.  You do need to take them out to clean them every week or so.  The "wear time" on these contacts is 4 weeks if you sleep in them, around 6 if you don't.  I don't know how they are for people with astigmastism since I don't have it.  Overall I highly recommend these lenses - they are so comfortable, they wear longer and you can sleep comfortably in them.  They are more expensive but that's offset by being able to wear them twice as long.
