Throughout my career, I've enjoyed great support from contact lens manufacturers and representatives. In many cases, I've been granted special access to new products as they've emerged. Some have been great, others have been disappointing and others still have given mixed results but remain in our lineup because, although they may not be right for everyone, they provide great results for certain patients. I have never believed that one approach is right for every contact lens patient. That's why I have one of the largest diagnostic contact lens inventories in the valley.
Sometimes a new product is just new but doesn't really offer anything better or even different from what is already available in the marketplace. We've just received our fitting set of ACUVUE Brand Oasys 1-Day with HydraLuxe from Vistakon. In this case (literally), I feel that this is not just a new product. Having tried them myself for over the past couple of weeks, I feel that these lenses offer something very special. Unprecedented comfort. They are easy to handle and the initial comfort, as well as end-of-day comfort is unlike anything I've tried before. If you have dry eyes (welcome to southeastern Idaho) or if you've had other difficulties wearing contacts, you may do very well with this product. Lenses have a wide range of spherical powers ranging from -0.50 to -12.00 diopters and +0.50 to +8.00 diopters.
The ACUVUE Oasys 1-Day with HydraLuxe are for daily disposable wear which means you get a fresh lens every day. Daily disposable lenses are very convenient for regular wearers but can also be a great option for patients who wear contacts part-time, for recreational use or for special occasions in which contacts may be preferred over glasses.
I am excited about this product and expect many of our patients to have a very positive response to it.
