Contact lenses: His-toric-ally good

Optician presents a guide to some of the most useful toric contact lens products available to UK practices

To be effective, Safilens says a toric daily disposable contact lens should properly stabilise and be consistent. Unlike a frequent replacement lens, it has to be thin and comfortable on first fitting.

In response, Safilens developed a new simple and effective toric lens design (pictured above) with minimum decentration between surfaces and with inner toricity.

The unique SleekForm stability design is said to use a minimum pure prism profile to achieve quick and precise orientation without the need of enhanced thickness zones in the lens.

The lens uses and also benefits from the company’s Fusion technology, in which the synergistic actions of hyaluronic acid and TSP normalise and keep the physiological relation between tear film and ocular surface stable with the aim of giving wearers natural and longer-lasting comfort.
