J&J to launch tear-infused contact lens

Johnson & Johnson Vision Care has announced the launch of a new lens with a tear-infused design.

Its Acuvue Oasys brand contact lenses 1-Day with HydraLuxe technology will launch worldwide beginning in 2016, an announcement confirmed.

The company said contact lens performance declines throughout the day for 59 per cent of wearers, correlating with the number of activities the contact lens wearer performs in a day – leading to the new tear-infused concept.
