Acuvue TruEye is the first daily daily disposable contact lens made from the newer generation of breathable lens materials, known as silicon hydrogel. TruEye will be available from www.i-contacts.co.nz from July 2010.

The silicon hydrogel material called Narafilcon A allows much more oxygen to reach the cornea (front surface of the eye) while the lens is worn during the day. Also silicon materials have less tendency to dry out. These features result is fewer red and dry eyes at the end of your lens wearing day.

Features of 1-Day Acuvue TruEye Contact Lenses

• Acuvue TruEye lenses are made from Narafilcon A, a new silicone hydrogel material that allows greater oxygen transmission to the cornea, resulting in fewer red and dry eyes - even at the end of a long day.
• Featuring Hydraclear technology combining an exceptional wetting agent with oxygen transmitting silicone hydrogel polymers. The result is an outstanding smooth and moist lens.
• 1-Day Acuvue TruEye contacts have the highest level of UVA and UVB blocking of any daily disposable contact lens with a minimum of 96% UVA and a minimum of 99% UVB blocking.
• A "1-2-3" inside-out indicator and the visibility tint for easier handling.

Why consider 1-Day Acuvue TruEye

1 day disposable contact lenses are generally considered one of the healthiest options for your eyes, by having a clean fresh lens every day it decreases the chance of having problems with your lenses or eyes. Silicon hydrogel contact lenses have been around for a while in both 2-weekly and monthly forms. The silicon materials are allow more oxygen to pass through the lens which in turn allows the cells on the front of the eye to breath and function better. Acuvue Trueye combines the best of both with a healthy silicon material in a daily format.
