Recommended for

1 Day Acuvue Moist contact lenses are versatile and are a reliable choice of lenses for many individuals, depending on your prescription. Lenstore recommends 1 Day Acuvue Moist if:

• You have myopia (short-sightedness) and struggle to see distant objects particularly clearly
• You have hyperopia (long-sightedness) and can sometimes struggle to see nearby objects, which may appear blurry
• You want contact lenses that don’t require a daily maintenance routine and are ideal for allergy sufferers.

Please always check with your optometrist first before purchasing new contact lenses that haven't been prescribed.

Lacreon technology - Provides a cushion of moisture that keeps lenses comfortable, your eyes fresh and vision clear all day long.

Intuisight technology - Found in the 1 Day Acuvue Moist Multifocal lenses, Intuisight technology helps those with presbyopia to see objects clearly whether near, far or in-between.

FAQs

How long can you wear Acuvue 1 Day Moist?

1 Day Acuvue Moist with Lacreon are daily disposable contact lenses. This means you can wear them for one day at a time. You need to remove and dispose of them each night and insert a fresh pair the next morning.

Which is better, Acuvue Oasys 1 Day or Moist?

Both types of lens are manufactured by Johnson & Johnson and so possess UV ray protection and surface tint. The key difference between these daily disposable lenses is the wetting technology used within them.

Acuvue Oasys use HydraLuxe technology, which keeps eyes moist by mimicking your own tears, whereas Acuvue Moist uses Lacreon technology and has a much higher water content embedded within the lens.

On the other hand, Oasys lenses are made of a silicone hydrogel, which allows a higher level of oxygen to reach the eyes than the non-silicone hydrogel used for Acuvue Moist.
