FAQs

Are Acuvue Oasys Daily?

Yes, Acuvue Oasys 1 Day are daily disposable contact lenses.

However, other types of lenses in the Acuvue Oasys family are not daily disposables - contacts such as Acuvue Oasys are two weekly disposables or 1 week for extended wear. If you’re unsure which is which, it’s best to check the name (the daily disposables are called ‘1 Day’) or ask your optician.

What is HydraLuxe?

HydraLuxe is a patented technology created by Johnson & Johnson to improve the wettability of their contact lenses - keeping your eyes moist and reducing dryness. HydraLuxe technology blends a network of tear-like molecules with a breathable silicone hydrogel to deliver a more comfortable wearing experience.

Which is Better Acuvue Oasys or Moist?

The answer to this question depends on your prescription needs and your eyes.

Acuvue Moist have a higher water content in the lens compared to Oasys lenses (58% vs 38%), because they are made from a Hydrogel, whereas Acuvue Oasys are made of a silicone hydrogel. However, the silicone hydrogel used in Oasys lenses is exceptionally breathable, improving comfort and keeping eyes healthy. Both make use of different wetting technologies to keep eyes hydrated.

Oasys lenses use HydraLuxe technology, which uses a network of tear-like molecules in the lens to stabilise your tear-film and prevent it from drying out, whilst Moist lenses use Lacreon technology, which embeds a water-retaining ingredient into the lens in order to permanently retain moisture and keep eyes hydrated.

If you’re unsure which is better for your eyes, please consult your optician.

Important Information for Contact Lens Wearers: ACUVUE^® Contact Lenses can be used for vision correction. An Eye Care Professional will determine whether contact lenses are right for you. Although rare, serious eye problems can develop while wearing contact lenses. To help avoid these problems, follow the wear and replacement schedule and instructions on proper lens care. Do not wear contact lenses if you have an eye infection, any eye disease or systemic disease, that may affect the eye, or if you are allergic to any ingredients. If you experience eye discomfort, excessive tearing, vision changes, redness or other eye problems, remove the lens and contact your Eye Care Professional immediately.
