New Lens, New Vision: The First Multifocal Toric Daily Contact Lens
Holding your phone further away? Squinting at menus in dim light? Switching between contact lenses and reading glasses? If you have both presbyopia and astigmatism, you may have felt like your options were limited.
ACUVUE® OASYS MAX 1 Day Multifocal for Astigmatism is the first daily disposable contact lens designed to correct both conditions in a single lens.¹ It combines multifocal technology for near and distance vision with a toric design that keeps the lens stable, so your correction stays clear and consistent. Here is what this means and whether this could work for you.
Why vision changes in your 40s can feel complicated
From your early to mid 40s, it is common to notice changes in near vision. This is presbyopia, a natural age-related change that affects how your eyes focus on close objects.²
You may notice:
- Needing more light to read
- Holding your phone further away
- Struggling with small print
- Experiencing eye strain after screen time
If you also have astigmatism, which can cause blurred or distorted vision at all distances, managing both conditions together can feel frustrating.³ Until recently, many contact lens wearers had to compromise between stability, clarity or convenience.
Introducing the world’s first daily disposable multifocal toric lens
ACUVUE® OASYS MAX 1 Day Multifocal for Astigmatism, designed to correct both presbyopia and astigmatism.¹
It combines:
- A multifocal optical design for near, intermediate and distance vision2
- A stabilised toric design to help keep the lens correctly aligned on the eye3
- Daily disposable convenience
This means you can correct both conditions in one lens without layering reading glasses over contact lenses.
Clear vision at all distances
Multifocal lenses are designed to support clear vision at different distances, from reading your phone to driving.2
The lens features:
- An optimised multifocal design to support clear, reliable vision⁴
- Eyelid Stabilized Design to harnesses the power of natural eyelid movements to help align and stabilize the lens4
- Built in UV blocking^5
For people juggling screens, paperwork and everyday tasks, that balance of stability and clarity matters.
Designed for modern digital lifestyles
Digital life places new demands on our eyes. ACUVUE® OASYS MAX 1 Day Multifocal for Astigmatism incorporates TearStable™ Technology to help lock in moisture and support comfort throughout the day.5 It also features a blue-violet filter to reduce light scatter*6
Together, these technologies are designed to support visual clarity and comfort in modern lighting conditions, including screen use. And, as a daily disposable lens, you simply wear a fresh pair each day. No cleaning. No storage. Just clear vision and get on with your day.
A smooth transition with a trusted brand
If you already wear ACUVUE® lenses, this may feel like a natural evolution rather than a dramatic change. You are simply updating your lenses to match your changing vision needs.
That familiarity can make the transition feel easier.
