The wait is finally over. Acuvue moist for astigmatism is being released in Australia on the 20th of June 2011. I have to admit there is a need for a comfortable daily disposable toric contact lenses and up until the release of Acuvue moist for astigmatism there really isn’t one. I’ve always wondered why there was such a poor amount of daily toric brands available for consumers. My speculation is because the amount of money the manufacturer would have to invest by using a good material. Imagine the volume they’d have to make! They would need the standard powers between plano to -6.00 DS. Each with a -0.25 increment, each with cyl powers of -0.75, -1.25, -1.75, -2.25 and each with axis available from 0 to 180 degrees in 10 degree steps. Now times that by the demand for daily toric contact lenses and you are left with a whole heap of volume! But the pioneers of daily disposable contact lenses have done it. And for all you people suffering from astigmatism, you finally have a comfortable contact lens available in toric form. Acuvue Moist for Astigmatism will have all the bells and whistles all their other toric contact lenses enjoy including Advanced Stabilisation Design (ASD) and now the lens will contain the secret ingredient Lacreon! Acuvue 1 Day Moist for Astigmatism will be the most comfortable daily disposable toric contact lens. I can say this because 1 Day Acuvue Moist is still amongst one of the most comfy lenses available today. Well done Johnson & Johnson.
