Daily Disposable Contact Lenses – Hygienic And Convenient

A daily disposable contact lens is one, which you discard every night and replace with a fresh lens the next morning.

Introduced in 1987, the daily disposable contact lenses are the most widely used contact lenses.

Since these daily disposable contacts are hygienic and convenient, they are the choice of users and doctors alike.

The disposable contacts are considered hygienic because they are disposed off each night.

As such, there is no scope for the build-up of substances like proteins, lipids, etc. or any bacterial colony.

This makes your eyes less prone to infections and allergies.

These disposable contact lenses are convenient and ideal, as they do not oblige you to follow a regular cleaning and care regimen.

These daily disposable lenses do away with the discomfort of wearing your lenses even when you go to sleep.

There are three major brands of daily disposable lenses – Focus Dailies from Ciba Vision, 1-day Acuvue from Vistakon and Soflens 1-day from Bausch & Lomb.

Ciba Vision has also introduced daily disposable contacts for astigmatism – the Focus Dailies Toric.

These disposable contact lenses are made from a soft plastic material and they offer excellent fit.

One reason behind the popularity of these contact lenses is that they prove to  be cheaper than your conventional reusable lenses.

Since the disposable contacts need no cleaning, you are not required to invest for the costly cleaning solutions.
