My son has very red eyes but since wearing the air optix astigmatism contact lenses the red eye is minimal. Loved the speedy delivery we received from start to finish. I never talked to anyone just filled out the forms and they were delivered. I loved not having to drive all the way to the DR.s office to pick them up. A+++++ all the way. You guys are awesome. I thank you, my son thanks you, Keep up the Great work!!

After years of going to the eye Dr. trying to be fitted for contact lenses, I almost gave up. Nothing worked. Last month when I went for my annual exam, I was persistant and patient knowing that there are many different brands for Astigmatism. Well on the 6th brand of Lenses he pulls out the Ciba Vision Air Optix for Astigmatism contact lens telling me that these are new to the market. I immediately could feel the difference! Feels like I am wearing nothing in my eye! If you need a toric lens try air optix astigmatism!!

I had tried a different brand last year, but they didn't fit my eye well enough, so I went back to what I had. This year, I just couldn't take it anymore, but I did not want to have to go back to wearing my glasses. After doing some research on my own and in consultation with my eye doctor, we decided to try the Air Optix Toric contacts. They are amazing. The Air Optix Toric lenses stay moist all day and I practically forget to take them out. The best!

I am a new contact lens wearer, and my doc originally prescribed me another toric lens, which seriously irritated my eye. I called my eye doc and she said I had to get used to it. Well after a couple more days I just could not stand it, my eyes were dry and to please prescribe me something else! She gave me the Air Optix toric contact lenses to try on, and they were like contact lens heaven!! I immediately could tell the difference. The Air Optix Toric contacts stay moist all day and no 'floating'. I am glad I did not have to go through a bunch of contacts to get them!

Living in Colorado, with the dry climate, makes contacts pretty uncomfortable. After trying many different types, I agree with prior reviewer! The Ciba Vision Air Optix for Astigmatism contact lenses are the most comfortable lenses I've ever worn. I truly forget that I have them in. If you have dry eyes and your contacts get 'sticky' - you might give these a trial run. I love them!

I have tried more than a dozen of contacts in the past several years but never could find a contact I could wear without dry eyes and itching. I had to carry a bottle of drops with me constantly while wearing lenses and never could find one that I was not conscious of it being there. My optometrist gave me a trial pair of AIR OPTIX Astigmatism contacts and let me tell you.........It is the best I have ever experienced. They are so comfortable you don't know they are in.........which is the way I always knew it should be. Trust me ...they are a miracle. No itchy dry eyes. I don't have to carry drops to rewet my eyes. I am extremely pleased. Air Optix Astigmatism is a Great Product.
