Product Information

Bausch + Lomb’s Optima 38/SP contacts are designed to deliver excellent vision and comfort. A leading brand in soft daily-wear lenses for over 10 years, Optima 38/SP contacts can correct nearsightedness and farsightedness.

Features & Benefits

Optima 38/SP contacts are monthly disposable lenses intended for daily wear only, meaning they need to be removed before sleep.

Unlike other conventional lenses, Optima 38/SP contacts have finely tapered edges that help to reduce friction between the eyelid and the lens. This is why Optima 38/SP contacts still feel very comfortable at the end of the day.

Optima 38/SP contacts are also made comfortable by polymacon, a non-ionic lens material with a low water content. Low water content contacts dry less on the eye than high water content contacts, making the former a solid candidate for people with dry or sensitive eyes.

Optima 38/SP contacts also have a blue visibility tint so you can easily spot them in your lens case during insertion and removal.

Who They’re For

Optima 38/SP contacts are a good choice for nearsighted or farsighted individuals who are looking for lenses with advanced features to ensure clear vision and long-lasting comfort.

Optima 38/SP contacts are also suitable for lens wearers who prefer the convenience of a reusable lens over a daily disposable lens.

Optima 38 / SP FAQs

Do Optima 38 / SP contact lenses provide clear vision for both near and far distances?
Optima 38 / SP contact lenses are designed to provide clear vision for distance correction. If you require correction for both near and far distances (presbyopia), you may need multifocal contact lenses.

Can you take a nap in Optima 38 / SP contacts?

No, you cannot nap in Optima 38 / SP lenses. As Optima 38 / SP are not approved for overnight wear (a full night's sleep), napping in them for a short period of time is not advisable either, and it can lead to eye-health complications. Napping for any length of time with contacts not designed for such an environment is risky. Choose a lens that is approved for overnight wear and seek guidance from your ECP if this is a requirement for you.

Where can I buy Optima 38 / SP contacts at the best price?

Optima 38 / SP contact lenses are available at the best price online, vs from a brick-and-motor store. When buying these contacts in-store or from a doctor's office, additional costs that come from higher overhead and lower volume of sales may play a part in having to pay more as a customer. On the other hand, online retailers benefit from lower costs and greater reach (greater sales volume, lower prices). At Lens.com Optima 38 / SP contacts can be purchased for $43.89, after rebates. These prices are designed to be some of the lowest prices you'll find anywhere, either in-store or online.

How do I claim my Optima 38 / SP rebate?

In order to redeem your Optima 38 / SP rebate, follow these 3 easy steps: log on to the Lens.com rebate center, print and mail your rebate form, track your rebate status, and get your prepaid Visa card in the mail.

How long does it take to adjust to wearing Optima 38 / SP contacts?

If you're wearing Optima 38 / SP for the first time, it can take several days to a couple of weeks for you to adjust to wearing them on a daily basis. Contacts vary from brand to brand in terms of their shape, material, breathability, wetting agents used, and other factors, thus requiring an adjustment period. Rigid/hard lenses can sometimes take longer to adjust to, whereas most contacts in use today employ a soft form of silicone that is typically easy to adjust to.

What if I don't have my prescription? Can I still order Optima 38 / SP contacts?

Yes, you can still order Optima 38 / SP if you don't have a hard copy of your RX/prescription on hand. As long as you have a valid contact lens prescription (which will be on file at your ECP's) you can still place an order with us at Lens.com. Choose your lens, provide us with the contact info of your ECP and we'll do the rest. If your ECP is unable to respond to our request for the info needed in a timely manner, your lenses will automatically be shipped out to you. This is the process put in place by the FTC to ensure your rights as a consumer.

How long does it take to get my Optima 38 / SP rebate?

After submitting your Optima 38 / SP rebate forms you can check the status of your rebate by going to Rebate Center. Please allow up to 12 weeks to receive your Lens.com Visa Prepaid Card.

Can I use my eyeglass prescription for Optima 38 / SP contact lenses?

Unfortunately no, you can't use your eyeglass prescription for Optima 38 / SP lenses. Your eyeglass prescription only has the power part of the contact lens prescription. In addition to the power, the proper base curve (BC) and diameter (DIA) are needed to order contact lenses. Contact lenses come in different sizes and must be fit to your eye by an Optometrist or Ophthalmologist. As a replacement center, we can only sell you contact lenses that you are already wearing successfully. So ultimately eyeglass prescriptions are not the same as a prescription for Optima 38 / SP contacts. See an ECP/optometrist if you're looking for a contact lens prescription and fitting as a first-time-wearer.

Is Optima 38 / SP contact lens FDA-approved?

Yes, Optima 38 / SP is FDA-approved. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration regulates all contact lenses as prescription medical devices and thus must go through an approval process, after which they can be legally sold in the US (if approved). Lens.com sells only FDA-approved contact lenses. From lenses to address near, farsightedness, astigmatism, and even cosmetic lenses, our inventory consists only of FDA-approved contacts.

Are Optima 38 / SP sold on Lens.com authentic? Why is it cheaper than other vendors?

Yes, all contacts sold on Lens.com are 100% authentic, including Optima 38 / SP and come with a money-back guarantee. Lens.com is able to sell contacts extremely competitively by buying and selling in volume, by smartly managing costs and overhead, and by accepting smaller but fairer profit margins versus other e-tailers and ECPs in exchange for building a satisfied customer base. We stand by our product and offer 24/7 live-customer support.

How old do you have to be to wear Optima 38 / SP contact lenses?

Like most contacts, including Optima 38 / SP, they can be worn by teens and potentially pre-teens as well, per the direction of an ECP. In general, there is no fixed minimum age for wearing contacts, as it's a judgment call based on lifestyle habits, budget, and of course your ECP's guidance. Contacts do require care and consistency in usage and maintenance/cleaning and these are the lifestyle factors you should consider when thinking about contacts for a child.

What is the water content of Optima 38 / SP?

Optima 38 / SP contacts have a water content of 38%. The higher the water content in a contact lens, the more oxygen reaches the cornea during lens wear.

Consult your ECP to find out the best options for you.
