Features & Benefits

Air Optix for Astigmatism are monthly disposable contacts designed to address astigmatism — a common eye condition that causes blurred vision. They can be worn daily for 30 days or continuously for up to 6 nights and 7 days, after which they must be replaced with a new pair.

Air Optix for Astigmatism contact lenses feature unique Precision Balance 8|4® Design, which is engineered to work with the eyes’ blinking mechanism. It provides stability throughout 30 days of wear to ensure reliable, consistent visual acuity for people with astigmatism. Plus, Air Optix for Astigmatism have scribe marks at 3, 6, and

Air Optix for Astigmatism feature a suite of technologies to ensure stable and clear vision.

Who They’re For

Air Optix for Astigmatism contact lenses are for people who have vision problems due to astigmatism, and are looking for toric contacts with advanced features to ensure superior comfort, breathability, and visual acuity.

Historically, the irregular curvature of the eye that characterizes astigmatism made finding good-fitting contact lenses difficult. Moreover, contacts that correct for astigmatism require two prescriptions that must remain in the same place relative to the eye. If the lens rotates, the wearer’s vision will become blurry. Therefore, lens stability is key to consistently clear vision for people with astigmatism.

With Precision Balance 8|4 Design, lens stability isn’t a problem. This design, which is unique to toric lenses developed by Alcon, works with the eyes’ natural blinking mechanism to keep the lenses stable. As such, you won’t have to worry about your contact lenses rotating or shifting in your eye, even if you play sports or do physical activities. If you have astigmatism, talk to your eye care professional about Air Optix for Astigmatism contact lenses from Lens.com.

About Astigmatism

Astigmatism is a common eye condition in which the cornea of the eye has mismatched curves. Ideally, the eye is shaped like a round ball. When light enters the eye, it bends evenly, giving you a clear view of the object you’re looking at. In people with astigmatism, light gets bent more in one direction than another due to the cornea's mismatched curves. As a result, only a part of the object is in focus. Most people who have astigmatism are born with it, but it’s unclear why this is the case. You can also get astigmatism after an eye injury, an eye disease, or eye surgery. Because astigmatism symptoms develop slowly, it’s important to see an eye care professional if you notice changes in your vision.

Air Optix for Astigmatism FAQs

Can you take a nap in Air Optix for Astigmatism contacts?
