Product Information
Boston Equalens contacts are rigid gas-permeable (RGP) lenses that offer superior visual acuity and durability. Each Boston Equalens lens is custom-made to fit your eye perfectly and meet the needs of your prescription accurately.
Features & Benefits
Boston Equalens contacts are manufactured from an RGP plastic material. They are intended for daily wear, but they can also be worn for extended periods upon the advice of an eye care professional (ECP).
As RGP lenses, Boston Equalens contacts are highly durable and can resist wear and tear from daily handling. When properly cleaned and cared for, Boston Equalens contacts can last up to a year before they need to be replaced with a fresh pair.
Boston Equalens contacts are also naturally resistant to protein buildup because they contain less than 1% water. They are also breathable, meaning they allow oxygen to reach the eye — oxygen our eyes need to stay white and healthy.
Because they are made-to-order, Boston Equalens contacts can address nearly every refractive error, including nearsightedness, farsightedness, presbyopia, and astigmatism. To correct these visual impairments, Boston Equalens contacts come in the following designs: spherical, aspherical, toric, and bifocal/multifocal.
Boston Equalens contacts also offer protection against UV radiation. Additionally, these contacts are available in blue and electric blue for easier handling during insertion and removal. The tint won’t change your natural eye color. If you don’t want a visibility tint, you can get your Boston Equalens contacts in clear.
Who They’re For
Boston Equalens contacts are ideal for people who prefer a highly durable and convenient lens. They’re also a great choice for those with refractive errors for whom soft contacts don't produce the desired visual acuity as well as those who don’t mind going through a period of adaptation to contact lens wear.
Additionally, Boston Equalens contacts are suitable for those who need vision correction due to irregular corneal conditions, such as keratoconus and those resulting from unsuccessful LASIK surgery.
How to Put In Boston Equalens
Boston Equalens contacts are RGP lenses and as such, you should follow the standard procedure for this type of lens. Wash and dry your hands before touching the contacts or your eyes. Scoop your first lens out of the case with the index finger of your dominant hand and rinse it with a cleaning solution that’s specially formulated for RGP lenses. Inspect the lens for any tears or debris. Hold your eyelid open, stare straight ahead, and gently place the lens on your eye. Blink a few times to center the lens. Repeat for the other lens. Don’t panic if the lens doesn’t feel comfortable immediately. RGP lenses typically take longer to get used to wearing than soft lenses, but regular use is key for comfort.

Boston Equalens Reviews
Best lens ever
I have been wearing Boston Equalens for many many years with no problems. They are the most comfortable lens and I wear them all day, every day. A couple of times during emergency travel I have worn the lens well into the night with no problem. Before Equalens, the other lens I tried were either too dry, too thin and sharp, or uncomfortable to wear after a few hours. Each year the doctor's office orders a different type of lens no matter what I ask for, but so far I have none of them have been worked, so I go directly to lens.com to order my favorite Boston Equalens. Best lens ever.
