What Is Aquaform Technology?

aquaform-technology

Aquaform® Technology is an innovative material technology developed by CooperVision, a leading manufacturer of soft contact lenses. Aquaform Technology locks water molecules in the lens, resulting in a naturally hydrating lens that’s almost half water. Aquaform Technology also delivers superior breathability to keep eyes clear, white, and healthy.

Why is it important to wear breathable contact lenses?

Our organs need sufficient oxygen to function correctly, and our eyes are no exception. Our eyes get oxygen from the air instead of blood vessels. This is why it’s important to let your eyes “breathe” if you wear contact lenses.

Wearing contacts for extended periods of time can significantly reduce the amount of oxygen your eyes receive. This can lead to discomfort, dry eyes, and other contact lens-related complications. As such, manufacturers strive to come out with technologies to improve contact lens breathability.
