Contact Lenses & Care

New! Bausch & Lomb SofLens® daily disposable contact lenses with aspheric optics offer crisp, clear vision, outstanding all-day comfort, and easy handling for your patients.  

They offer a major improvement over SofLens® one day contact lenses.* 

Please note:  SofLens® one day lenses will be discontinued May 30, 2008. 100% of patients upgrade seamlessly from SofLens one day to SofLens daily disposable lenses.**

Crisp, clear vision

• Aspheric optics – the only daily disposable contact lenses that reduce positive spherical aberration consistently across a full range of powers
• Designed with an aspheric anterior surface to improve contrast of the retinal image in low light conditions
• Delivers exceptional visual quality – especially in low-light conditions

-1.00D with SofLens daily disposable lenses

Outstanding all-day comfort

• Reduced mass design provides less lens-lid interaction and non-ionic hilafilcon B lens material inhibits deposits for long-lasting comfort

• Unique solution works with tears and envelops lenses in a cushion of moisture

Easy handling

• Convenient lens pack with easy-to-grip tab and tear-away label
• Ergonomic blister pack enables smooth lens removal
• Excellent handling for easy lens insertion and removal

*A total of 133 contact lens patients completed a 2-week evaluation of SofLens daily disposable contact lenses. Patients were instructed to wear the lenses on a daily wear, daily disposable basis. At the completion of the study, patients and practitioners provided feedback on the performance of SofLens daily disposable contact lenses.

**2007 study of 75 patients. Data on file. Bausch & Lomb Incorporated.

¹Forty subjects participated in an evaluation of spherical aberration with SofLens daily disposable contact lenses. Subjects were dilated to achieve a minimum of 6 mm pupil diameter. Baseline spherical aberration was measured using a Zywave™ aberrometer. SofLens daily disposable contact lenses (-1.00D and -5.00D) were inserted, and the measurement of spherical aberration was repeated. Wavefront aberration maps and simulated retinal images were generated using Vision Optics Laboratory software. The letter represents a 20/80 letter size viewed through a 6 mm pupil and an eye with no other aberration except for spherical aberration.
