SEE CLEAR WITH
BASIC CONTACT LENS
Daily contact lenses are soft and one-time use contact lenses that are easier and more comfortable to wear compared to rigid gas permeable lenses. Made to be convenient, they are typically worn in the beginning of the day and disposed of at the end of the day. Hence, it is an essential for the sports active, travel enthusiast and event-going individuals! You can simply pop them on without needing a reminder to clean or setting up a date in your calendar to replace them.
Our products include materials such as silicon-hydrogel, which allows five times better oxygen transferability to the cornea compared to the standard hydrogel lens. A lack of oxygen causes a condition called hypoxia, which may lead to red eyes, blurry vision and also increase the chances of infection.

Biweekly contact lenses are contact lenses that are prescribed to be worn at a time period of two weeks. Depending on the brand, they can be worn as normal wear (to remove and clean each night) or as an extended wear (worn without removal for a recommended amount of days).
For that reason, the lenses are more durable and thicker which are less prone to wear and tears on the surface of the lens. They are in fact one of the most popular choices amongst users, as it balances the benefit of monthly and daily contacts, allowing the freedom to put their contacts on and remove them on their own schedule without feeling wasteful.
Monthly contact lenses are made to stay comfortable and hydrated up to 30 days of wear. Like any normal wear, cleaning and storing with solution after each night is needed, even if you have not worn them for a day. If you’re planning to wear contact lenses frequently, monthlies are the way to go. They are the most cost effective and least wasteful amongst the available options.
Have you ever felt that your eyes tend to dry out pretty fast? Are you someone whose eyes are sensitive to things like dust or pollen in the air? You might want to consider monthlies if that is the case. Monthly contact lenses are more compatible with sensitive eyes as they are thicker and hold moisture better, which can actually offset some of the irritation you’re used to feeling. Because they’re designed to last longer, they can provide better comfort without the worry of changing lenses.
Unlike normal wear, extended wear contact lenses are designated FDA approved contact lenses for continuous wear from seven, to up to 30 days straight. The materials of these contact lenses are made of silicone hydrogel material. These advanced materials enable your eyes to “breath” better and especially important when worn continuously.
These special contacts enable the militant personnel, the outdoor enthusiast or the ward shift workers to fulfill their activities without any obstruction of view, any fogging or dirt splatter, and especially when cleaning or handling the lenses are not convenient. People with abnormal or significant bad vision, such as high refractive error, may benefit as it becomes extremely helpful to be able to see clearly at all times, especially in the middle of the night.
Are you looking for something to enhance the natural beauty of your eyes? Coloured contact lenses allow you to experience greater confidence and add an element of fun in your lifestyle. Not only do you get to achieve looks that suit you but also gives you the room to be creative with yourself. In addition, colour contact lenses can be ordered with prescription so you get to improve your vision with style.
Who wears them? Anyone can decide to wear them, even if they do not need vision correction.
Is it safe to wear them? Yes. The colour layer of the contact lenses are generally laminated or sandwiched in between two transparent layers of contact lenses to ensure the colour remains the same and does not fade after a certain time of usage.However, only purchase FDA certified colour contact lenses from trusted manufacturers to ensure an uncompromised eye health.
Is it different from normal contact lenses? Colored contact lenses are not wholly transparent, therefore any changes in pupil size depending on lighting conditions may affect your visibility. For instance, in darker conditions your pupil size will increase in size, possibly beyond the hole provided at the center of the lens, will restrict your vision slightly.
