Contacts By Replacement Schedule
Contact lenses should be discarded and replaced according to the schedule provided by your eye care professional to help ensure healthy, comfortable lens wearing experience. Proteins, lipids and micro-organisms can collect on the surfaces of contact lenses, so, for lenses that are going to be used more than once, it is important to clean them on removal from the eye and replace them at appropriate intervals.
CIBA VISION® offers daily disposable and monthly replacement contact lenses. A recent study showed that daily disposable and monthly replacement silicone hydrogel lens wearers are significantly more compliant than two-week replacement silicone hydrogel lens wearers.*1 Our daily disposable and monthly replacement contact lenses fit the way people live and make it easier for you to follow the schedule recommended by your eye care professional.
