1-2 Week Disposables
-
Weekly and biweekly disposables have become the mainstay of the contact lens industry. This lens type is generally worn for 7 days of continuous wear (worn while sleeping/24 hours a day) or 14 days of daily wear (removed at night) and then discarded and replaced with a fresh pair.
Top of page
Bifocal/Multifocal Lenses
-
New materials and technology have made contact lenses more available for the growing number of presbyopic Baby Boomers who have been forced to wear bifocal or multifocal glasses. Today, more and more mature adults are shedding their glasses for the freedom and convenience of bifocal/multifocal contact lenses.

Colored Contact Lenses
-
There are three basic types of colored contact lenses: visibility tints, enhancement tints and opaque color tints. Visiblity tints make the contact lens easier to see and handle during insertion and generally are not visible when worn. More popular are the color enhancers and opaque colors that visibly enhance and change natural eye color. Most enhancement tints and opaque colored contact lenses are available for people who have astigmatism, who need bifocal correction, or who want a disposable or frequent replacement lens. For people who do not require vision correction, plano lenses (lenses without any correction) are available. Plano colored contacts are still a medical device and require fitting and a prescription from an eyecare professional.

Daily Disposables
-
Recent advances in manufacturing techniques and materials have made daily disposable contact lenses, contacts that you discard every night and replace in the morning with a new pair, an affordable and convenient contact lens wearing modality for many people. Today, if you require vision correction and wear contact lenses, there is a good likelihood you can find a daily disposable lens to meet your needs.
Top of page
Monthly Disposables
-
This type of contact lens is generally recommended to be worn for 30 days and then discarded and replaced with a fresh pair. Depending on the particular lens material and your eyecare providers' prescribed wearing schedule, monthly disposables are worn daily and removed/cleaned while you sleep or in some cases worn continuously for 30 days then discarded. Again, you can find monthly disposable contact lenses to meet most vision correction needs.

Toric Contact Lenses
-
For many people who have astigmatism, disposable soft contact lenses have not been an option up until the last couple of years. Today however, there are many comfortable, convenient, low-to-moderate-priced toric contact lenses specifically designed to help correct astigmatism. If you have astigmatism and have been told in the past that contact lenses are not an option, you might want to contact your eyecare provider to discuss new toric contact lens options available.
