Your eye doctor will make the clinical decisions during your fitting, but here's what you should check when ordering online:
- Check exactly which Acuvue silicone hydrogel lens your doctor picked for you, since every lens has its own material, features, and prescription details.
- Look at the details on your lens box, like how curved the lens is, its size, and its strength. For astigmatism, also check extra numbers (cylinder and axis). For multifocal lenses, check the added reading power (ADD).
- Pick a replacement plan that matches your daily routine. Daily lenses don't need cleaning. Lenses that are changed every 2 weeks should be cleaned every night and replaced after 14 days. Monthly lenses are replaced after 30 days and require nightly cleaning.
- Choose how many boxes you want to buy. Getting a six-month or yearly supply at once usually lowers the cost per box for any replacement schedule.
- Upload your prescription or allow the retailer to confirm it with your eye doctor before completing your order. Review all details for accuracy before submitting your purchase.
The Full Acuvue Silicone Hydrogel Range
Acuvue's silicone hydrogel lenses come in three replacement schedules, each with options for different vision needs.
For daily use, Acuvue Oasys 1-Day with HydraLuxe is the top choice. It is available in standard versions, for astigmatism (called toric), and for people who need help seeing both near and far (called multifocal). Acuvue TruEye is another daily lens made from a material that lets in plenty of oxygen and stays naturally moist, without needing extra wetting drops.
For lenses changed every two weeks, Acuvue Oasys 2-Week with Hydraclear Plus is available in regular, astigmatism (toric), and near/far vision (multifocal) types. It's popular for its reliable comfort and fits many needs.
For monthly wear, Acuvue Vita with HydraMax technology is offered in standard and toric versions. This monthly lens is engineered to maintain consistent moisture throughout all 30 days, helping address the comfort decline sometimes experienced with older monthly lenses.
Your eye doctor will confirm which product and replacement schedule is the right fit for your eyes and prescription.
