PureVision monthly contacts can be a practical choice if you want reusable lenses with a steady replacement schedule. They also give wearers a few options, including PureVision, PureVision 2 HD, and PureVision 2 Multi-Focal, depending on what's written on your prescription.
Monthly Replacement Routine
PureVision lenses follow a monthly schedule, which can be convenient for wearers who don't want to open a fresh pair every day. Like other reusable lenses, they still need proper cleaning and storage after wear.
Different Vision Needs
The PureVision line includes options for nearsightedness, farsightedness, and presbyopia, so the right choice depends on the exact lens name and prescription details from your eye doctor.
Wear Flexibility With Doctor Approval
Bausch + Lomb notes that PureVision 2 lenses are approved for daily wear and up to 30 days of continuous wear, but overnight wear should only be followed when prescribed by an eye care professional.
PureVision Lens Care and Storage
PureVision monthly lenses are reusable, so good care habits matter every time you remove them. A clean routine can help keep the lenses comfortable and lower the risk of irritation or infection.
- Wash and dry your hands before handling your lenses, then clean and disinfect them with the contact lens solution recommended by your eye doctor. The CDC notes that multipurpose solutions can be used to clean, rinse, disinfect, and store soft contact lenses.
- Don't reuse old solution or "top off" the liquid already in your lens case. The FDA and AOA both advise using fresh solution and following the directions on your lens care products.
- After each use, empty the case, rinse it with solution, and let it air-dry open. The AOA also recommends keeping the case open and dry between cleanings.
