The silicone hydrogel core allows oxygen to pass through the lens while the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.1800getlens.com\/contacts\/ultra\/\" title=\"ULTRA\">ultra<\/a>-soft outer layer creates a near-100% water surface that sits against the eye. Alcon&#8217;s SmarTears technology releases phosphatidylcholine, a component found in natural tears to help maintain surface lubricity over time. In clinical surveys, 9 out of 10 wearers reported the lens was comfortable enough that they sometimes forgot they had it on.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Acuvue Oasys 1-Day works differently. The HydraLuxe network is woven throughout the lens material itself, designed to interact with your eye&#8217;s own tear film rather than supplement it externally. In a clinical trial among wearers who used digital devices for 8 or more hours a day, this lens performed well in end-of-day comfort and reduced dryness symptoms compared to other dailies tested.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a3d61de elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"a3d61de\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Oxygen Transmissibility<\/h3>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e7e6609 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"e7e6609\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Oxygen transmissibility measured as Dk\/t, reflects how much oxygen reaches the cornea through the lens.
