Proclear Compatiable Toric Contact Lenses
Proclear compatiable toric
lenses were designed to help sufferers of astigmatism.
They are essentially a duel purpose lens that has two components;
a remedy for short or long sightedness and an adjustment for astigmatism.
They are also weighted so that the lens always returns to the same
place in the eye, ensuring that the corrections to the eye's vision
are maintained.
Proclear lenses are made of a substance called
omafilcon, which is a polymer incorporating a unique material containing
molecules of phosphorylcholine (PC). PC is found naturally in the
body, which means that they eye is less likely to complain about
foreign objects being placed on it's surface. Proclear lenses also
aid and abet water retention, which is the bane of contact lens
wearers the world over. Dryness of the eyes is one of the commonest
afflictions for people who wear lenses, and is probably one of the
main reasons why many people give up on wearing contact lenses.
Being able to retain water as Proclear lenses do, makes them much
more comfortable to wear.
For many years astigmatism sufferers were
unable to wear contact lenses, because no correction could be made
in the lens for this condition. However, Toric lenses have made
contact lenses accessible to astigmatism sufferers who can now enjoy
a spectacle free life too.
