1-Day Acuvue TruEye
1-Day Acuvue TruEye is the world's FIRST daily disposable contact lens that comes in a new breathable silicone hydrogel material called Narafilcon A - an innovative silicone hydrogel material saturated with a locked-in super smooth wetting agent which does not slow release onto the eye. Narafilcon A delivers 98% oxygen flux to the cornea.
Acuvue's new TruEye contact lenses are truly remarkable as patients will regain incredible white eyes and comfort at the end of the day because the super wet and super smooth surface has the lowest friction coefficient of any daily disposable lens on the market today - even exceeding 1-Day Acuvue Moist. This is great news for contact lens wearers experiencing pink eyes after a long day.

Vistakon, a division of Johnson & Johnson Vision Care, Inc., today announced the availability of a new 90-pack version for its 1-Day Acuvue Moist Contact Lenses.
In addition to the new 1-Day Acuvue Moist 90-lens pack, the company says it has also reduced the price of its 1-Day Acuvue Moist 30-lens pack and is offering a new wearer rebate specifically for 1-Day Acuvue Moist patients.
“Many eye care practitioners and consumers favor daily disposable contacts because of their health and convenience benefits, but doctors have told us that cost often factors into a patient’s decision to choose a one day lens,” says Dave Brown, President, Vistakon. “Now, patients can have the convenience of a single-use lens, while enjoying the benefits of Lacreon technology and the value of a 90-pack.”
Lacreon technology employs a unique process that permanently embeds a water holding ingredient, similar to that found in natural tears, into the proven etafilcon A material of the 1-Day Acuvue Brand.v This technological advancement locks in moisture that lasts throughout the day, allowing eyes to feel fresh and comfortable all day long.

Once again, we have updated the acuvue rebate center showing the 2010 Acuvue Mail-in Rebates available from Vistakon, the makers of all Acuvue products.
So what has changed? Unfortunately, many of the mail-in rebates perviously available, are no longer offered - this includes the mail-in rebate offers for the Acuvue Advance and the Acuvue 2 product family as well as for Acuvue Bifocal.
Available 2010 rebates are ranging from $20 to $75 covering the following lenses: 1-Day Acuvue Moist, Acuvue Oasys, Acuvue Oasys for Astigmatism, and Acuvue Oasys for Presbyopia.
As before, certain retailers are excluded from this rebate promotion. When you buy from Costco®, WALMART®, Sam's Club® , 1-800 CONTACTS®, Sears Optical, and Target Optical, you are NOT eligible for this manufacturer mail-in rebate.

With these two new lenses (both were introduced in 2009), Vistakon and CIBA Vision (besides some other manufacturers) serve a growing market: baby-boomers (and beyond) coming of age and requiring reading glasses. For people in this market segment multifocal lenses are an attractive alternative to spectacles. Air Optix Aqua Multifocal and Acuvue Oasys for Presbyopia want to own a significant share of this market. We looked at the differences with this comparison chart. |

1-Day Acuvue TruEye is now available in France. Vistakon presented the new daily disposable silicone hydrogel lens to more than 300 optometrists in Paris. Acuvue TruEye is now listed on the official french acuvue site - acuvue.fr. Besides the french acuvue site, we found Acuvue TruEye on the UK site and - as previously reported - on the Hong Kong site. With the launch in France, Acuvue TruEye is starting to be available in more countries throughout Europe. Other countries that rolled-out AcuvueTruEye include Denmark, Sweden and Australia. We expect more countries to follow soon. Acuvue TruEye was introduced less than a year ago (in September 2008), in the UK and in Ireland. Source: Acuvue-now.com |
