Acuvue has been one of the leading names in contact lenses for years, and their most popular products have always seemed to be their Advanced and Advanced for Astigmatism lines. But now a new type of contact lense has been released by the company, and that is the Acuvue Oasys.

Made especially to allow oxygen to pass more easily to the eye, it works to create a way for the eye to breath, without drying out. Those who use the Oasys line will find themselves with less irritation after the first few hours, and that the lense sits more comfortably.

You will also have quite a bit less slippage, as the added comfort means less blinking, and the natural moisture from the eye keeps the suction from breaking. This means you are less likely to lose a contact, reducing costs significantly.

But one of the best features about the Acuvue Oasys is that it stays put even when wet. Those of you who swim, or just need a quick shower after a workout, will know what a great thing that is. These are only a few of the reasons that eye doctors are prescribing Oasys over Advanced.
