"Helps keep eyes feeling moist and fresh even at the end of the day" |
There is no doubt that 1 Day Acuvue Moist is a great lens, often the first lens of choice for prescribing Optometrist, the main issue for customers with this lens is the price! Unless you have particularly dry or sensitive eyes then there are other lenses available that do the job just as well,
We have introduced a new daily lens for dry eyes and even more comfort - Crystal Aqua Daily, at only £9.50/30 lenses. A great replacement for 1 Day Acuvue Moist - but 2/3 cheaper. We have had 1000's of customers successfully change between 1 Day Acuvue Moist and Crystal Aqua Daily.

1 Day Acuvue Moist is a great choice if you have any eye issue, whether you suffer dry eyes syndrome or just get the occasional dry eyes after long screen time sessions or late night partying, the addition of Lacreon really helps your eyes stay moist all day.
I am very short sighted. I wear my lenses for the vast majority of the day, as wearing glasses isn't really feasible. These lenses are excellent, and comfortable from 7am to 11pm. My optician recommends them also. I have been wearing them for a few years now and would say they are the upper end of the contact lens market. I'd recommend them.
I changed to these as my usual contacts (Crystal Aqua Daily) were out of stock. The Crystal lenses are much more affordable, but these are so much more pleasant to wear. I don't feel like I'm wearing contacts even when I've worn them for 10-11 hours. I didn't find them flimsy or difficult to put in and I like that they have UV protection. Really happy with these lenses, just wish they cost a bit less...
Been using different other daily contact lenses and these ones are the worst of them all so far. Too bad I bought 2 boxes. Will probably throw them out and buy different ones. They're hard to put in your eyes, thin like film and wrinkle easily. The vision is a bit blurred, especially when looking on a computer screen and eyes get tired after half a day.
I am amazed by all the positive reviews. I hate, hate, hate these!!!
No kidding, 50% of the time they go in and I have to remove them because they are torn and are painful
One positive = When I do manage to get them in my eye, yes they are fine all day, I can barely feel them at all
BUT....
when trying to remove them they slide to the back of my eyeball, fold under my eyelid and are so hard to remove
The worst... and this says a lot. Since Acuvue True Eye discontinued I am going through a lot of lenses!
I've tried a handful of different lenses now and these are the most difficult to handle. By that I mean they are difficult to put in due to being so soft, they simply stick to your finger or fall out. They would benefit from being more rigid. By the time I've faffed about drying my finger so that they don't stick there's barely any moisture left on the lense. Pretty useless considering the price, I won't be buying again.
This is a very good product. My son has dry eyes and they are suitable for him to wear. He can use them all day without redness. We have tried other contact lenses with no success. Overall would recommend especially if you get dry eyes with contacts.
I've tried various different types of contact lenses, such as the Oasys variants and Optix, but each of those lenses always felt sightly uncomfortable, especially when playing sport. Although the Moist has been around for a while, they are by far the most comfortable lenses I have ever worn.
Very large contact lenses which are useful if you have big eyes. Optician recommended them as smaller lenses were causing my eyes to dry out. These are very comfortable and fit perfectly. However due to their size they are more difficult to put in, so it takes a bit of practice to get used to them. A bit on the expensive side but never had any problems with tearing etc.
