Johnson & Johnson Vision announces the Canadian launch of expanded parameters for 1-DAY ACUVUE® MOIST Brand Contact Lenses for ASTIGMATISM, a daily disposable contact lens that offers patients Eyelid Stabilized Design for clear, stable vision and LACREON® Technology that provides a cushion of moisture for long-lasting comfort.

Nearly 1 out of every 2 vision corrected patients has astigmatism in at least one eye, and full correction can provide them with improved visual quality of life. With the addition of 48% more lens parameters for patients with astigmatism, the 1-DAY ACUVUE® MOIST Brand Contact Lens family now offers coverage for nearly 96% of spherical and astigmatic eyes3 and the ACUVUE® Family of 1-Day Contact Lenses for Astigmatism now offers the largest range of parameters among daily disposable contact lenses.

The proprietary Eyelid Stabilized Design found in 1-DAY ACUVUE® MOIST for ASTIGMATISM works naturally with the eyelids, helping to keep the lens in the correct position. LACREON® Technology embeds a moisture-rich wetting agent into the lens creating a cushion of moisture that won’t blink away over time. The result is reduced friction of the lens and greater end-of-day comfort.

1-DAY ACUVUE® MOIST for ASTIGMATISM provides Class II UV protection, blocking approximately 82% of UVA and 97% of UVB rays.
