*Oxygen transmissibility at centre of a -3.00D lens using boundary-corrected, edge-corrected Dk values. Units: (cm/sec) (ml O2/ml x mm Hg) at 35° C. Dk determined via polarographic method.
† All ACUVUE® Brand Contact Lenses have Class 1 or Class 2 UV-blocking to help provide protection against transmission of harmful UV radiation to the cornea and into the eye. UV-absorbing contact lenses are NOT substitutes for protective UV-absorbing eyewear such as UV-absorbing goggles or sunglasses because they do not completely cover the eye and surrounding area. UV transmission measured with -1.00 lens.

MONTH LONG COMFORT
In a clinical study, patient ratings for ACUVUE® VITA™ were superior (p<.0001) for “Overall Comfort” compared to AIR OPTIX® AQUA, Biofinity® and ULTRA™ at end of weeks 1, 2, 3, and 4.1
