Extended Wear Contact Lenses
Sleep In and Continuous Wear Contact Lenses
Extended wear contact lenses offer exceptional convenience, made from silicone hydrogel, this material allows oxygen to pass thru the lens to the cornea maintaining eye health during wear, this in essence is what allows these lenses to be worn continuously for several days and nights.
For example, Cooper Vision's Biofinity lenses, Bausch & Lomb's Purevision lenses, and Alcon's Air Optix Night and Day lenses can be worn for up to 30 days without removal. Whereas other Air Optix lenses featured on this page are suitable for up to 6 nights of continuous wear.
It's important to consult with your eye care professional before adopting an extended wear schedule. Your eyes need to be evaluated to determine how long you can safely wear lenses continuously.
