Acuvue Oasys

4 Comments

I've recently had multiple patients complain of irritation and limited cl wear with the av oasys lens. Anyone else? I've tried switching lens care solutions (Clear Care) and treating dryness/irritation issues with surface lubricants and rewetting drops without success. The only solution for most of these patients seems to be refitting into a daily disposable.

I generally find that Oasys are very comfortable initially for patients but tend to have more problems over time than Air Optix or Biofinity.

I find some strange things attaching to these lenses.

I've had it for over a year..long term wearers with GPC and lens tightening. I don't have it with other SIHY lenses. I am systematically switching them to Airoptics and biofinity

Check for allergy symptoms. Any CLs are no good when allergies are affecting the eyes. I've been getting a higher amount of bacterial/allergic/CLARE conjunctivitis in the last month myself.
