CSI Toric Contact Lenses Come In A Daily Wear Style
Wesley Jessen, now a division of CibaVision, makes CSI toric contact lenses. These contact lenses are known for their superior vision correction abilities. They come in a daily wear style with one pair per vial. CSI lenses are very resistive to protein and lipid deposits and are especially good for those with sensitive or dry eyes. The vision correction ability for astigmatism is very good. Made-to-order contact lenses are available in the CSI line. Axis parameters of 40, 50, 130,and 140 can be purchased with a prescription from your eye care professional.
Toric contacts, such as the CSI lens, are specifically made for astigmatism patients. Astigmatism happens when the front surface of the eye, or cornea, has an irregular curvature. The shape of the cornea is more like a football than a round ball. The result is blurred vision at any distance. Astigmatism is very common, especially to those over the age of 40. Having astigmatism meant having to wear eyeglasses in the past. Thanks to modern technology, you can now wear contact lenses and toss the eyeglasses into your dresser drawer.
CSI daily wear lenses are used as a conventional contact lens. Daily cleaning and disinfecting is necessary to prevent protein deposits from developing. The lens is made from Crofilcon A , a polymer that resists excessive buildups on the surface of the lens. You can disinfect these lenses by either heat, chemical, or peroxide methods. Check online for CSI lenses as well as other name brand toric contact lenses. Also, look for values on solutions and disinfectants.
