Dailies Total1 for Astigmatism

Manufactured by Alcon

Alcon has launched new contact lenses for individuals with astigmatism. Dailies Total1 for Astigmatism is the first water-gradient contact lens.

Alcon’s water-gradient lenses are designed to settle more easily and stabilize the lipid layer of the tear film. The lens material has a gradual increase in water content that helps provide moisture to the eyes, and the lenses are positioned to fit and allow those with astigmatism to wear contact lenses more comfortably.
