SynergEyes - Hybrid Contact Lenses Remember when you had only two choices in contact lenses? "Hard" (rigid gas permeable) lenses were best for crisp, clear vision but were sometimes irritating and uncomfortable. Soft lenses were usually comfortable but in some cases provided less-than-optimal vision. Now, a technological breakthrough makes having to choose a thing of the past. SynergEyes hybrid contact lenses offer the best of both worlds. The soft skirt offers all day... comfort while the "breathable" rigid center keeps eyes healthy while providing crisp, clear visioneven at night. SynergEyes A The SynergEyes A lens is the perfect choice for patients with astigmatism who are seeking better vision and more comfort in a contact lens. With SynergEyes hybrid lenses, the "breathable" rigid center promotes corneal health and delivers high-definition vision, even at night, while the soft skirt provides comfort and stability all day long. SynergEyes is free from "toric lens rotation", a problem often associated with inconsistent vision. SynergEyes optics remain stable, delivering consistently clear vision blink after blink. SynergEyes eliminates the problem of irritating debris that can collect under conventional rigid lenses. And you won’t experience the annoyance of rigid lenses moving when you blink or dislodging with your active lifestyle. SynergEyes Multifocal At age 40+, even if you've never needed vision correction before, chances are you're beginning to find yourself holding books and menus at arms length. Now, thanks to the new revolutionary SynergEyes Multifocal hybrid contact lens you can experience ageless vision near and far. You'll never again have to juggle multiple vision solutions, eyeglasses and bifocals, or bifocals and contacts. The SynergEyes Multifocal is not yet available in all areas; please check with your doctor about availability in your area. Summary SynergEyes offers a wide variety of hybrid contact lenses to meet your visual needs. Whether you have Astigmatism, need vision correction for distance, close up, reading or to help correct keratoconus, SynergEyes contact lenses will provide you with comfortable and crisp vision all day long.
