New Contact Lenses May Offer Remedy for Digital Eye Strain

The hottest product debuted at the International Consumer Electronics Show, CES 2017, is not the latest new gadget. A new contact lens, designed for digital device users, can help relieve eye tiredness, dryness and redness associated with prolonged time in front of a digital screen.

Digital eye strain or fatigue, most commonly felt after two or more hours in front of a digital screen, has become a reality as we increase our dependence on technology in our work and personal lives. Biofinity Energys^™ contact lenses employ breakthrough technology in the construction of the lens to minimize strain on the eye muscles as the wearer moves their eye from on-screen to off-screen and back. We have a tendency to blink less when we use digital devices, disrupting our body’s natural way of keeping our eyes moist. Biofinity Energys^™ lenses also retain moisture better than standard contact lenses, increasing hydration, breathability, and lens softness. The lenses also have a special rounded edge, increasing the length of comfortable wear time by reducing resistance
between the lens and the inside of the eyelids.

Biofinity Energys^™ contact lenses are designed for all-day wear, helping people’s eyes better adapt so they can seamlessly and continuously shift focus between digital devices and offline activities. The lenses are designed to be replaced monthly and require similar care and handling as other soft contact lenses.

Ask your doctor if Biofinity Energys^™ contact lenses can be a sight for sore eyes for your digital lifestyle.
