Dailies Total 1 are daily disposable contact lenses designed by Alcon & Ciba Vision. Renowned as the world’s first water gradient contact lenses, the surface of these lenses has a water content of 80%, ensuring that eyes remain hydrated all day long.
Dailies Total 1 is a water-gradient silicone hydrogel lens which ensures that a consistent supply of oxygen reaches the eyes throughout the day, preventing the onset of dry eyes. The water content of these lenses transition from 33% at the core to over 80% at the surface, and almost 100% at the outer surface.
The smooth, wettable surface of Dailies Total 1 contact lenses reduces the friction between your eyelid and the eye for optimal comfort. So even after 16 hours of wear, you’ll barely notice that you’re wearing them.
Alcon Dailies Total 1 lenses are the ultimate choice for those who have an active lifestyle. As a daily disposable lens, they have a protein-resistant structure that keeps the lenses clean from morning to night. You just simply need to remove them each night and apply a new set the next day, assuring you that you’re putting in a clean, hygienic and fresh pair every morning.
