Top Line: Alcon is expanding its multifocal portfolio with the launch of Air Optix plus HydraGlyde Multifocal contact lenses.
Close Up: As with Alcon’s other multifocal portfolio contact lens options, including Dailies Total1, Dailies AquaComfort Plus and Air Optix Aqua, the new lenses offer presbyopic patients a unique combination of technologies for “seamless vision at all distances, plus enhanced moisture benefits, compared to Air Optix Aqua,” Alcon said.
“Our new Air Optix plus HydraGlyde Multifocal contact lens expands Alcon’s differentiated contact lens portfolio – offering additional options for patients and providing opportunities for Eye Care Professionals (ECPs) to foster practice growth,” said Eric Bruno, General Manager of Alcon US Vision Care. “There are more than 111 million Americans living with presbyopia, and the number of presbyopic patients continues to grow. We believe ECPs should be equipped with advanced solutions to accommodate patients’ specific vision needs that fit their individual lifestyles.”
Air Optix plus HydraGlyde Multifocal contact lenses incorporate Alcon’s industry-leading Precision Profile Design together with the HydraGlyde molecule for:
• Clear, seamless vision at all distances, near, intermediate and far
• Lasting lens surface moisture through the HydraGlyde Moisture Matrix
• Excellent deposit protection and consistent comfort with Alcon’s unique SmartShield Technology. This unique culmination of technologies gives presbyopic patients and ECPs improved solutions for addressing patients’ needs for clear and comfortable vision.
