Product: Biofinity toric multifocal contact lenses
Top Line: CooperVision has announced that its new Biofinity toric multifocal contact lenses are now available nationwide in the U.S.
Close Up: Biofinity toric multifocal combines the comfort and leading optical designs of Biofinity toric and Balanced Progressive Technology from Biofinity multifocal that has four distinct ADD powers for more accurate fitting. Like all Biofinity silicone hydrogel lenses, Biofinity toric multifocal features CooperVision’s Aquaform Technology, which offers “superb breathability and higher moisture content to keep eyes comfortable and healthy,” according to CooperVision.
“Amid the COVID-19 pandemic, we understand that eyecare practices are operating under various circumstances, and for many, fitting contact lenses still may not be possible,” said Jerry Warner, president, Americas and global commercial functions, CooperVision. “Despite the current challenges, we’re able to bring Biofinity toric multifocal fully to market. When practice doors are open again, and eyecare professionals have patients back in the chair, Biofinity toric multifocal lenses will provide an easy-to-fit, advanced lens design for their astigmatic presbyopes—patients for whom contact lens wear was previously a challenge.”
