Bausch + Lomb announced the introduction of Biotrue OneDay for Astigmatism daily disposable contact lenses.

The new lens offers patients the convenience of a daily disposable contact lens with an evolved peri-ballast design for stability and Surface Active Technology to help the lens maintain 98% of its moisture for as long as 16 hours, according to a company press release.

Biotrue OneDay for Astigmatism’s unique technology uses a large volume of hydrophilic polyvinylpyrrilidone and Poloxamer 407 to form a hydration barrier that helps the lens maintain moisture. Additionally, engineers created a peri-ballast design that employs spherical aberration control in both axes to help reduce halos and glare, even in low-light conditions.
