Dr. Krista Innamorato at Unionville Optometry does fittings
for the following types of Acuvue contact lenses:
Acuvue® Lenses For Nearsightedness
With nearsightedness, objects at a distance will appear out of focus. You may only be able to see things clearly if they are relatively close to you.
Acuvue® Lenses For Farsightedness
Farsightedness is the opposite of nearsightedness. This is where you are unable to see things clearly if they are relatively close to you but you may be able to see objects clearly at a distance.
Acuvue® Lenses For Astigmatism
With Astigmatism, objects may appear distorted or out of focus at every distance due to a defect in your eye lens.
Acuvue® Contacts For Presbyopia
Presbyopia is a form of farsightedness that generally affects adults over 40. As we age we cam lose the elasticity in the lens of our eyes. This can make it difficult when focusing on small print or objects that are near, or maybe in low light.

ACUVUE® offers daily disposable lenses, bi-weekly lenses, Toric lenses for astigmatism, multifocal lenses for reading vision, and specialty lenses designed for dry eye comfort and digital screen use.
Which ACUVUE® contact lenses are best for dry eyes?
Many patients with dry eye symptoms prefer daily disposable ACUVUE® lenses because they provide a fresh, clean lens every day and reduce buildup that can cause irritation.
What is the difference between ACUVUE® OASYS and ACUVUE® Moist?
ACUVUE® OASYS lenses are designed with higher oxygen flow and enhanced moisture technology for extended comfort. ACUVUE® Moist lenses are typically more affordable daily disposables designed for reliable everyday wear.

Both can be effective. Daily lenses offer maximum convenience and hygiene, while bi-weekly lenses are more cost-effective for regular wearers who are comfortable with lens care routines.

Can ACUVUE® lenses help with screen-related eye strain?
Some ACUVUE® lens designs are optimized to support modern digital lifestyles by helping maintain moisture and visual clarity during prolonged screen use.
Can I sleep in ACUVUE® contact lenses?
Most ACUVUE® lenses are not designed for overnight wear unless specifically prescribed. Sleeping in contact lenses can increase the risk of eye infection and irritation.

Replacement depends on the lens type. Daily lenses are discarded each day, while bi-weekly lenses are replaced every two weeks as prescribed.

Cost varies by lens type and replacement schedule. Daily lenses are typically more convenient but may cost more over time than bi-weekly or monthly options.
