Our exclusive Aquaform® Technology attracts and binds water throughout the lens material to retain moisture, even during times of reduced blinking.
How it works
- In a matrix of long silicone chains, hydrogen bonds form to lock water molecules within the lens, for a smooth, naturally wettable surface and a comfortable wearing experience
- The long chains mean that less raw silicon needs to be used to optimise oxygen transmissibility, and increased oxygen levels help keep eyes clear, white and healthy
- Reduced silicon content also results in an optimum modulus, which makes the lenses soft and flexible to enhance comfort and fitting versatility
Thanks to Aquaform® Technology, our lenses provide the hydration, breathability and softness that your eyes deserve.
Unique characteristics of Aquaform Technology | Lens property | The Aquaform Technology patient benefit |
|---|---|---|
Forms hydrogen bonds with water molecules to lock water into the lens | A naturally hydrophilic silicone hydrogel lens | A highly wettable surface for a comfortable wearing experience |
Utilises a unique silicone macromer that provides long chanins of silicone | High oxygen permeability (DK) | Helps keep eyes clear, white and healthy |
Low amount of molecular bridges connecting the macromers together | Optimum modulus | A softer, more flexible lens |
