A clinical study1 conducted in spring 2018 found the new lens
provides superior performance versus patients’ previous lenses for
vision and comfort, morning and night. Specifically:
- 91%* agreed that eyes felt “Clean and
Comfortable”
- 3 out of 4 agreed that the lenses
provide “Natural Vision”
- Excellent handling for insertion and
removal – rated 90 out of 100 (100=Excellent)
- The new NaturalVue Sphere provided an
optimal fit (average overall fit acceptance – scored 3.95 out of 4;
4=optimal)
“My patients always ask if there’s a lens that is as comfortable
at the end of the day as it is at the beginning,” said Susan
Resnick, OD, one of the clinical investigators in practice in New
York City. “The CleanComfort® technology advantage in NaturalVue
Sphere gives patients noticeable improvements in vision and comfort
day and night. Plus, the redesigned edge seems to provide an even
better fit.”
To ensure better comfort, three ingredients have been added to
the packaged saline solution, giving the lens a “TripleTear
Lubrication System™.” The new ingredients include hyaluronic acid
(HA), which has been shown to provide superior hydration and
lubrication, as well as elements known to lock-in moisture and
stabilize tears.
The new edge on the NaturalVue Sphere is designed to balance
movement for a more optimal fit while still allowing adequate tear
exchange to wash away debris. There is also a Class 2 UV blocker
for an added layer of protection.*
“Innovation is core to our DNA,” said VTI’s CEO, Stephen Snowdy,
PhD. “It’s in our proprietary NaturalVue Multifocal 1 Day Contact
Lens and in our NaturalVue Sphere product which, incidentally, is
also the only spherical daily disposable lens with a full power
range2: +4.00 to – 12.00 in 0.25D steps for more precise vision.
And now, our CleanComfort technology is yet another example of how
we are ‘redefining vision.’ The recent clinical study demonstrates
both the superiority of the Sphere product and our ability to
respond to the needs of the markets we serve.”
