This model uses a unique HyperGel polymer that provides the eyes with the necessary moisture throughout the day. The range includes not only contact lenses with different periods of use, but also moisturizing drops, as well as a cleaning solution. Related products have received high ratings from buyers, it is convenient to order everything you need from the manufacturer at once. The lenses have only one minus - an overestimated optical power. Because of this, it can be difficult to focus and adjust the clarity of vision.

The Alcon brand is No. 1 in ophthalmology according to users and experts. The manufacturer has been manufacturing optics since 1945. It was this company that created the world's first solution for disinfecting contact lenses without mechanical cleaning - "Opti Free Express". Also in the assortment are many drugs for the treatment of conjunctivitis, dry eye syndrome and other diseases. Dailies Total1 lenses are made from a water-gradient material that effectively retains up to 100% moisture. They can be worn up to 16 hours. The breathability here is one of the best, and this was achieved without reducing the water content. The main disadvantage is the highest cost, although the price-quality ratio here is excellent.

Acuvue is a subsidiary brand of Johnson & Johnson and the world leader in disposable contact lenses. Optical products from this manufacturer need no introduction. The best in terms of price-quality ratio deservedly became a series with a UV filter and HydraLuxe technology, which provides hydration and comfort throughout the day. Customers can choose between two radii of curvature, and there are products for almost any diopter in the range. The reviews write that the model is practically not felt in the eyes, there is no dryness and other unpleasant sensations. Despite the high quality of contact lenses, some buyers still consider their price too high. Another disadvantage is not the smallest diameter.

With the lowest price in the category, the CooperVision Clariti 1 day impresses with its quality. This is not surprising, because the American brand back in 1959 became the third company in the United States with official permission to manufacture contact lenses. Moreover, the assortment includes toric models for the correction of astigmatism. For the manufacture of products used a revolutionary material with resistance to the accumulation of deposits. The one-day ruler is equipped with a UV filter and passes 100% oxygen. The special WetLoc technology is responsible for preventing dryness. Buyers confirm that the lenses are comfortable to wear, but there are also disadvantages in the reviews: thin material can tear right in your hands.

Like all contact lenses for a month, this model is sold in sets of 6 pieces. There are options with diopters for nearsightedness and farsightedness.Bausch & Lomb SofLens 59 earned a place in the ranking due to the favorable price-quality ratio, considering the wearing period. The reviews write that the lenses are soft, they are easy to put on and take off even for beginners. However, the material seems outdated compared to silicone hydrogel. It has reduced breathability, with prolonged use there is a feeling of dryness. Not all users find optical products comfortable. During the first wear, a veil may appear before the eyes, sometimes objects split in two. But it passes quickly.

Air Optix Aqua is a series of contact lenses from the Alcon brand with a good price-quality ratio. The model is characterized by increased breathability: the material passes 5 times more oxygen compared to optical products from other manufacturers. Thanks to this, soft lenses will be comfortable for the eyes throughout the day. In addition, SmartShield technology is used here.The ultra-thin protective layer helps to retain moisture on the surface and prevent the build-up of deposits. Wearing mode is flexible, so you can wear lenses for more than 10 hours and even sleep in them. The disadvantages include reduced water content and harsh material. By the end of the wearing period, dryness appears in the eyes.

CooperVision Biomedics 55 Evolution has a good water content, but the breathability is low compared to the best manufacturers. But for such a low price, you can forgive these shortcomings. The good news is that there is a blocking of ultraviolet rays. Of course, it is not recommended to look at the sun for a long time without glasses, but still they will protect the cornea from burns and subsequent discomfort while walking. It is also the only model with the ability to select the radius of curvature. Thanks to this variety, optics will be as comfortable and suitable as possible for a particular person.The most significant drawback was that the hydrogel passes air worse. Sleeping in lenses is strictly prohibited.

Ophthalmic Butterfly Clear - quarter lenses from a Korean manufacturer. The main advantage was the cost - less than 600 rubles for a set of 4 pieces. This is enough for six months, which is much more profitable than Acuvue and other brands. Since these contact lenses are transparent, they are only available in a prescription version. The price-quality ratio is excellent, given the budget optics. Although the products are more dense, they are comfortable to wear. Even after many hours of use, there is no burning sensation and dryness in the eyes. But it is important to consult with a specialist before buying, as some users have had problems. Another disadvantage is that the material is easily torn by careless handling.

The Illusion Colors Shine series from Belmore is the perfect combination of price and quality for lovers of colored lenses. Available in 6 beautiful light shades that cover brown eyes. The choice of diopters is small (it is problematic for people with a strong “minus” to choose a pair for themselves), but it is better than most manufacturers. It is necessary to change the optics every three months, so that the purchase will be as profitable as possible. The reviews praise the model for its comfort while wearing: the material is thin and weightless, it is not felt during prolonged use. However, occasionally come across products with marriage. Such lenses are difficult to insert, the eyes dry out quickly from them. Not everyone likes bright colors - they look unnatural.

There are legends about Korean "doll" lenses. They have a maximum period of use (1 year), there are many models with interesting patterns and the effect of enlarging the eyes. They are able to completely block even the brown color. Therefore, they are often ordered to create an original image for a masquerade or a party. As for DOX, their quality is quite up to the high bar set by other Korean manufacturers. Contact lenses are thin and breathable, they are not felt on the eyes. Thanks to the sale by the piece, you can order a pair with different diopters. The only caveat is that you need to consult a doctor about curvature, otherwise the optical product may slip.
