Acuvue Oasys Hydraclear Plus 12 Pack contact lenses are designed to provide an extremely comfortable contact-wearing experience. These contacts feature the Hydraclear Plus technology that keeps your eyes moist even in dry environments. Never worry about wearing your lenses incorrectly as these contacts come with an inside-out marking so you can handle and insert them properly each time.
These contact lenses will arrive packaged as 12 individual lenses in buffered cellulose with methyl ether cellulose, meaning they are sterile and able to withstand storage and shipping conditions. The recommended wear time for Acuvue Oasys is up to two weeks of daily wear and cleansing or six nights/seven days of continuous wear. Do not wear any contact lenses for longer than the recommended length of time suggested to avoid the risk of eye infections.
You’ll enjoy the following features when wearing these contact lenses in addition to convenience and easy handling.
Acuvue Oasys with Hydraclear Plus 12pk offers the highest level of UV protection of any contact lens on the market today. This contact lens protects the eyes from more than 99% of the sun’s UVB rays and over 95% UVA rays.
It is important to note that UV-absorbing contact lenses are not substitutes for wearing UV-absorbing eyewear such as sunglasses because they do not completely cover the eye and surrounding areas.
The eyes need an adequate oxygen supply to remain white and healthy. The Acuvue Oasys contacts have high oxygen permeability at 147 Dk/t which lets the eyes breathe well and stay healthy.
If you suffer from chronic dry eye, a contact lens with a higher Dk/t value may be better suited for your eye’s health. Bausch & Lomb Ultra (163 Dk/t), Air Optix Night & Day (175 Dk/t), and DAILIES Total 1 (156 Dk/t) have higher oxygen transmissibility than the Acuvue Oasys Hydraclear Plus lenses. You’ll need to speak with your eye care provider before trying other contact lenses that are not prescribed to you.
Uncomfortable contact lenses can cause dryness and eye irritation. Acuvue Oasys employs the moisture-locking technology of Hydraclear Plus keeping in moisture all day long and preventing dryness or irritation. The ultra-thin edges also ensure that the lenses conform to the eye surface for maximum comfort
Johnson & Johnson has released other Acuvue brand contact lenses with newer technology that also provide exceptional comfort and hydration. The monthly disposable Acuvue Vita contacts utilize HydraMax Technology to maximize and maintain the lens hydration throughout its wear time. There’s also the 1-Day Acuvue Oasys with HydraLuxe that utilizes a proprietary wetting technology designed to mimic the eye’s natural tear film perfect for those who would prefer a daily disposable lens option.

Acuvue Oasys spherical lenses are used to correct two refractive errors – myopia and hyperopia. Acuvue Oasys 24 pack is also available for correcting both eye conditions.
Nearsightedness occurs when the eyeball is too long relative to the focusing power of the lens and cornea. The abnormal eye shape causes light to bend or refract incorrectly, focusing the image in front of the retina rather than on it. Contact lenses correct myopia by diverging light rays, reducing the eye’s focusing power, and moving the focusing point back onto the retina.
Farsightedness is when a person can see far objects clearly but struggle to see near objects or read close text. The condition occurs when the eyes focus objects behind the retina instead of on it. Hyperopia is corrected with contacts by converging light rays, increasing the eye’s focusing power and moving the focus point forward onto the retina.
One of the factors you must consider before deciding on a type of contact lens is your lifestyle. Acuvue Oasys 1-2 week contacts provide day-long hydration, making them ideal for individuals who spend time in dry, dusty, or cold environments. The unique Hydraclear technology reduces dryness, making it perfect for you if you experience eye dryness or depend on rewetting drops. Acuvue Oasys 12 Pack is approved for extended wear (up to 2 weeks), so they are also suitable for people who need to sleep with their contact lenses in.
