Daily contact lenses are lenses designed to be worn for just one day before being disposed of. You might have heard them referred to as 'dailies' or 'daily disposable lenses', and there are also brands of contact lenses that use 'Dailies' in their names which can make it a little confusing.
The most important thing to remember is that these lenses are for just one use each. How long you can wear them each day depends on the brand, but some can be worn for as long as 16 hours per day. Once you've removed them, they can be replaced with a fresh pair, but you should never use the same ones again.
It's well known that it's best to replace contact lenses regularly, but it used to be far too costly to dispose of them often. As a result, cleaning solutions and rewetting agents were created to get a longer lifespan from lenses without compromising on hygiene and safety. Thanks to modern materials and engineering processes, contact lenses can now be made for frequent replacement at a reasonable price.
What vision problems do daily contact lenses correct?
Daily contact lenses can be used if you have short-sightedness (known as Myopia)
You can also use daily lenses for long-sightedness (Hyperopia)
There are toric daily contact lenses available to treat astigmatism
Multifocal daily lenses can be used to combat the effects of presbyopia
Many people choose daily disposable lenses because they offer a high level of cleanliness. Although monthly and 2-weekly contact lenses are hygienic and comfortable, they won't match a daily lens for consistent performance.
There is no avoiding the fact that the longer you wear contact lenses, the more likely a build-up of protein deposits or debris becomes. Of course, your lenses can be cleaned to minimise the effects of this, and they'll be safe to wear, but there's a chance they won't feel quite the same as the first time you wore them.
Even the most rigorous cleaning schedules can't match the fresh feeling of wearing new lenses whether premium or relatively cheap daily contact lenses. Dailies don't only ensure hygienic wear: you can feel the difference between them and monthlies if you change over.
You can also expect a consistently higher quality of vision with daily contact lenses. Due to exposure to both the elements and your eyes, over 30 days, you may notice a slight deterioration in the quality of vision with a monthly lens. As you wear a new pair of daily lenses each day, your sight remains as crisp and clear at the end of the month as it is at the start.
People often like to wear daily contact lenses for sheer convenience. Without the need for cleaning and storing in solution at night, you can simply dispose of your lenses and get into bed. Then, the next day, just open a new container and pop in your clean lenses. There's no effort required, and you can be sure of perfect, comfortable vision each day.
Daily disposable lenses are also a great choice for less regular contact lens wearers. If you don't wear them every day, it can be easy to lose track of when you need to replace monthly or two weekly lenses, as they can only be worn for 30 or 14 consecutive days respectively. As single-use lenses, you can leave weeks between each wear without your contacts expiring, which is handy if you just wear contact lenses for sports or a night out.
Which type of daily lenses you choose depends on what your needs are. If you suffer from dry or irritated eyes, it's important to make sure that your lenses won't exacerbate your condition. You should look for lenses that offer high levels of water content or oxygen permeability, such as 1-Day Acuvue Moist, Dailies AquaComfort Plus or 1 Day Acuvue TruEye.
As UV damage is cumulative, everything you do to protect your eyes will help to prevent deterioration caused by high exposure. While sunglasses are always the best form of defence, you can choose daily contact lenses that also include UV blocking technology to provide an extra layer of defence against sun damage. Good daily disposable lenses with UV blocking include Clariti 1 Day and 1-Day Acuvue Moist.
Some brands, such as 1-Day Acuvue Moist and Proclear 1-Day also have handling tints. These make applying your contact lenses the right way around considerably easier, and so these daily lenses are an excellent choice for first time wearers.
Of course, one of the biggest factors that comes into buying daily contact lenses is the price. While dailies are usually more expensive than monthly lenses, there are plenty of high-quality, yet affordable options for you to choose from, including our exclusive cost-effective range, everclear. everclear ELITE is a great value all rounder that keeps eyes moisturised without costing a fortune. If you're really looking to save, then everclear ADM provides affordable lenses that still provide the utmost comfort and the highest quality of vision.
Some daily contact lenses, such as 1-Day Acuvue Moist, everclear ADM, and Proclear 1 Day, are made from a soft material called hydrogel. This material has been around for a while, but manufacturers are creating new hydrogel lenses that are popular today. Manufacturers often choose hydrogel lenses as they retain high levels of water, so they are often chosen by people who suffer from dry eyes.
Silicone hydrogel daily contact lenses are among the most popular types of lenses and are often chosen for their breathability. These daily lenses let a greater amount of oxygen permeate through the lens to reach the cornea, resulting in white eyes that look and feel healthy. One brand of dailies that contains silicone hydrogel is everclear ELITE, a cost effective soft contact lens which is exclusive to Vision direct.
If you have a pronounced astigmatism, you will require specially designed contact lenses that fit your eyes securely, called toric lenses. These come in a variety of wearing patterns, including as a daily disposable lens. Many of the top brands of daily lenses come in toric forms, such as Acuvue Moist for Astigmatism and Proclear 1 Day Toric.
Rather than use bifocal or varifocal reading glasses, you can also use multifocal daily contact lenses to correct sight affected by presbyopia. These lenses make it easy to focus on both near and distant objects without needing glasses. Like toric lenses, many of the top brands of daily lenses are available in multifocal form, such as 1-day Acuvue Moist Multifocal and Dailies AquaComfort Multifocal.
