SilSoft™

SilSoft™ contact lenses are specially designed soft contact lenses for adults and children, respectively, who have had cataract surgery without an intraocular lens being implanted (aphakia). Because the material allows high levels of oxygen to pass through it, SilSoft™ lenses can even be worn overnight (if recommended by an eye care professional).*

  • For daily or overnight wear*
  • Allows more oxygen to pass through than any other lens for aphakia
  • Treatment option for adults and pediatric patients recovering from cataract surgery

Important Safety Information

*As with any contact lens, problems can result in serious injury to the eye, including loss of vision, and clinical studies have shown that the risk of serious adverse reactions is increased when lenses are worn overnight. It is essential that patients follow the eye care practitioner’s direction and all labeling instructions for proper use of lenses and lens care products. Consult the package insert for complete information.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION FOR GAS PERMEABLE AND CUSTOMIZED SOFT CONTACT LENSES WARNINGS:

Patients should be advised of the following warnings pertaining to contact lens wear:

  • Problems with contact lenses and lens care products could result in serious injury to the eye. It is essential that patients follow their eyecare practitioner’s directions and all labeling instructions for proper use of lenses and lens care products, including the lens case. Eye problems, including corneal ulcers, can develop rapidly and lead to loss of vision.
  • Daily wear lenses are not indicated for overnight wear, and patients should be instructed not to wear lenses while sleeping. Clinical studies have shown that the risk of serious adverse reactions is increased when daily wear lenses are worn overnight.
  • Studies have shown that contact lens wearers who are smokers have a higher incidence of adverse reactions than nonsmokers.
  • If a patient experiences eye discomfort, excessive tearing, vision changes, or redness of the eye, the patient should be instructed to immediately remove lenses and promptly contact his or her eyecare practitioner.
