Fresh Lenses Every Day
Daily Contact Lenses
Daily contact lenses are single-use lenses worn for one day and discarded after use. They eliminate the need for overnight lens storage or routine cleaning between wears. A current prescription and proper contact lens fitting are still essential, and the lenses available to you depend on your prescription, eye-care needs and brand.
A Fresh Pair for Every Day
Daily disposable contact lenses are worn once and discarded, with no overnight cleaning or storage. They can be convenient for everyday, occasional or travel use.
Contact lenses require a current prescription and proper fitting; availability depends on your prescription and brand.
Why People Consider Daily Disposable Contact Lenses
With a true daily disposable schedule, you begin each wearing day with a new pair and discard the lenses when you are finished.
No Overnight Storage
Daily disposable lenses are not stored for reuse after the wearing day is finished.
No Routine Cleaning Between Wears
Because the lenses are discarded after use, there is no cleaning and disinfecting routine for that pair before another day of wear.
Flexible Use
Depending on your prescription and fitting, daily lenses may suit regular wear, occasional use or situations such as travel.
Daily Lenses Still Require Professional Eye Care
Contact lenses are medical devices and should be prescribed and properly fitted. Lens material, dimensions and prescription requirements can differ, so a lens that works for one person may not be appropriate for another.
Follow the wearing schedule and instructions provided by your eye-care professional and the lens manufacturer. Do not extend a daily disposable lens beyond its intended replacement schedule.

Simple Daily Habits Still Matter
A fresh pair each day does not remove the need for safe contact lens handling. Wash and thoroughly dry your hands before touching your lenses, and follow the instructions provided for your specific contact lenses.
Daily wear contact lenses should not be worn while sleeping unless your eye-care professional has specifically prescribed a lens for overnight wear. Contact lenses should also be kept away from tap water, swimming pools, hot tubs, lakes and other water sources.
If you develop eye pain, unusual redness, irritation or a change in vision while wearing contact lenses, remove the lenses. Seek advice from an eye-care professional if symptoms continue, worsen or are concerning.
Find the Contact Lens Type That Fits Your Needs
Daily disposable lenses are one option. Your prescription, vision needs, wearing habits and professional fitting help determine which contact lens type is appropriate for you.

Your Prescription Is Only Part of the Fit
Choosing contact lenses involves more than selecting a replacement schedule. Your eye-care professional can assess your prescription and determine which lens options are suitable for your eyes and intended use.
A contact lens fitting can help determine:
- Prescription needs: the vision correction required for each eye
- Lens suitability: whether a particular lens design is appropriate for your needs
- Comfort and fit: how the selected contact lens sits and performs on the eye
- Wearing schedule: how and when the lenses should be worn and replaced
- Handling guidance: how to insert, remove and handle the lenses safely
Confirm Your Prescription and Lens Availability
Contact lens availability depends on your prescription and the brands or lens designs suitable for your fitting.
If your prescription has changed, expired or no longer provides comfortable vision, arrange appropriate professional eye care before purchasing replacement contact lenses.
