New data for ACUVUE OASYS MAX 1-Day for ASTIGMATISM: demonstrating statistical superiority in patient reported outcomes vs. Dailies Total1^® for Astigmatism, and the impact of which lens is worn first on subjective performance

Patient reported vision outcomes for two daily disposable toric soft contact lenses - Giovanna Olivares et al.

• This research showed that 62% of patients preferred ACUVUE OASYS MAX 1-Day for ASTIGMATISM for overall vision versus only 18% who preferred
  Dailies Total1^® for Astigmatism.
• Results showed that ACUVUE OASYS MAX 1-Day for ASTIGMATISM was consistently rated higher for overall opinion and all comfort metrics.
• When asked about vision on computer screens and digital device use, 65% preferred the ACUVUE OASYS MAX 1-Day for ASTIGMATISM lens, while only 16% preferred Dailies Total1^® for Astigmatism.
• The preference highlights the benefits of the combined innovations of TearStable Technology, OptiBlue Light Filter Technology, and BLINK STABILIZED Design, a design that naturally realigns with every blink and is more independent of gravity, eye gaze and head position¹.

Evaluation of treatment effects in a study comparing two daily disposable toric soft contact lenses - Giovanna Olivares et al.

• In this research, patients preferred ACUVUE OASYS MAX 1-Day for ASTIGMATISM 3.3x more than Dailies Total1^® for Astigmatism.
• When ACUVUE OASYS MAX 1-Day for ASTIGMATISM was worn second, positive feedback of overall opinion increased to 80.0% versus 33.3% for Dailies Total1^® for Astigmatism.
• Statistically this is known as an "order effect," meaning once a patient experiences better performance with a lens, their opinion of a prior lens experience can decrease.

Extending vision correction for more presbyopic contact lens wearers with ACUVUE OASYS MAX 1-Day MULTIFOCAL for ASTIGMATISM - Eugene Appenteng Osae et al.

• This study compares the results from two studies, showing that the novel
  ACUVUE OASYS MAX 1-Day MULTIFOCAL for ASTIGMATISM used by a population with
  1.00 D to 1.75 D of refractive astigmatism, provides similar vision quality to the
  ACUVUE OASYS MAX 1-Day MULTIFOCAL for a population with 0.0 D to 0.75 D of refractive astigmatism.
• The new multifocal toric lens therefore extends the coverage by daily disposable multifocal contact lenses to a new population of presbyopic patients.

ACUVUE OASYS MAX 1-Day MULTIFOCAL for ASTIGMATISM is the first and only daily disposable contact lens for people with both astigmatism and presbyopia.² This pioneering contact lens provides patients crisp, clear, stable vision at all distances and in all lighting conditions, along with comfort that lasts all day.³ The lens is now available in the U.S, Canada and select markets in the EMEA and APAC. Additional launches are ongoing.
