PRECISION1 for Astigmatism are daily disposable toric contacts made for prescriptions that combine nearsightedness or farsightedness with astigmatism. SMARTSURFACE technology creates a thin, moisture-rich surface layer around a verofilcon A silicone hydrogel core. The lens uses an 8.5 mm base curve, 14.5 mm diameter, and Class 1 UV absorption. Open a fresh lens for each wearing day and discard it after removal; no cleaning solution or storage case is required.
PRECISION1 for Astigmatism is a one-day contact lens for people prescribed power, cylinder, and axis correction. Alcon builds the lens around a verofilcon A silicone hydrogel core and SMARTSURFACE technology, which places a thin layer with more than 80% water at the outer surface of an unworn lens. The core water content is 51%. This structure is intended to keep the moisture-focused feature where the lens interacts with the eyelids and tear film while retaining the handling and oxygen-transmission characteristics of the core material. Each lens is worn once and discarded after removal.
The lens has a 90 Dk/t oxygen transmissibility at -3.00D, an 8.5 mm base curve, and a 14.5 mm diameter. Its toric geometry is designed to hold the cylinder correction in the prescribed orientation. A VISITINT handling tint makes the clear lens easier to see in its blister without changing eye color.
Class 1 UV absorption filters at least 90% of UVA and at least 99% of UVB rays. Because a contact lens does not cover the entire eye or the surrounding skin, this feature does not replace UV-blocking sunglasses. It should be treated as a verified lens specification, not as a promise of protection from eye disease.
This model is intended for wearers whose contact lens prescription specifically names PRECISION1 for Astigmatism. Its daily schedule may suit people who prefer not to clean and store reusable lenses. It is not multifocal and has no ADD parameter. Do not transfer a prescription from a spherical PRECISION1 lens or another toric brand without professional fitting.

Use a valid prescription for this exact lens and verify power, cylinder, and axis for each eye. This listing contains 30 lenses with one parameter combination, so different prescriptions for the right and left eye require separate boxes.
No. They are daily disposable lenses. Open a fresh lens for each wearing day and discard it after removal. Do not clean or store it for another day.
What does SMARTSURFACE technology mean?SMARTSURFACE is Alcon’s name for the moisture-rich layer at the outside of the verofilcon A lens. The surface of an unworn lens contains more than 80% water, while its silicone hydrogel core contains 51% water.
Does this lens correct presbyopia?No. PRECISION1 for Astigmatism corrects myopia or hyperopia together with astigmatism. It has cylinder and axis settings but no multifocal ADD value.
How many lenses are in a box?This box contains 30 lenses with the same power, cylinder, and axis. Different parameters for each eye require separate boxes.
Do these contacts have a UV filter?Yes. They meet Alcon’s Class 1 UV absorption specification. Contact lenses cover only part of the eye, so continue using UV-blocking sunglasses as directed.
Availability and lead time depend on the prescription parameters. Some configurations are supplied to us from the manufacturer. Estimated shipping time is up to 10 business days.
