Acuvue 2 vs. Acuvue Advance vs. 1-day Acuvue?!


Question: Which of these let the most oxygen into the cornea? If anyone knows the dk value that would be good too. And is there a difference between acuvue advance and oasys because i currently have oasys and they aren't working good for me.

Advance definitely allows the most oxygen with a dK somewhere close to 100 (just going off the top of my head). Oasys is usually much more comfortable than advance. It could be the base curve on the Oasys, they just came out with an 8.8. I would recommend trying 02 Optix, that's what I prefer to fit my patients in. If you are a previous AV2 wearer though you will probably not be too fond of any of the silicone-hydrogel lenses. I hate the AV 1 day, they are very flimsy lenses.
