Any contact lens manufacturer can say they have a comfortable lens. But the reality is, hydration plays a major role when it comes to contact lens comfort. Let us explain why. 

A common complaint of contact lens wearers is the feeling of dry eyes. This happens when a person has compromised tear quality – tears that don’t lubricate properly. This makes it harder to wear contacts because contact lenses work like a sponge. They rely on your tears to hydrate them, and to keep them floating on your eye.

Most contact lenses dehydrate, losing up to 10% of their water. In order to be comfortable, they need to get that water back. The way they do this is from tears. So, if you have poor tear quality, the lenses don’t get hydrated. This is what results in dryness.

Extreme H2O contact lenses have unique hydration properties. They are able to retain up to 99% of their water content. They also rehydrate at a superior rate. This means that even if you have poor tear quality, you can still comfortably wear Extreme H2O.
