What are Biofinity contact lenses?
Biofinity’s range of contact lenses use ‘comfilcon A’, a silicone hydrogel material that is recognised to be highly comfortable and breathable. They are one of the most popular brands of contact lenses in the world today, and for good reason! Biofinity contact lenses are premium lenses for experienced wearers.
Biofinity, created by CooperVision, is a range of contact lenses that provide an unrivalled degree of comfort for monthly contact lens wearers. Designed with an unmatched commitment to comfort, Biofinity is an excellent choice in today’s busy world, ensuring people can have uninterrupted, flawless vision all day long.
Why should I choose Biofinity lenses?
Biofinity contact lenses are an excellent choice for people with a range of prescriptions, including complex prescriptions. They offer many benefits, including advanced comfort, breathability, ease of handling, and more.
Unmatched comfort
Biofinity contact lenses deliver unmatched comfort for all-day wear. The full range benefits from ‘comfilcon A’, a silicone hydrogel material which allows eyes to receive plenty of oxygen, keeping them fresher and moist and preventing the onset of dry eye and irritation over even the longest of days.
Technology
The Biofinity range also benefits from Aquaform Technology which keeps lenses wettable and soft to wear. This makes Biofinity contact lenses ideal for those who are prone to dry eyes as a result of digital screen use or other factors of modern living such as drying elements from central heating and air conditioning.
Suitable for any visual requirements
The Biofinity range of contact lenses caters to all visual requirements. The flagship monthly Biofinity lenses can correct short-sightedness and long-sightedness in a range of dioptres from +8.00D to -12.00D. Biofinity toric contact lenses correct astigmatism, while Biofinity multifocal corrects presbyopia. Other Biofinity lenses available include Biofinity XR and Biofinity XR Toric, specialist lenses designed for those with more extreme prescriptions.
High performance
Biofinity lenses boast an aspheric front surface design for excellent visual acuity. The curvature changes across the surface of the lens, resulting in a gradual change in power from the centre of the lens to the edge.
Ease of handling
Biofinity lenses feature a light blue visibility tint to ensure that the process of inserting and removing your lenses is effortless.

Who are Biofinity contact lenses for?
Biofinity contact lenses are designed for contact lens wearers with a valid and appropriate prescription for short-sightedness, long-sightedness, presbyopia or astigmatism. They are likely to be prescribed to contact lens wearers who want a premium experience and are familiar with contact lenses.
