Rigid & Gas Permeable Contact Lens Solution

What are rigid or gas permeable contact lenses?

Rigid or gas-permeable contact lenses are known for their thick, yet breathable design. They were invented before soft contact lenses and were once the dominant type of contact lenses on the market.

Benefits of rigid corneal lenses

The rigid corneal lenses offer several advantages over other lenses such as:

1. Sharp vision

The gas-permeable lenses are custom-made to adjust to the shape of the eyes. They tend to move with the eye in each blink, allowing tears to circulate underneath the eye. These lenses offer a more stable and accurate correction of astigmatism.

2. High oxygen permeability

The rigid corneal lenses allow more oxygen to reach the eyes, lowering the risk of problems caused by lack of oxygen.

3. Durability

These lenses are made from a more durable material and are less likely to tear. They last longer and are considered to be more cost-effective in the long run.

Differences between rigid gas permeable contact lenses and soft contact lenses

One of the primary differences is that rigid gas permeable contacts do not contain water in their design; however, they make up for this with impressive breathability. Some of the differences are listed below:

• They are smaller in size compared to soft lenses
• They allow a free flow of oxygen to the cornea
• They require a rigid gas permeable cleaning solution

What is a rigid gas permeable contact lens solution?

Rigid gas permeable contact lenses should be cleaned thoroughly and stored overnight to ensure they’re hygienic, safe, and comfortable to wear the next morning.

Highly adept and specifically created to clean RGP lenses, rigid gas permeable contact lens solution is an effective cleaner that eliminates bacteria or debris that may have accumulated on your lens throughout the day.
