Abbey Eye Care is now pleased to offer this exciting new technology to our patients. CooperVision has developed the first contact lens designed with special optics to reduce the strain that digital devices can cause on our eyes.

What is Digital Eye Fatigue?

It is the ocular discomfort felt after 2+ hours in front of digital devices. It is characterized by:

• Tiredness
• Dryness
• Redness

What impact does it have on our eyes and vision?

• It can lead to the focusing muscle in the eye becoming tired. The ciliary muscle inside the eye works extra hard whenever ou have to focus up close. Constantly moving on and off screens is a sure fire way to overwork them and give yourself eye fatigue.
• Blinking less causes dryness. On average we blink 18 times per minute, when you use digital devices you only blink about 4 times per minute (80% reduction).

How can these new contact lenses help?

The Biofinity Energys is specifically designed for digital device use and features the following benefits:

• Innovative digital zone optics – to help with eye tiredness caused by focusing on close up digital devices.
• Aquaform technology – provides natural moisture and breathability to help with eye dryness.
