Avaira Contacts: Back on the Market

Last year the Avaira contacts were recalled "due to the level of a residue on certain Avaira lenses." This residue caused "hazy" vision and eye pain. Although it did not affect all Avaira lenses the recall was still for all Avairas and they were not selling them for months. This caused some confusion for quite some time for both us and our patients.

Fortunately, after waiting patiently they have been released onto the market again. This is great news for our patients who loved the fit, feel, vision with the Avaira lenses and who preferred a two-week disposable lens to a monthly disposable lens.



What does this mean for our previous Avaira wearers?

When you come in for your next annual exam we will be able to put you back in the lenses you love, the Avaira brand lenses.
