Avaira Toric contact lenses for astigmatism have received Special 501(k) clearance from the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and will re-launch in early May of this year.
The FDA clearance follows last year’s recall of certain lots of Avaira Toric two-week silicone hydrogel contact lenses due to silicone oil residue found on some lenses.
Manufactured by CooperVision, the contact lenses feature Aquaform Comfort Science Technology that allows the lenses to stay moist and transmit high levels of oxygen.
