Helps
protect against transmission of harmful UV radiation to the cornea
and into the eye.
* WARNING: UV-absorbing contact lenses are NOT substitutes for protective
UV-absorbing eyewear such as UV-absorbing goggles or sunglasses
because they do not completely cover the eye and surrounding area.
You should continue to use UV-absorbing eyewear as directed. NOTE:
Long term exposure to UV radiation is one of the risk factors associated
with cataracts. Exposure is based on a number of factors such as
environmental conditions (altitude, geography, cloud cover) and
personal factors (extent and nature of outdoor activities). UV-Blocking
contact lenses help provide protection against harmful UV radiation.
However, clinical studies have not been done to demonstrate that
wearing UV-Blocking contact lenses reduces the risk of developing
cataracts or other eye disorders. Consult your eye care practitioner
for more information.
