As populations age, the dual challenge of managing astigmatism and presbyopia in patients has been increasingly pressing, with nearly half of patients affected by astigmatism and presbyopia projected to impact up to 2.1 billion people by 2030. The recent UK and Ireland launch of ACUVUE® OASYS MAX 1-Day MULTIFOCAL for ASTIGMATISM by Johnson & Johnson Vision marks a significant development, as it becomes the first daily disposable multifocal toric lens to address this challenge. The lens aims to enhance visual performance across distances, with a reported 91% initial fitting success rate.
