Alcon Dailies TOTAL1™: The Gold Standard for Daily Disposable Comfort
If you find that your eyes feel tired, red, or "sandy" by the end of the day, Alcon Dailies TOTAL1™ is engineered to be the solution. As the world’s first and only Water Gradient daily disposable lens, it transitions from a highly breathable silicone core to a surface that is nearly 100% water.
For those in Malaysia dealing with the constant shift between outdoor humidity and dry, air-conditioned environments, Dailies TOTAL1™ provides a "cushion of moisture" that lasts for up to 16 hours. It is often considered the premium, low-risk default for users with sensitive eyes or those who work long hours in front of digital screens.
Why Dailies TOTAL1™ is the "Premium" Choice
-
Water Gradient Technology: The core contains only 33% water for maximum oxygen, while the outermost surface approaches 100% water. Your eyelid touches only a silky-smooth cushion of moisture, not the lens itself.
-
SmarTears® Technology: This unique feature releases an ingredient found naturally in your tears to help stabilize the lipid layer of your tear film, actively reducing evaporation and dryness.
-
Extreme Breathability (156 Dk/t): It is one of the most breathable daily lenses available, allowing 6 times more oxygen to reach your eyes than traditional hydrogel lenses. This keeps your eyes white and healthy-looking.
-
No Cleaning Required: Being a daily disposable, you start with a fresh, sterile surface every morning, which is the most hygienic way to wear contact lenses.
FAQ
1. Is Dailies TOTAL1™ suitable for dry eyes?
Yes, it is widely considered one of the best lenses for dry eye sufferers. The combination of the Water Gradient surface and SmarTears® technology is specifically designed to maintain moisture even after 12+ hours of wear.
2. Why is Dailies TOTAL1™ more expensive than other daily lenses?
The price reflects the advanced material science. While standard lenses are made of a single uniform material, TOTAL1™ uses a complex dual-layer construction. For many, the "no-lens feel" and the lack of need for rewetting drops justify the investment.
3. Does Dailies TOTAL1™ have UV protection?
The standard Dailies TOTAL1™ (Spherical) lenses do not have built-in UV protection. However, the Dailies TOTAL1™ for Astigmatism version does include Class 1 UV blocking. If using the standard version, it is recommended to wear UV-blocking sunglasses when outdoors.
4. Can I wear these if I have Astigmatism (San-Guang)?
Yes. Alcon offers Dailies TOTAL1™ for Astigmatism, which uses the Precision Balance 8|4® design to ensure the lens stays stable on your eye, providing clear and consistent vision without blurring when you blink.
