Polysoft 55 Aspheric is sold under a variety of brand names

The Polysoft 55 Aspheric contact lenses are popular contact lenses that have been on the market since 1995. They have a high water content, being made of 55 percent water and 45 percent polymacon, a composition which contributes to the comfort of the lenses. The popular lenses are packaged in buffered saline solution and are intended for one to two weeks of use before requiring replacement. These contact lenses have a tint to them to make them easy to find in the solution.

Like all soft contact lenses, the Polysoft 55 Aspheric contact lenses require cleaning and maintenance. This means the user must use a cleaning solution to disinfect the contact lenses to protect the eyes from infection. Since normal eye secretions can result in protein deposits on the surface of the lenses, they must be cleaned. Protein deposit buildups on the surface of lenses results in the lenses feeling uncomfortable and scratchy on the eye. This situation is prevented by regular cleaning and there is a wide variety of solutions available on the market for the user to select from. If the user wants to minimize handling of the lenses, there are no rub formulas available.

The popular lenses are subject to a double adjustment to correct for aberrations that occur in both the contact lenses and in the eye. This is why they have such a high level of visual acuity.

Polysoft 55 Aspheric contact lenses are manufactured by Ocular Science of South San Francisco, California. The lenses are available under a wide variety of brand names. Different outlets have their own brand name on the lenses, even though all of the lenses are identical. The popular lenses are available at many different online and land based outlets and the smart buyer will do the required comparison shopping to obtain the best price for the quantity purchased. Knowing the different brand names under which the lenses are sold allows the buy to obtain the best deal.
