			<question>Can everyone wear AIR OPTIX NIGHT&amp;DAY Soft Contact Lenses for 30 nights of continuous wear? </question>
			<answer><![CDATA[ Not everyone can reach the maximum wear time of 30 continuous nights. During the U.S. clinical study, 1000 of the 1300 eyes dispensed completed the full year of lens wear, with 67% of those wearing the lens between 22 to 30 days. Your optician may recommend a shorter wearing time depending on your individual needs, and you should always adhere to his or her recommendations. Once lenses are removed, your eyes should have a rest without lens wear for at least one overnight. ]]></answer>

			<question>Why doesn't AOSEPT PLUS cause symptoms of dryness and discomfort like other multipurpose solutions? </question>
			<answer><![CDATA[Multipurpose solutions contain added preservatives and harsh chemicals that may cause dryness and discomfort for contact lens wearers. AOSEPT PLUS does not have any of these harsh chemicals or added preservatives. In fact, after the six-hour neutralisation process is complete, the lenses will be soaking in a gentle, sterile saline similar to tears. Clinical research shows patients experience more comfort and less irritation when they use AOSEPT PLUS. ]]></answer>

			<question>How does AOSEPT PLUS effectively clean without rubbing the lens?</question>
			<answer><![CDATA[AOSEPT PLUS has a built-in cleaner, as well as hydrogen peroxide to penetrate the lenses for a deep cleaning. Hydrogen peroxide itself offers triple-action cleaning power through oxidation, bubbling action and ionic displacement. AOSEPT PLUS meets the two tests established by the FDA; the primary criteria of the Stand Alone Test and the Regimen Test, for disinfecting solutions in order to be approved as a no-rub lens care solution. AOSEPT PLUS also helps prevent serious eye infections by killing harmful micro-organisms on contact lenses. ]]></answer>

			<question>What types of chemicals remain on the lens after using AOSEPT PLUS?</question>

			<category>Replacement Schedules</category>
			<question>Can I continue to wear my lenses if they are still comfortable after the recommended wearing period?</question>
			<answer><![CDATA[Contact lens materials vary, and lenses should not be worn for longer than the recommended wearing period. The purpose of replacing contact lenses on a frequent basis is to prevent discomfort, dryness, blurred vision or allergic reaction that can result from a build-up of protein and lipid deposits on the lenses. Check with your optician for the lenses and lens replacement frequency most appropriate for you.]]></answer>

			<category>Replacement Schedules</category>
			<question>How often should I dispose of my contacts?</question>
			<answer><![CDATA[Only your optician can determine the actual replacement schedule that is right for you. Their recommendation will be based on your tear chemistry, health of the eye, daily activities, and the type of lens chosen for you. The recommended life of contact lenses varies depending on the type of lenses, from 1-day, 1-week, 2-weeks, 1-month, or longer. With any contact lenses, you should follow the prescribed wear and care instructions, including guidelines for replacement.]]></answer>

			<category>Replacement Schedules</category>
			<question>My optician recommended a different wearing schedule for my Focus Monthly contact lenses than stated on the box. Which is correct?</question>
			<answer><![CDATA[It is customary for a manufacturer to include a recommended replacement schedule for its products in the product package inserts, fitting guide booklets and in some cases on the packaging itself. Such recommendations provide a reference point for those opticians who are looking for such information. Programmed replacement or regular, scheduled replacement of contact lenses promotes a healthier approach to contact lens wear. Replacing lenses on a frequent basis helps to reduce the accumulation of lens deposits and the resulting complications that can occur. CIBA VISION supports and recommends frequent replacement of contact lenses. Because each patient's eyes are different, only your optician can determine the appropriate lens replacement schedule for you. Although CIBA VISION includes a baseline recommendation for scheduled monthly replacement for Focus lenses, your optician may recommend a replacement schedule greater or lesser than one month based upon his/her examination of your eyes, professional judgment and clinical experience with the lenses.]]></answer>

			<question>Why is it important to get regular eye exams?</question>
			<answer><![CDATA[According to the Association of Optometrists, periodic eye examinations are an important part of routine preventive health care. Many eye and vision conditions present no obvious symptoms. Therefore, individuals are often unaware that a problem exists. Early diagnosis and treatment are important for maintaining good vision and when possible preventing permanent vision loss. A thorough eye examination yields far more information than you might expect. Not only does it provide your optician with information to diagnose and treat eye conditions, a look into your eyes also provides an open window on your general health. For information on how often you should have your eyes examined, visit the Association of Optometrists website at www.assoc-optometrists.org. ]]></answer>

			<question>What is Astigmatism?</question>
			<answer><![CDATA[Astigmatism is a common vision condition. It's caused when the front surface of the eye, called the cornea, is not perfectly round. Instead of having equal curvatures like a football, it has several different curvatures like a rugby ball. As a result, light is focused differently in the eye, leading to blurred vision. If you have astigmatism and thought you couldn't wear soft contact lenses, now you can! AIR OPTIX for Astigmatism, Focus DAILIES TORIC and Focus Toric lenses are made especially for people with astigmatism. ]]></answer>

			<question>Is it OK to play sports while wearing contact lenses?</question>
			<answer><![CDATA[Wearing soft contact lenses for sports provides a more flexible and stable form of visual correction than spectacles. Contacts do not fog up and do not slide down your nose. Contacts contribute to optimal sports performance, providing better peripheral vision than glasses to help give you better sports results! Additionally, contacts may be worn with regular sunglasses. For extra protection, sunglasses may be worn along with a UV-blocking contact lens such as Precision UV. A fresh pair of lenses can be inserted following sports activities, where sweat and debris may have accumulated on the old lenses. ]]></answer>

			<question>Can I swim in my contact lenses?</question>

It is not recommended that contact lenses be worn while swimming without goggles, since contact lenses are porous and can absorb chemicals or impurities in the water.

There are several things you can do, however, to help make contact lens wearing more comfortable, including wearing a daily disposable lens like our DAILIES AquaComfort PLUS, and enjoying the benefits and fresh feel of a new lens everyday. For contact lenses that are worn for more than one day, using a preservative-free disinfectant, such as AOSEPT PLUS and thoroughly and frequently cleaning your lenses may help reduce your discomfort.

			<question>Can lenses get lost behind my eyes?</question>
			<answer><![CDATA[No. A thin - but strong - membrane, called the conjunctiva, lines the inside of your eyelids and curls back on itself to cover the white part of the eye. Lenses cannot pass through it. Your contact lenses, however, may slide under your eyelids or become displaced. If this occurs, try looking in the direction of the lens to get it to move back to the correct position. If you wear soft contact lenses, they will tend to centre automatically on the cornea.]]></answer>
