Air Optix Night and Day Aqua Continual Monthly Contact Lenses (6 lenses)
Air Optix Night and Day Aqua Contact Lenses by Alcon are designed to be worn for one month. According to the manufacturer, Alcon, these contact lenses can be used for daily wear (put them on in the morning and take them out in the evening), but they are also designed for continuous wear. That means that for up to 30 days and 29 nights, you do not have to remove the lenses at all, even while you sleep. Air Optix Night and Day Aqua Contact Lenses are exceptional for their high oxygen permeability thanks to which the cornea has sufficient supply of oxygen even when the eye is covered by the eyelid (during sleep). Contact lenses are supplied in a package of 6 lenses.
Continuous wear
However, according to the package insert, the lenses should not be worn continuously unless consulted and directed by an eye-care professional. Continuous wear is not suitable for everyone. Furthermore, it should be noted that even among eye care professionals the attitudes towards continuous contact lens wear vary considerably. Many eye care professionals do not recommend the continuous wear at all; others recommend to take contact lenses out after five days, etc..
Consult with an opthamologist
Air Optix Night and Day are undoubtedly among the highest quality contact lenses available on the market. Nevertheless, it is highly inadvisable to buy these contact lenses without professional fitting. Without a professional fitting, you risk wasting your money and experiencing discomfort because the lenses have a very small diameter (DIA = 13.8 mm) which fits a considerably smaller percentage of wearers than the more common diameters 14.0 or 14.2.

Hi Damon, Air Optix Night and day are not available for astigmatism, but there are other brands that are approved for overnight wear. Here is some information about Acuvue Oasys for astigmatism lenses, but it's important to discuss overnight wear with your optician. http://www.alensa.ie/…ism-6-lenses
Hi Tara, the Air Optix Night and Day BC comes in 2 standard measurements, and cannot be changed or special-ordered. If the BC you were prescribed is within 0.2mm of these, there should be no noticeable difference for you.
Dear Sally, we do offer Air Optix for astigmatism contact lenses, and these are approved for extended wear. Please do consult with your optician before you begin overnight wearing. You can find more information about Air Optix for astigmatism here http://www.alensa.ie/…ism-6-lenses
Hi Lauren, yes, both Air Optix Night & Day Aqua and Biofinity are approved for overnight wear. Both lenses feature an exceptionally high level of oxygen permeability to help prevent dryness. Always check with your optician before beginning an extended wear schedule.
