Alcon announced the launch of Total30 Multifocal for Astigmatism in the United States. Total30 Multifocal for Astigmatism is the world’s only multifocal toric contact lens with water gradient technology that helps patients stay in lenses comfortably as their vision changes from standard correction to age-related presbyopia, according to an Alcon press release.
According to Alcon, the lenses provide excellent end-of-day comfort, with wearers rating nearly 8/10 even on day 30, providing patients clear, seamless, and stable vision at all distances, near through far.
Alcon claims that Total30 Multifocal for Astigmatism contact lenses combine unique lens material and optical designs to provide astigmatic presbyopes with the following benefits:
-
Water Gradient Material: Featuring nearly 100% water at the surface.
-
Precision Profile: An optical design for presbyopia correction.
-
Precision Balance 8|4: Delivering the on-eye stability for patients with astigmatism need for consistent, stable vision.
-
Celligent Technology: The biomimetic contact lens surface helps resist bacteria and lipid deposits for a clean lens.
-
UV Blocking and Blue-Violet Light Filtering: Total30 is the only monthly replacement contact lens family providing ultraviolet blocking and blue-violet light filtration.
According to Alcon, in clinical assessments, patients wearing Total30Multifocal for Astigmatism reported clear 20/20 vision, offering seamless vision at all distances for early, moderate, and advanced presbyopia. Most notably, eyecare professionals (ECPs) also rated ease of fit 9/10 and the broad range of diopters accommodates nearly 90% of astigmatic presbyopes. Additionally, the Precision Profile and Precision Balance 8|4 innovations made meaningful contributions to the reported 97% success rate for first-lens fit.
Total30 Multifocal for Astigmatism is now available in the US and will soon be launched in limited international markets in 2026, the company said. OM
