- there isnt one. air optix aqua is a silicone lens. there is only 1 silicone "daily"...acuvue trueye. ciba (air optix manufact) has 2 dailies: ciba dailies & ciba dailies aqua comfort plus. dont let the name fool you, just b/c it contains the word "aqua", aqua comfort plus is pretty much nothing like air optix aqua edit: Footprintz - I agree there never really is an "equivalent" in contacts. doesnt it make you laugh when someone tells you about "house brand" or "generic" contacts? i had some wal-mart employee tell me on the phone that they sold someone ultraflex b/c it was the "generic" version of the lens I Rx'd for that patient (purevision). i literally laughed out loud. uhhh yeah those 2 lenses are pretty much nothing alike.
- No clue what you mean by " equivalent "... Every brand is different , especially the daily lenses from any other type. Apples and oranges , pears and grapes, monthlies and dailies.... In contacts , there never really is an equivalent. We never know how a specific brand will work until it is tried on . EDIT : That's a good one Prince , not all that surprising when you consider the source though. I'm sure they take " dumb-down " courses to work there because they come out with things that are very strange. Like at LC.....instant brainwashing somehow to un-learn what licenced people should know.
