Vistakon Company Profile
Vistakon has what it takes to make your baby blues see clearly -- and maybe even to change them to emerald green. A division of Johnson & Johnson subsidiary Johnson & Johnson Vision Care, Vistakon makes a variety of disposable soft contact lenses under the ACUVUE brand. Its products include daily disposables (which are thrown out each day), flexible wear lenses that can be slept in, bifocal lenses, lenses designed to correct for astigmatism, and tinted lenses that enhance or change eye color. Many of the unit's lenses (including flagship ACUVUE Advance products) employ Vistakon's proprietary Hydraclear technology, a silicone hydrogel technology that makes the lenses more breathable.
