Understanding weekly replacement lenses
Weekly-replacement lenses are a less common modality that some manufacturers offer for particular wear patterns. As with any reusable lens, the replacement schedule (how often the lens is discarded) is separate from the wear schedule (whether it may be worn overnight), and on-time replacement plus correct disinfection are essential to safe wear.
The table above lists available weekly options with their materials, oxygen performance, base curves and powers.
How does weekly compare to daily or monthly?
It sits between the two on cost and deposit exposure. The best modality depends on the patient's wearing pattern, hygiene habits and required parameters. See replacement schedules compared.
Does the replacement interval affect overnight wear?
No. Only lenses specifically approved for extended wear may be slept in, regardless of their replacement schedule.
