SpecialEyes 59 and 49 soft contact lenses are hemispherical shells available in spherical or toric lens designs and in. hioxifilcon A and hioxifilcon B materials.The lenses are fabricated by lathe cutting hioxifilcon A and hioxifilcon B materials both non-ionic copolymers of 2hydroxeyethylmethacrylate (2-HEMA) and Glycerol Methacrylate (GMA). The water content by weight is 49% for hioxifilcon B and 59% for hioxifilcon A. when immersed in normal saline. In the hydrated state, the lens conforms to the curvature of the eye covering the cornea and extending slightly beyond the limbus forming a transparent optical surface.
