Johnson & Johnson Vision Care in Japan has received the “Good Design Award 2012” from the Japan Institute of Design Promotion for the proprietary lens design ‘ASD’ (Accelerated Stabilisation Design) built into its disposable contact lens Acuvue for Astigmatism brand of products.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column]
This is the first time for a soft contact lens product design to be awarded the Good Design Award.
In its comments, the review board noted: “Because ASD is not influenced by a person’s head position, the products with ASD were ranked highly for creating new possibilities for those who have astigmatism to use contact lenses”.
