Default Relationship Between Water Content and Oxygen Permeability
I read that 1-Day Acuvue contacts have a high oxygen permeability because they also have a high water content. I didn't realize the two were connected. Does it always follow that the more water in the contact lens, the better the oxygen permeability, or is it--like most things in life--more complicated than that?
