Patients are given crisp, irritant-free vision when wearing Choice AB contact lenses. CIBA Vision Choice AB disposable contacts are replaced with new lenses after on to two weeks of use, avoiding the buildup of pollutants that can irritate your vision and cloud your vision. Locating your Choice AB lenses in the cleaning solution is easier because of the light tint that the lenses are infused with.
