At Angel Eyes, we provide a complete range of contact lenses from budget to premium segments with prices from 40,000₫ to 300,000₫. This review details each lens type based on customer experiences and feedback regarding comfort, wear duration, pricing, and overall user experience.

Overview of Contact Lens Types at Angel Eyes

Angel Eyes offers 4 main contact lens categories, each serving different needs and budgets for lens wearers.

Daily Disposable Contact Lenses

These are single-use lenses worn during the day then discarded, requiring no cleaning or storage. Suitable for occasional wearers, beginners, or those prioritizing maximum convenience. Prices range from 40,000₫ to 80,000₫ per pair.

Polyhema Contact Lenses (6-8 hours)

Monthly lenses made from Polyhema material (HEMA polymer) with 38-42% water content and recommended 6-8 hours daily wear time. This is Vietnam's most popular lens type priced from 115,000₫ to 260,000₫ per pair for 1-month use.

MPC High-Moisture Contact Lenses (12 hours)

Monthly lenses incorporating MPC (2-Methacryloyloxyethyl Phosphorylcholine) technology that creates a moisture-retaining film on the lens surface, allowing comfortable wear up to 12 hours. Suitable for office workers and heavy computer users.

Silicone Hydrogel Contact Lenses (24 hours)

The most premium lens type with Silicone Hydrogel material offering 5-7 times higher oxygen transmission than Polyhema, allowing continuous wear for 14-24 hours. Priced from 150,000₫ to 300,000₫ per pair.

Additionally, each lens category includes clear versions for vision correction and colored versions for both corrective and cosmetic purposes.

Daily Disposable Contact Lens Review

Daily disposable contact lenses are the most convenient option among lens types, suitable for various user groups.

Key Advantages

Absolute convenience is the greatest benefit of daily lenses. No need to carry lens solution, storage cases, or care accessories. When traveling, on short business trips, or during outdoor activities, daily lenses save luggage space and time. After use, simply discard the lenses.

Always fresh daily - each wear provides a completely new pair, ensuring optimal comfort and clarity. No issues with warping, scratching, or quality loss like monthly lenses after extended use.

Suitable for active lifestyles, frequent sports participation, or outdoor activities. Especially convenient for swimming, gym workouts, or activities where lens storage isn't ideal.

Notable Disadvantages

High cost is the biggest barrier. At 40,000-80,000₫ per pair, daily wear costs 1,200,000-2,400,000₫ monthly - 5-10 times more than monthly lenses. This expense isn't sustainable long-term for everyone.

Limited color selection and prescription range compared to monthly lenses. Daily lenses typically focus on clear corrective lenses with fewer perse colored options.

Suitable Users

Daily lenses are ideal for occasional wearers (2-3 times weekly), beginners wanting to adapt gradually, people with comfortable budgets prioritizing convenience, and frequent travelers or business professionals.

At Angel Eyes, daily lenses cost 40,000₫ to 80,000₫ per pair. Wearing 3 times weekly costs only 480,000-960,000₫ monthly - reasonable for optimal convenience.

Polyhema Contact Lens Review

Polyhema contact lenses are Vietnam's most popular lens type with the best price-to-performance ratio among lens options.

Key Advantages

Most affordable pricing among all contact lens types. At 115,000-260,000₫ for monthly lenses, daily cost is only 3,833-8,667₫, saving 5-10 times compared to daily lenses. Even including solution costs (55,000-130,000₫ monthly), total expenses remain around 170,000-390,000₫ monthly.

Diverse colors and designs are Polyhema's strength. Angel Eyes offers dozens of lens colors from natural (brown, gray, choco) to vibrant (blue, red, purple), from subtle diameter enlargement to dramatic circle lenses. Suitable for both daily wear and special events, cosplay.

Suitable for daily wear with 6-8 hours duration - sufficient for a workday, school, or normal activities. Water content of 38-42% ensures adequate softness and comfort.

Notable Disadvantages

Limited 6-8 hour wear time. Wearing beyond this duration may cause dryness, blurred vision, and discomfort. Not suitable for those needing 10-12 hour continuous lens wear like overtime office workers.

Prone to dry eyes after 4-5 hours wear, especially in air-conditioned environments, heavy computer use, or dry weather. You'll need rewetting drops 2-3 times daily to maintain moisture.

Requires daily cleaning and careful storage. You must wash lenses nightly, soak in solution for at least 6 hours, change solution daily, and replace cases every 3 months.

Suitable Users

Polyhema lenses are ideal for students, office workers with regular hours (8am-5pm), budget-conscious inpiduals wanting daily lens wear, those who enjoy frequently changing eye colors, and people willing to dedicate time to proper lens care.

At Angel Eyes, Polyhema lenses cost 115,000₫ to 260,000₫, including both clear and colored lenses with full prescription range from 0.00 to -10.00, some lines also offering toric and hyperopia options.

MPC High-Moisture Contact Lens Review

MPC (2-Methacryloyloxyethyl Phosphorylcholine) contact lenses are upgraded monthly lenses with superior moisture retention.

Key Advantages

Superior moisture retention is MPC lenses' most distinctive feature. MPC technology creates a phospholipid membrane on the lens surface, helping lenses retain water 30-40% better than standard Polyhema. MPC lens wearers typically report "less dryness" and "greater comfort" during extended wear.

Wear time up to 12 hours without significant dryness or discomfort. This is a major improvement over standard Polyhema's 6-8 hours. Suitable for office workers frequently working overtime and people with long daily schedules.

Reduced protein and debris accumulation due to MPC lens surfaces' high anti-adhesive properties. Tear proteins adhere less to lenses, helping lenses maintain clarity longer throughout the 1-month usage cycle.

Notable Disadvantages

Price 20-30% higher than standard Polyhema, potentially reaching 180,000-300,000₫ for premium MPC lines. However, considering wear time and comfort, many users find the price difference justified.

Still improved Polyhema, so oxygen transmission doesn't reach Silicone Hydrogel levels. Though wearable for 12 hours, avoid overnight wear or extending beyond 14 hours continuously.

Fewer color options than standard Polyhema as this is a newer, more specialized product line. Some colors and prescriptions may be unavailable in MPC versions.

Suitable Users

MPC lenses are ideal for office workers working 10-12 hours daily, heavy computer users for consecutive hours, those wanting to upgrade from standard Polyhema with mid-range budgets, and frequent air-conditioned environment occupants.

Silicone Hydrogel Contact Lens Review

Silicone Hydrogel contact lenses are today's most premium lens type with superior oxygen transmission.

Key Advantages

Extremely high oxygen transmission with Dk/t from 100-175 (5-7 times higher than Polyhema). This allows 14-24 hour continuous wear while maintaining comfort.

Flexible wear time from 14-24 hours depending on product line. This is the only option for those needing round-the-clock lens wear (shift work, business trips, extended travel).

Better durability and shape stability than Polyhema. Silicone Hydrogel material is firmer, less prone to warping, tearing, or deformation. Lenses maintain good optical quality throughout the 1-month usage cycle.

Less protein accumulation due to specially treated lens surfaces with anti-adhesive technology. This helps lenses stay clean and clear even after many days of use.

Notable Disadvantages

Highest price among lens types, from 150,000₫ to 300,000₫ per pair - 1.5-2.5 times standard Polyhema.

Unfamiliar feeling initially due to material firmness exceeding Polyhema. Some describe Silicone Hydrogel lenses as "firmer" or "thicker" when first wearing, requiring 3-5 days adaptation.

More limited color selection than Polyhema as Silicone Hydrogel primarily focuses on clear corrective lenses. Colored Silicone Hydrogel lenses exist but with fewer color options.

Suitable Users

Silicone Hydrogel lenses are ideal for those needing 12-16+ hour daily lens wear, night shift workers or frequent late-night activities, jobs requiring continuous stable vision (long-distance driving), and people willing to invest in high-quality lenses.

At Angel Eyes, Silicone Hydrogel lenses cost 150,000₫ to 300,000₫. Though higher than other types, this is the best choice if you frequently need extended lens wear.

Contact Lens Comparison Table

Below is a comprehensive comparison of important specifications for the 4 main lens types at Angel Eyes.

How to Choose the Right Contact Lens Type

Selecting the right lens type depends on various personal factors. Here's detailed guidance.

Determine daily wear duration

If you need lenses for only 6-8 hours (office hours, school), standard Polyhema is optimal. If you frequently wear 10-12 hours (office with overtime), MPC lenses are worth the investment. If you need 14+ hours (night shifts, long-distance driving), Silicone Hydrogel is the suitable choice.

Consider your budget

Calculate actual monthly costs, not just initial purchase price. Daily lenses have lower per-pair costs but highest monthly expenses. Monthly lenses cost more per pair but monthly expenses remain only 170,000-430,000₫.

Evaluate usage purpose

If your main purpose is cosmetic and frequently changing eye colors, Polyhema offers the most perse colors at reasonable prices. If your purpose is vision correction prioritizing eye health, clear Silicone Hydrogel is best.

Lens care habits

If you're meticulous and willing to spend 5-10 minutes nightly washing and storing lenses properly, monthly lenses are suitable and economical. If you're busy or often forget lens cleaning, daily lenses are safer.

Frequently Asked Questions

Should I choose daily or monthly lenses?

Daily lenses are suitable if you wear only 2-3 times weekly or occasionally. Monthly lenses suit daily wearers as costs save 3-7 times. However, you must commit to proper daily lens cleaning.

Do MPC lenses really retain moisture better?

Yes, MPC technology helps lenses retain moisture 30-40% better than standard Polyhema. Customers typically report "less dryness after 6-7 hours" and "no need for frequent rewetting drops throughout the day."
