Alcon announced the September launch of Precision1 daily disposable contact lenses, which the company said were designed to provide long-lasting comfort and ease of handling.

The proprietary SmartSurface technology uses a micro-thin, high-performance layer of moisture at the lens surface to help support a stable tear film and allow for precise vision and dependable comfort throughout the day, Sean Clark, general manager of Alcon U.S. vision care, said in a company webcast.
