Research shows soft contact lenses, such as ALTIUS, can withstand a minimum of 5 times the force required to create a corneal injury, which is common in sports such as basketball and water polo.  In addition, research shows ALTIUS Contact Lenses increase visual clarity, contrast and quickness.  These are the building blocks for such visual skills as depth perception, anticipation timing, and eye-hand, eye-foot and eye-body coordination, which are critical to most human performance, including collision avoidance.  Further research is needed.
