Ciba Vision Air Optix Aqua: Dramatic deterioration 'Stay away!

I take countless years Air Optix lenses from Ciba Vision and was
yet always highly satisfied with the quality and the comfort.
The last purchase early 2015. This changed, however, abruptly.
Now scrape extreme, therefore the lenses are impossible to bear.
2 Previously couple tried 'always the same.
The dimensional stability of the lens is also much lower also as before,
suggesting a material change.

So I can only agree with the previous speakers so (Younger recessions)!

My clear recommendation: In its current form, these lenses are of no use!

So, here's a little update on my posting .:

As the feedback have described my experiences here also to the lenses' manufacturer
(More specifically, the Austrian subsidiary) with a request for an opinion forwarded.
As my reference company (have the lenses purchased from the company Linsen.at) based in the Czech
Republic, the concern of the local branch to clarify (or possible replacement) will be forwarded.
In a telephone conversation with the Austrian branch I have nevertheless asked if concrete
a.) It is in my lenses delivered to plagiarism (fake) is
b It has been a product change.).

The following information I have received and I want to make the common available .:
For a.) The two (the photo sent along apparent) batch numbers (two numbers because different
Lens thickness) were tested in your complaint system with the result that this also
were actually produced.
=> The 'authenticity' of products were to me thus confirmed => no fault by the seller.
To b) From a product change (eg. Material, quality etc.) of the lady was not aware :-))))))))

Due to the many negative recessions that can be read in recent times here and
but longer period of time, I am personally quite sure that this is not just about faulty one
Charge is, but here is a general conversion is carried out with the result of poorer quality.

Whether this merger from the 'old' manufacturer Ciba Vision has played a role with Alcon,
Of course I can not judge.

Note:
Regarding lenses - alternatives I can not make any statements, because I did not make
Deadline for adapting alternative lenses (Ciba Vision and Alcon I will with absolute certainty
no longer take) the optician had.

Status report of 17.06.2015:
My quality complaint was forwarded yes As reported by the Austrian Representation in the Czech Ciba Vision.
To date I have heard nothing more - The respective lenses (10) of Air Optix are now hiked unopened in the residual waste.
I'm sure my eyes will thank me.

Meanwhile, I have let myself from my confidence optician (Fell ***) new monthly lenses the company adapt CooperVision / type Biofinity.
Bin with this now after 2 months trial basis (strength was still slightly corrected) absolutely satisfied.
The comfort of Biofinity is actually identical to the comfort of the OLD Air Optix lenses (not the current for about 1-2 years at least partially delivered quality).
Only the slightly lighter compared / transparent color of the lens material is a little habit need when cleaning / handling,
since the lens is harder to find in the cleaning tank. Once in the eye, however, is completely irrelevant.

The retail price is approximately 25EUR (regular price) per 6-pack for a shop with appropriate service in my view, perfectly in order.

The price difference for online purchase (from 20 EUR incl. Shipping) is absolutely acceptable for me.
In addition, I have the certainty that is traded or exchanged in case of problems or quality deficiencies and I did not (as in my particular case)
can simply throw the non-portable lenses worth about 40 EUR in the garbage because the manufacturer support the dispatch of the Czech Republic, Poland etc. not responding.
(Although often .de domain are used, ship most online lens retailers from these countries or have their company headquarters there in accordance with Conditions)
