    I know Acuvue Oasys lets the eyes have lots of oxygen, but how much oxygen
    does Acuvue 1-day moist let the eyes have, in comparison.

    Where do you get the numbers from, also, so I can find out on my own later.

    Oasys has more than five times the oxygen throughput.

    Which isn't terribly important, since the whole point of the 1-day variety is
    that you wear them for part of a day, then throw them away.
