Acuvue is a popular brand of disposable contact lenses. They are made by Vistakon, a subsidiary of Johnson & Johnson, headquartered in Jacksonville, Florida. Acuvue, Acuvue 2, Acuvue 2 Colors, Acuvue Advance, and Acuvue Oasys are designed to be replaced every two weeks, or after 14 to 15 days worn.
It has been estimated that about 125 million people use contact lenses worldwide (2%), including 28 to 38 million in the United States and 13 million in Japan. The types of lenses used and prescribed vary markedly between countries, with rigid lenses accounting for over 20% of currently-prescribed lenses in Japan, Netherlands and Germany but less than 5% in Scandinavia.
The Japanese junior and senior high school uniform traditionally consists of a military style uniform for boys and a sailor outfit for girls. These uniforms are based on Meiji era formal military dress, themselves modelled on European-style naval uniforms. While this style of uniform is still in use, many schools have moved into more western pattern parochial school uniform styles. These uniforms consist of a white shirt, tie, blazer with school crest and dress trousers (often not of the same colour as the blazer) for boys and a white blouse, tie, blazer with school crest and tartan skirt for girls.
