USEFUL INFORMATION Lubricating or re-wetting drops are helpful if you sleep in your contact lenses, or your job requires a lot of close vdu work. These eyedrops can be used with your contact lenses in your eyes. Look for brands that indicate they can be used with contact lenses. All in one solutions are cleaning, rinsing and disinfecting all in one. These are ideal for use with disposable contacts or planned replacement contacts. They can also be used with soft daily and extended wear, but you will probably have to replace your lenses more often. Hydrogen Peroxide Systems are best used with soft lenses that are not going to be replaced frequently. Consult your eye doctor for the brand that is best for the type of soft contact lens you wear. It is best not to mix and match contact lens solutions, especially when chemical disinfection is required. If you see a brand you would like to try, call your eye doctor's office and find out how you should switch. Many contact lens wearers can have an allergic reaction to some of the preservatives and chemicals used in the solutions. If you have any symptoms like itching, burning or redness you should discontinue use and contact your eye doctor's office. Preservative free solutions are available for those with sensitive eyes. |
