🔴⚡Eye Health QOTD: Have you tried any of these solutions? Which is your favorite?

[alyssastephanie]

I’ve been using biotrue for years, ever since it was introduced. Using it with my oasys lenses. I can wear my lenses for 12+ hours (bad, I know but I live a wild life) with no irritation or dryness. In fact I normally forget I even wear contacts.
Never knew about the rubbing regime, though. Was never mentioned by my doc & I’ve been wearing contacts for 14 years! I just throw the lenses in the case and give it a little shake. I’m the worst taking care of my contacts but today I start a new chapter! Thanks for your informative vids

Came for the solutions, stayed for the hot doctor

I got off contacts for a few years then came back to them about a year ago and started using Opti Free Pure Moist and I swear it makes a big difference. I wear my contacts between 12-16 hours every day comfortably

Very informative video, thanks! I'm a 62 year old male and in my third week of wearing contacts (that I vowed for 48 years would never happen). I had some hard lessons to learn the first four weeks (one week I didn't wear them at all), the first week was just learning how to put them in and take them out (first set), the second week was trying to adjust to them (second set) and learned one was off (prescription) a bit, the third week reverted back to glasses waiting for new set, and finally this week (third set) learning the care and maintenance of the lenses. A LOT was left out of the orientation when converting from glasses to contacts. So thank you for a great video explaining proper maintenance, brand differences, and the do's/don'ts of caring for eyes and lenses!

To be quite honest I'm surprised that I'm not already blind. I'm not rubbing my contacts at all!! My eyes burn a lot in the morning but I thought that was due to lack of sleep. Now I think I might be needing to buy a new, not expired, bottle of solution.

[angelcastellanos]

You’re great. I just started using contact lenses last week and you have been helping me a lot! Thank you so much. Greetings from Mexico.

[maryruthsanchez-benzon]

I've been using contact lens for almost 10 years now and I just found your channel. It would've helped me a lot if i saw this earlier 😂

[oquefizhoje]

biotrue its the best for me. so soft when in contact with my eyes. just perfect.

[mjjfan]

Just started using OptiFree Puremoist with my first pair of Acuvue Oasys bi-weekly lenses and I wear them over 12 hours a day. It is perfect for my eyes and very comfortable to work with. Honestly I didn't realize they came with such specific cleaning instructions! From now on I will definitely be doing that. Thank you always for your informative videos.

Hi Doctor eye care. I wore soft contacts for 15 years, then encountered chronic conjunctivitis. I opted for RK because Lasix was in its infancy. I had 20-20 vision for 4 years. Then got presbyopia leading to hyperopia. I went back to glasses, used progressive lenses. As my prescription increased, my eyes started looking huge through the lenses. I realized that contacts had come a long way in the past 18 years and decided to try them again. After 3 attempts we settled on the Cooper Torics. I was getting a lot of glare and discomfort. Then one day I realized that I should be rubbing them and rinsing them and this changed everything. Magically I could see very well. I realized that I had higher level aberration and a doctor suggested lumify. It had the effect of lowering pressure in the eyes and making pupil just a little bit smaller which cut the nighttime glare remarkably. The lenses could still get dry and uncomfortable at times, so I started doing a late afternoon cleaning, which really helped. Then I had an epiphany, how would an ultra sound cleaner work? I realized that the more I handled the lenses the more chance of irritation my eyes when putting lenses in and the shorter the lenses would last. After going through several different brands I found one that worked remarkably well. It’s available on Amazon and eBay for around $20. It looks kind of like the sensitive eyes cleaning cases but with the addition of an ultra sound motor. No more rubbing was needed. I would run the motor through three cycles. Now I don’t do any afternoon cleanings or rarely do I need to. The lenses will last as long as six weeks. When I pull them out of the case in the morning I just put them directly into my eye and they’re perfect. Thanks for the tip on the laser. The ultrasound cleaner is truly a game changer. I can keep the lenses in my eyes for extended periods with minimal glare. They’re comfortable for a much longer period. I thought all solutions were equal until trying Bausch & Lomb solutions, which so far have worked really. I will look for it and try inserting the lenses as you suggested. Thanks for all the info. Keep up the great work.

Thank you for sharing this information. I am new to contacts, 3 weeks, and have been following my husbands examples . Needless to say, he’s a bad example!! 🤣 He doesn’t rub and rinse when he takes his out ! I did last night and it’s a night and day difference!!
Thank you !!

[lizdelisle]

I use the BioTrue solution because it's comfortable with no burning and I have no dryness for the full 16 hrs.! I don't always wear them that long!

[zephaudi]

After following these tips I have improved my experience and I now love my lenses thanks doc.

[lalotime]

Biotrue works the best for comfort and dry eye. I've tried all of these. Optifree is okay. But nothing beats biotrue

[dabeage]

I am using B & L ReNu. It's fine, can't say I notice anything remarkable one way of the other. I wear Acuvue Oasys. I don't recall noticing Blink Revitalens (J & J) but I'll look for it and give it a try since that company makes the lenses I use. Excited to try the upcoming transition lenses...

[szikszai]

Well, it's very interesting to see the comments and realise how different everyone's eyes are. I tried Biotrue but I absolutely hated it. My vision was blurry and I felt like the solution didn't clean the lenses properly. I swtiched to Opti-Free Pure Moist which I love so so much. It cleans the contact lenses perfectly, and I can wear them 12 hours a day without any problem or anything.

[jillianmcallister]

I haven’t noticed a difference between any of them.
I use the multi purpose solution on a daily basis and the clear care about once a week because I feel like it’s a deeper clean

[mrooah]

dude, I used a normal case with the clear care once without thinking about it. Miserable experience, i'm lucky I was able to quickly get the contact out of my eye quickly.

[darion]

Omg I've been mistreating my eyes by not rubbing the contacts LOL.
