contact lenses caring?
Which would you say is the best for your eyes and for your contact lenses? I use ReNu.
Could people living in Greece please answer, because there are certain products in here in Greece. Thank you

I've always used Optifree...Renu burns my eyes.
They used to make a system called AOSept (I believe it was CibaVision that made it) that was really good, and the Miraflow they made was GREAT for cleaning all the mucus and debris from the lenses. It was a little more involved than the regular multi-purpose stuff, but it didn't have the preservatives that the multi-purpose solutions have these days, so if you have really sensitive eyes, it won't irritate them. It also kept the lenses from getting clouded up and you were able to keep your daily wear lenses longer because they stayed cleaner and healthier for longer. My office hasn't been able to get AOSept for a long time. I've not even really seen it in the stores. Everyone wants something QUICK, even if its not better for your lenses OR your eyes. If you ever see the AOSept brand stuff anywhere...that's the best stuff ever! But, if you NEED to get a Multi-Purpose solution, Optifree Replenish is good too...

I like ReNu too, but Complete Moisture Plus is good also.
Sorry, not from Greece.
You know, many people don't clean their contacts before putting them in the case; i have done this myself and i noticed a BIG difference if you clean them (i always rub my contacts; doctor advises it also) first and put them in a Clean case.
My eyes don't burn if this is done.
I've heard some scary things that people do and don't do with contacts.

This is something that you may have to get with your eye care practicioner with and work with because I first started using Boston. I have keteraconus and wear hard contacts and have to be care with what I use. My eyes dry out a lot so I went back to my doctor and she put me on UNIQUE PH. I loved this. This past Christmas, ALL of the Wal marts here were out of Unique Ph and they are the only places that sell that brand and target but they were out too. My last resort was going to my eye practicioner and she was out as well. I asked her is there any other product that I can use (becuase I can't just decide to change) I have to put it past my dr. She told me that she had another product that most patients told her they absolutely loved. She asked me if I experienced dryness a lot and I told her yep and I got allergies, she put me on CLEAR CARE. I love it. I can wear my contacts a little longer with out them drying out as much. She told me that I would have to rinse it with Aquify. So you may have to speak with your dr about it.

I like Opti-Free Replenish the best.

I use aquify. my opthamologist gave it to me when I first got my contacts. I like it, but every pair of eyes are different in sensitivity, so it's whatever you feel comfortable with.
