I'm interested in daily lenses, though. I have an appointment next month and I'm going to look into them, based on the experiences I've read about on this post. VF is so informative!

Let me tell you, it only takes ONE TIME to mistake it for your normal saline solution. I used to always rinse my lenses in regular saline solution before putting them in in the morning *just in case* the cleaner didn't neutralize completely. Well, one morning I reached for the red-cap bottle and my eye instantly turned bloodshot. My prescription is so high that I never wear my thick glasses in public but I couldn't call into work sick that day since I was supposed to conduct interviews. Luckily the redness subsided quickly enough that I was able to pop in another lens and head out to work. After that day I made sure I put out the normal solution on the counter the night before. |

Thanks so much everyone for the great replies!!
I will look into the Clean Care triple action solution (though it sounds a little scary) and the rewetting drops too. I truly don't think there is a protein remover with ingredients like supra clens but I can research. The daily disposables are probably going to be my next step. I'm sure my eye dr mentioned them but since I was doing fine with the monthly disposables we decided if it ain't broke don't fix it. But then they discontinued the supra clens. Agh. I just went in March so I have awhile before I go back so I'll look into these other solutions in the meantime. I have been wearing my glasses more since the covid lockdown but I still use my contact lenses a few times a week. Thanks again everyone! Such great information as always here! |

you can ask your doctor for free solution samples too - they get a lot of those that you can try before you buy.

I am relatively sure this is the replacement product: https://www.amazon.com/Boston-Enzyma...754659394&th=1. It is manufactured by Bausch & Lomb.
Also, one of the Wal-Marts near me might have some stock of the discontinued protein remover. I can check tomorrow if you’d like.

ETA: But Walmart probably also carries the Clear Care. I think it's pretty readily available.
