Cruelty-Free Contact Lens Solution 12oz - Multi Purpose Contact Solution & Contact Lens Cleaner – Eye Contact Solution & Sterile Isotonic Contact Lenses Solution by Clear Conscience
The pros of this solution are numerous. Contacts come out squeaky clean, with the vegan formula effectively removing protein and debris. This also doubles as a crystal clear solution that removes cloudy films and deposits, providing you the most optimum eye solution experience. It provides all-day comfort, with each bottle containing lubricant to prevent dry eyes. This makes it perfect for both daily use and travel, ensuring that your eyes stay refreshed no matter the circumstance. Also, it’s a truly multipurpose contact solution, working perfectly as both a soft and a gas permeable contact lens solution. Above all, it’s a vegan contact solution. It utilizes 100% vegan ingredients and is cruelty-free. Furthermore, 10% of proceeds are donated to animal welfare organizations.
On the other hand, the cons of this product may lie in the precautions. It is advised that you should never reuse this solution and discard the content of the bottle 3 months after opening. Please note that this solution is not suitable for use with heat disinfection. If you have allergies to any ingredient used in this product, do not use it. The product is also not suitable for individuals with extremely sensitive eyes as it’s a complete lens solution designed to accommodate a certain level of sensitivity, only using premium ingredients. Lastly, certain users may find the three-month shelf life after opening a bit short, especially if they don’t wear contacts daily.
Biotrue Hydration Plus Contact Lens Solution, Multi-Purpose Solution for Soft Contact Lenses, Lens Case Included, 10 FL OZ
Pros:
The Biotrue Hydration Plus Multi-Purpose Solution boasts several commendable advantages. Produced by Bausch + Lomb, renowned for their trusted eye care solutions, this product brings superior cleaning and disinfection for your contact lenses. It’s effective in removing dirt and protein build-up, contributing to clean, crystal-clear lenses. The solution is designed with naturally inspired ingredients to replicate the biology of your eye. It contains 25% more hyaluronan—a natural moisturizer found in tears, an antioxidant to safeguard against free radicals, and potassium—another electrolyte naturally found in tears. Also, it precisely matches the pH of healthy tears to ensure comfort when you insert your lenses. With an excellent moisture retention capacity, this contact lens solution maintains hydration for up to 20 hours, keeping your lenses comfortable, and even more so now since it has been enhanced to retain even more moisture on your lenses for 12 hours.
Cons:
Despite the many pros, no product is without its downsides. While the Biotrue Hydration Plus Multi-Purpose Solution offers exceptional hydration, that comes only in comparison with the Bausch + Lomb’s Biotrue Multi-Purpose Solution, based on laboratory studies. Likewise, other independent studies comparing it with solutions from different brands are lacking. Furthermore, the claim of the product containing 25% more hyaluronan and being the only solution with an antioxidant and potassium may be misleading without a proper comparative context. Other details like whether it is suitable for all contact lens types are absent, and the user is left to infer from the statement that it’s designed for soft contact lenses including silicone hydrogel lenses. Additionally, the solution may not work the same way for everyone, considering individual variances in eye health and tear composition among users. It’s always wise to consult an eye care professional before switching contact lens solutions.
