renu Contact Lens Solution, Multi-Purpose Disinfectant, Advanced Formula Kills 99.9% of Germs, 16 Fl Oz (Pack of 2), Includes 2 Fl Oz Travel Size
Experience the latest innovation in contact lens care with Renu Advanced formula. This state-of-the-art solution offers a multi-purpose functionality that kills 99.9% of germs within only four hours ensuring your lenses are thoroughly disinfected. Made with a unique triple disinfectant system, rest assured knowing you’re employing a highly effective system to get rid of any harmful microbes. On top of rigorous cleanliness, this solution will also keep your lenses hygienically stored when they’re not in use. Plus, it offers excellent hydration to your lenses providing you with all-day comfort.
As great as it is, like almost everything else, it has some downsides worth noting. On one hand, the Renu advanced formula is wonderfully versatile, replacing both Renu Fresh & Renu Sensitive with just one solution. This could be a significant pro if you value simplicity in your lens care routine. However, if you’re particularly fond of either of those solutions or have a specific need only addressed by one of them, this might feel like a loss. Pros:
- Triples as disinfectant, daily cleaner, and storage solution
- Provides all day comfort
- Replaces the need for two other products (Renu Fresh and Renu Sensitive)
Cons:
- May not meet specific needs addressed by separately sold Renu Fresh or Renu Sensitive solutions
When purchasing bear in mind that the specific ingredient list can be found on the package. This product is proudly manufactured by Bausch & Lomb, a well-respected name in eye care.
Clear Care Cleaning & Disinfecting Solution with Lens Case, Twin Pack,12 Fl Oz (Pack of 2)
Pros of the Clear Care Cleaning and Disinfecting Solution:
- #1 doctor recommended – Trusted by medical professionals, Clear Care is the top recommended hydrogen peroxide solution in the market.
- Unique Triple Action Cleaning formula – The solution doesn’t only clean but also sterilizes your lenses, eliminating harmful germs and bacteria. This comprehensive cleaning process helps prevent eye infections and extends the lifespan of your contacts.

- Safe for all lens types – You can use this contact lens cleaner for both rigid (RGP) and soft lenses.

- Requires a specific process – The lenses must soak for 6 hours or overnight in the Clear Care solution to ensure the hydrogen peroxide is fully neutralized, any misuse might lead to eye irritation.
- One-time use only – Each dose of cleaning solution should be used once and discarded, you can’t reuse it.
- Needs a fresh batch – For every cleaning cycle, you have to discard the old solution and replace it with new one, adding to wastage.
