Using 3-month disposable contact lenses with 30-day contact lense solution?
January 24th, 2010 | by admin |Is it safe to use 3-month disposable contacts with contact solution that says only to use with 1-month disposable contacts? I would like an answer from an optometrist or any other doctors that work with the eye. I don’t want to get an infection in my eyes or go blind or anything.
I recently read the box and it says not to store the contacts for more than 30 days without rinsing and resoaking them in the solution. The contact solution is Equate Multi-Purpose Solution.
That’s right, if you are storing the same lenses without wearing them, then you should change the solution after 30 days.
That doesn’t mean it can only be used for monthly contacts.
It’s fine to use with the contacts you have…that’s what it is meant for. Any disposable lenses.
