Type of Cleaning Lens Product
1) Saline solution
- is for rinsing and storing contact lenses, when you're
using a heat or UV disinfection system. You also may need
it for use with enzymatic cleaning tablets or
cleaning/disinfecting devices. Never use saline products
for cleaning and disinfection.
2) Daily cleaner
- is for cleaning your contact lenses. You place a few
drops in the palm of your hand and carefully rub the lens
for as long as directed, usually around 15 seconds,
making sure to clean both sides. Use other products for
rinsing and disinfection.
3) Multipurpose solution
- is for rinsing, cleaning, disinfecting and storing your
contact lenses. Clean your lenses as you would with daily
cleaner, then rinse (as long as directed) and disinfect,
all with the same solution; or rinse the lenses twice,
then place them in the clean lens case with solution to
clean and disinfect. When you are ready to wear the
lenses, rinse them again. With multipurpose solutions, no
other lens care products are necessary.
