This was great! Thank you! I used to buy that solution a year ago. But for some reason about a month after using it, it wouldn't matter how long I left my contacts in the case, I felt my eyes burning and watery after putting them on. Not sure why since it was normal for me to place them in there for 8hrs at a time (overnight). I did feel the contacts were more comfortable up until this started happening.
The newer version of clear care with “hydra glide” has an additional wetting agent in it. Older school H2O2 didn’t have that and in my opinion was better. Some patients don’t like the wetting agent. That is likely what you had the reaction to! Thanks for watching!
I saw a video that gave an actual example of how to do this and step by step prior to placing the contacts on there after the 6 to 8 hours. Perhaps you left out the step on how to do prior to placing in the eye.
Thank you doc! ✨I’m so devastated. I mistakenly used it as a multipurpose solution and was screaming to the top of my lungs because of the burning in my eye. I know better now 🙏🏾
I just did it too. Never used clear care before and just thought it was like my other multi purpose. Never even knew this could happen and now it burned my eye. I thought I could use a drop in it to lubricate as it was dry coming out the case. Omg the pain was unreal I thought my eye melted and I couldtn even open it to get the lens out for a few mins it's like a day now and still red 😓. My own fault for not reading and just assuming it was like other stuff I used
I literally just did that today i just started wearing contacts a week ago and borrowed someone’s “solution” …. Left them in the case overnight and put them in and thought i was gonna be blind. Screamed from the burning.
This video was so helpful! I've been using AO Sept (Clear Care in the US) for many years now and I feel a huge difference using this compared with MPDS systems like Bausch and Lomb BioTrue. Unfortunately I had a nasty allergy to BioTrue which ripped a few tiny holes in the front of both corneas. I thought it was normal for contact lenses to sting a lot and remain like that for a bit while using contacts. Since the switch to AO Sept hydrogen peroxide, I realised its far from normal for eyes to be irritated like this. I've not had any issues since the swap and it's helped me stay very compliant with lens wear now to stick to around 8-10hrs of wear over 5 days. My eyes are so much more comfortable. If you do splash any un-neutralised hydrogen peroxide in the eye, then its a pain you will NEVER ever forget! I should also mention, once the bottle is used up throw away the lens case and use a fresh new case with new solution everytime as that platinum catalyst disc will not be anywhere near as good next time and its more sanitary.
This was a great video answering all my questions ? on what how and when. What & how to do and how to place on there after process done ready to wear. TY very very much.
Hi Dr. D nice to meet you! I just found your videos I have a question. If I get a lot of deposit on my contacts would I rather use the CLEAR CARE (hydraglyde) or the CLEAR CARE ( triple action cleaning)?
Hi I have a question. I was just placed on monthly lenses ( air optix Alcon) I know it might sound dumb but can I still use that product for colored ones ?
Could you do a video of after they have been cleaned? No one seems to be addressing that. What steps do you take to put them in your eye after cleaning.
You can’t use this midday, it needs to sit for atleast 6 hours for the hydrogen peroxide to neutralise when it reacts with the disc at the bottom of the contacts holder
On a bottle of clear care it states that neutralized solution shouldn't be reused, yet I've had the habit rubbing my contacts using that solution to broke up deposits before placing them in their respective baskets for cleaning using H2O2. Is this bad practice in that I'm breaking up deposits with saline with deposits in it from the night before?
So informative, thank you v much. We don't have a wide variety where I'm from so I buy what I can overseas. First time I've seen HP mentioned on a bottle so I decided to search up on it. I'm a bit hesitant as I've been using MP for nearly a decade and haven't had massive issues but then you mentioned the end-of-cycle dryness irritation. That's exactly what I have! My monthlies are 3 weeklies and I chalked it up to dry desert weather differences. I have a twin pack of Clear Care (no hydraglide!) and a CVS branded one that I'm excited to use thanks to your video. You mentioned the possibility of using HP once a week- does that mean I can alternate MP and HP cleaners by day? Alternatively lets say I decide to use it daily after setting for 6+ hours. When taking the lenses out of the HP, can I rinse it with MP? What's the average age for the "neutralizing" piece? I have two 12oz bottles but one lenses case.
Yes, once the solution has neutralized, the resulting solution is saline and safe to use. I wouldn't go over 10-12 hours, I would transfer to a MPDS like Biotrue or Puremoist for longer term storage.
Awesome video! It would be cool to have you as my optometrist.. my eye doctor gave me that solution on my last visit, and I had no idea it had hydrogen peroxide..
What most of us do is buy the kit, and then just make your own solution at home. Take a granule of baking soda, mix it with your saline solution, and use the case.
Someone accidently typed my case and I woke up to no liquid inside. I replaced the water. Bubbles stopped almost immediately. Does that mean it's now neutralized or do I still have to wait 6 hrs?
How often do you need to change the solution? vs a multi-purpose solution? I don't wear contacts daily, so do I need to change the solution every day even if I don't wear my lenses that day?
I have some patients who use this every night and some patients only use it a few times per week, so it depends. You can always ask your eye doctor what they think would be the best schedule for your eyes
I hear a lot that If the contact lens is stored for along time and eventually expired that it's not the lens itself but actually the saline which the contact lens came in is the one has expired, is that scientifically true?
That’s a good question because if it’s the saline then could they be cleaned with clean solution and be used? That would be the question. maybe they can still be used after thorough cleaning. Also I think rinsing lenses after them being put on the contact case is abused to gain more money why you ask? Because it’s sus to me how at first the makers of contact solutions first said there was no need to rinse or rub contacts that the solution itself would do the cleaning but then after came out saying you had to rub and rinse and I saw one of their commercials on how to rinse contact lenses and they used almost half the bottle to rinse now that would cause people to buy solution way more often then if we didn’t rinse also I think we should rinse but not use tons of solution for rinsing that’s insane since they are not cheap either I think the company thought if they came out saying to rinse a lot the solution will finish faster and they would make more money.
I woke up 330 am for work and grabbed an old contact lens case that had the poroxide in it and not a metal one. Put it in my left eye and felt pain immediately. Then like a retard grabbed the red capped bottle to rinse out after I dug out the lens and fell to the ground in pain. I then right away rinsed with water for about 30 mins straight. 24 hrs later still in pain. Any advice besides going to doc
oof. it hurts but usually will go away. lots of rinsing, TLC with artificial tears and no CL's until resolved. See a doc if it isn't getting better on its own.
I just tried using this for the first time today. My contacts have been in for almost 6 hours. I just checked and the solution is almost gone. Is that supposed to happen? Will my contacts dry out?
Dr., what if I am using a 3percent food grade oxygen peroxide ? Would I be ok with just using the regular contact cases and use this hydrogen peroxide for daily clean as if I were using a regular contact solution or do I have to get that “cage” contact case with the neutralizer. I am just thinking that the food grade hydrogen peroxide will not have the fillers that the regular HP does 😬
I would advise against using this. I always soak more than 6 hours and after few years I develop dry eyes, and my case is not unique. Now I can no longer use contact lens
@@SamanthaMidgleyIsANerd Happened to me thir morning went to school and ppl think I have a pink eye LMAO. but when you wake up do you take off the lenses off that case and put them directly to your eye or do you have to do something before inserting

Thank you doc! ✨I’m so devastated. I mistakenly used it as a multipurpose solution and was screaming to the top of my lungs because of the burning in my eye. I know better now 🙏🏾
I once put it in thinking it would be good for eye drops lol
I just did it too. Never used clear care before and just thought it was like my other multi purpose. Never even knew this could happen and now it burned my eye.

I use clear care with my hard lenses! Just found out it works with them. It’s as awesome as it was with my soft lenses. Never going back!

Hydrogen peroxide sterilizes, and breakdown into oxygen which also sterilizes.
The "platinum" catalyst is pretty much eternal.
Love the humor! Making science and learning FUN!
Glad you enjoyed it! 😍
Thanks for your video! I'm a contact lens newbie and hope to use my Clear and Care Plus daily for my monthlies.
This was a great video answering all my questions ? on what how and when.
What & how to do and how to place on there after process done ready to wear. TY very very much.
Thank you Dr. D, you are fun to watch! I found myself laughing and learning at the same time! :-)
Hi Dr. D nice to meet you! I just found your videos I have a question. If I get a lot of deposit on my contacts would I rather use the CLEAR CARE (hydraglyde) or the CLEAR CARE ( triple action cleaning)?
Is it possible that I have problems with clear care PLUS ? Clear care is ok but not PLUS
Hi I have a question. I was just placed on monthly lenses ( air optix Alcon) I know it might sound dumb but can I still use that product for colored ones ?
Love your video!
Fantastic review and helpful, thank you
Could you do a video of after they have been cleaned? No one seems to be addressing that. What steps do you take to put them in your eye after cleaning.
You just have to wait 6 hours for the solution to neutralize- once that elapses I put them directly in my eye with no extra steps.
I’m new to sclerals for keratoconus, will picking the right kind of cleaning help with midday fog? Is there anything else I can use?
You can’t use this midday, it needs to sit for atleast 6 hours for the hydrogen peroxide to neutralise when it reacts with the disc at the bottom of the contacts holder
@@alanbirsingh7163i think they are asking if it will keep them clear longer threw the day.
Great info🤙 Thx

I was 16 and used that stuff to rinse my contact off just before inserting and oh buddy 🔥👁
Oh buddy indeed! 🔥 v. spicy 🌶

What's the average age for the "neutralizing" piece? I have two 12oz bottles but one lenses case.
Can contacts be stored in this solution?... How long?
So when the contacts have been neutralized after 6hrs minimum, you can put it in your eye? What if it was after 10hrs? Would it be safe?
Yes, once the solution has neutralized, the resulting solution is saline and safe to use. I wouldn't go over 10-12 hours, I would transfer to a MPDS like Biotrue or Puremoist for longer term storage.
Awesome video! It would be cool to have you as my optometrist.. my eye doctor gave me that solution on my last visit, and I had no idea it had hydrogen peroxide..
Does regular hydrogen peroxide work and if so will it neutralize in a plastic case overnight like the one you talk about here?
What most of us do is buy the kit, and then just make your own solution at home. Take a granule of baking soda, mix it with your saline solution, and use the case.
After at least 6 hours of following all steps. Can I wear it immediately without using anything else???
Someone accidently typed my case and I woke up to no liquid inside. I replaced the water. Bubbles stopped almost immediately. Does that mean it's now neutralized or do I still have to wait 6 hrs?
Why it was overflowing with bubbles when I was using it?
After soaking for 6 hours ..should i rains with saline solution to make sure there no clear care left on the lenses
Yes you can if you want
How often do you need to change the solution? vs a multi-purpose solution?
I don't wear contacts daily, so do I need to change the solution every day even if I don't wear my lenses that day?
All contact lens solutions (MPDS and H2O2) should be changed out daily, regardless of whether or not the contacts have been worn.
Then why did u say one could use solution every other day or for some, even six days? PLEASE ANSWER. @EyeSchoolwithDrD
I tried this and my eyes were burning what to do next
How Often does the case need to be replaced…
How often do I clean my contact with this formula?
I have some patients who use this every night and some patients only use it a few times per week, so it depends. You can always ask your eye doctor what they think would be the best schedule for your eyes
I accidentally stored my lenses in a standard case with Clear Care & it burned my eye so bad!! I never made that mistake again 🤣🤣
I hear a lot that If the contact lens is stored for along time and eventually expired that it's not the lens itself but actually the saline which the contact lens came in is the one has expired, is that scientifically true?

So do you use a regular lens cleaner after it soaks overnight to moisten it before putting on?
you forgot to pre rinse before putting them in the case
I just tried using this for the first time today. My contacts have been in for almost 6 hours. I just checked and the solution is almost gone. Is that supposed to happen? Will my contacts dry out?
hmmm...why is it evaporating. no, it shouldn't really evaporate that much!
I thought you where supposed to rince for 5 seconds before dunking them in solution ?
Dr., what if I am using a 3percent food grade oxygen peroxide ?
Would I be ok with just using the regular contact cases and use this hydrogen peroxide for daily clean as if I were using a regular contact solution or do I have to get that “cage” contact case with the neutralizer. I am just thinking that the food grade hydrogen peroxide will not have the fillers that the regular HP does 😬
how would you neutralize the solution
You need the platinum edge to act as a catalyst or it won’t work as intended
3:16 🤣
Bio true is the best solution in 2023
I thought you were supposed to rince for 5 seconds before dunking them in solution ?
I would advise against using this. I always soak more than 6 hours and after few years I develop dry eyes, and my case is not unique. Now I can no longer use contact lens
You forgot to rinse the lenses before you placed them into the case.
Great point, thanks for adding!
