    I’ve been using biotrue for years, ever since it was introduced. Using it with my oasys lenses. I can wear my lenses for 12+ hours (bad, I know but I live a wild life) with no irritation or dryness. In fact I normally forget I even wear contacts.
    Never knew about the rubbing regime, though. Was never mentioned by my doc & I’ve been wearing contacts for 14 years! I just throw the lenses in the case and give it a little shake. I’m the worst taking care of my contacts but today I start a new chapter! Thanks for your informative vids

    • @DoctorEyeHealth

      So happy to help Alyssa! Glad you have found a solution that works well for you. Biotrue is a good solution. Some time ago solutions would advertise that they were a NO RUB solution...but then they found bacteria was killed faster/better when people rubbed them so they stopped advertising that. Rubbing the lenses does great at breaking up protein deposits on the lenses which will allow your lenses to feel better longer...especially toward the end of their wear cycle.

    Very informative video, thanks! I'm a 62 year old male and in my third week of wearing contacts (that I vowed for 48 years would never happen). I had some hard lessons to learn the first four weeks (one week I didn't wear them at all), the first week was just learning how to put them in and take them out (first set), the second week was trying to adjust to them (second set) and learned one was off (prescription) a bit, the third week reverted back to glasses waiting for new set, and finally this week (third set) learning the care and maintenance of the lenses. A LOT was left out of the orientation when converting from glasses to contacts. So thank you for a great video explaining proper maintenance, brand differences, and the do's/don'ts of caring for eyes and lenses!

    To be quite honest I'm surprised that I'm not already blind. I'm not rubbing my contacts at all!! My eyes burn a lot in the morning but I thought that was due to lack of sleep. Now I think I might be needing to buy a new, not expired, bottle of solution.

    Just started this video and wanted to comment right away. Thank you Dr. Allen for your time and videos, it's easy to see you are passionate about proper eyecare. I've worn contacts for 25 plus years starting around 12 years of age. My eyesight is terrible and I've struggled through the years finding the right solution (pun intended) to correct my vision without problematic issues. I have very dry eyes and after an 8-10 hour work day I simply cannot come home to comfortable eyes. My eyes dry up within seconds of blinking and there is awful discomfort. I ended up spending around $500 of on some prescription Oakley frames and lenses simply to avoid contacts when indoors at home or when I do not want to use contact lenses. I chose Xtractive ESS Transition Lenses, Plutonite thin lenses, antiscratch, UV protection, and Oakley stealth pro options. They quickly added up in cost but I figured comfort and quality have no price when it comes to eye care. My glasses arrived a couple weeks ago and they are simply awesome, spending the extra money was well worth it compared to cheap frames and lenses I've owned previously. Anyways, I just wanted to say how much I appreciate your videos and enthusiasm to help others. It has actually made me think about returning to school and becoming an Optometrist because I know how valuable our health, namely our eye care is. Not being able to see correctly or comfortably is a terrible thing, and I think it's awesome to provide a service to help others regain higher quality life and living.

    Hi Doctor eye care. I wore soft contacts for 15 years, then encountered chronic conjunctivitis. I opted for RK because Lasix was in its infancy. I had 20-20 vision for 4 years. Then got presbyopia leading to hyperopia. I went back to glasses, used progressive lenses. As my prescription increased, my eyes started looking huge through the lenses. I realized that contacts had come a long way in the past 18 years and decided to try them again. After 3 attempts we settled on the Cooper Torics. I was getting a lot of glare and discomfort. Then one day I realized that I should be rubbing them and rinsing them and this changed everything. Magically I could see very well. I realized that I had higher level aberration and a doctor suggested lumify. It had the effect of lowering pressure in the eyes and making pupil just a little bit smaller which cut the nighttime glare remarkably. The lenses could still get dry and uncomfortable at times, so I started doing a late afternoon cleaning, which really helped. Then I had an epiphany, how would an ultra sound cleaner work? I realized that the more I handled the lenses the more chance of irritation my eyes when putting lenses in and the shorter the lenses would last. After going through several different brands I found one that worked remarkably well. It’s available on Amazon and eBay for around $20. It looks kind of like the sensitive eyes cleaning cases but with the addition of an ultra sound motor. No more rubbing was needed. I would run the motor through three cycles. Now I don’t do any afternoon cleanings or rarely do I need to. The lenses will last as long as six weeks. When I pull them out of the case in the morning I just put them directly into my eye and they’re perfect. Thanks for the tip on the laser. The ultrasound cleaner is truly a game changer. I can keep the lenses in my eyes for extended periods with minimal glare. They’re comfortable for a much longer period. I thought all solutions were equal until trying Bausch & Lomb solutions, which so far have worked really. I will look for it and try inserting the lenses as you suggested. Thanks for all the info. Keep up the great work.

    Well, it's very interesting to see the comments and realise how different everyone's eyes are. I tried Biotrue but I absolutely hated it. My vision was blurry and I felt like the solution didn't clean the lenses properly. I swtiched to Opti-Free Pure Moist which I love so so much. It cleans the contact lenses perfectly, and I can wear them 12 hours a day without any problem or anything.

    I had a bad case of pink eye that lasted upwards to 2 months. That was sure a learning experience how serious it is to confidently know I cleaned my contacts properly before considering putting them in.

    I clean with the peroxide ( CostCo stuff ). I use 2-4 "sets" at the same time! I rotate the lens all of the time. Take one set out and use the next in line. All of the soak time is over one day! Many times I re-wash containers that traveled in the case all day. I can use the same lens "set" all day, and re-use for weeks. They stay nice and I forget they are in my eyes. Nice to have a ready fresh set for a "binge watch" session. For a long talk or session, I swap fresh lens for best feel and sight.

    The two that work best for me both Alcon's Opti-Free puremoist with HydraGlyde and the Clear Care Plus with HydraGlyde.
    I switch off between the two, depending on my schedule and if I feel like rubbing them or not lol.
    That being said, I also wear Alcon Air Optix Aqua Night & Day contact lenses. Best contacts/solution(s) combination for my eyes period. I even went back from daily lenses to the Air Optix Aqua Night & Day monthly lenses because they're that much better for me.

    My mom had a nasty eye infection that left her with a 3 day hospital stay and some vision loss. The infection was traced down to a dog who she helped treat in a vet clinic with a Pseudomonas ear infection. The dog shook its head when ear drops were applied and that's where the infection occurred. She then flew out to visit her brother and experienced irritation in her eye and visited a doctor. The doctor prescribed antibiotic eye drops and sent her back. Within the same day, she was back in the emergency room with extreme eye pain and discharge. The doctor commented that she should have used the eye drops, which she had been using more than religiously. She ended up with an antibiotic resistant Pseudomonas eye infection which left her with more permanent vision loss (she had been kicked by a horse in the face earlier in life, which had left her with less than perfect vision). I just got an infection with my contacts (which I abuse and wear much, much longer than I am supposed to) and was worried by her story. In addition, the Doc found an ulcer that had just sloughed off. Luckily, the antibiotic eye drops I was prescribed seem to be doing the trick and killing off the bacteria in my eye. I think I'm going to obey the instructions on the lenses from here forward to avoid having the vision my mother has. Thank goodness for small town eye docs knowing their stuff!!!

    Yes way back when they used to make Solutions with thimerosal i was experiencing dryness and pain and bloodahot eyes and the technition was telling me that i probably was not taking care of my very expensive 300 dollar toric lenses and one night i felt like a needle was stuck in my eye and i went to the emergancy room and the doctor told me that i had a ulcer on my cornia. And he was the one that told me that i was allergic to the thimerasol in the contact solution and he gave me antibiotc drops and told me not to wear my contacts for at least 2 or 3 weeks and to change solutions . It was the best thing that happend. I wish the Eye Doctor and technician would have told me that stuff when i went in complaining of that stuff. That was 40 years ago. Thanks for all of your videos.

I tossed out the budget solution and I'm going back to clear care plus with hydraglyde.

    Question: can I alternate between the different soft lens solutions with my B&L Ultras toric multifocals? I bought all the different solutions you mention. I am using the opti-free puremoist right now. It is great at keeping my lenses moist, I like it. Years ago there was nothing that worked like this does. I use the drops as well. I am not sure if I am hitting 20 seconds of rubbing on each lens. Rubbing so much seems to make it easier to damage the lens by mistake. What about the "Clens" solution to remove protein deposits?
    I am really enjoying your channel. When I was about 9 years old I had my first visit with an ophthalmologist. I decided I wanted to be an eye doctor or an optician. But once I hit high school, there was so much that interested me that I dabbled in everything and mastered nothing! But now, even in my 60's I think going to school to be an optician actually seems do-able. It's all so interesting.

I do this on Sunday as I put my lenses in Monday morning & leave them in all week, taking them out on Sunday.
