If you wear monthly or weekly contact lenses, using a contact lens solution is important in keeping them working their best. We stock a wide range of solutions that are ideal for caring for your contact lenses, meaning they are always clean and comfortable for you to use.
Contact lens solutions are products designed to clean, disinfect and care for your monthly or weekly lenses. Typically, you would use them at the end of the day when you're taking your contacts out for the night, cleaning and rinsing them first before storing them in a contact lens case filled with more solution.
There are different types of solutions for contact lenses, depending on how you like to use them and what type of lenses you wear.
The most common kind of solution is multi-purpose solutions, used for soft contact lenses made from hydrogel or silicone hydrogel. As the name suggests, these are an all-in-one option that can be used to store, clean and re-wet monthly, weekly and daily lenses.
Contact lens cleaners and saline solutions are perfect for effectively removing any dirt or debris from your lens surface, ensuring clean lenses that feel fresh to wear. If they need a deeper clean, you may want to use a protein removal tablet instead of a solution, such as Ultrazyme Universal or Amiclair.
Gas permeable solutions are made to clean, disinfect and store RGP or hard contact lenses. As they are made from a different material to soft contacts, they need a different type of solution. The good news is that products like Total Care and Boston Simplus are all-in-one options that are perfect for cleaning, storing and disinfecting rigid gas permeable lenses.
If you're heading off on a trip, it might not be so convenient for you to take your solution with you, particularly with airport restrictions on liquids. In this case, you can pick up a travel or flight pack. These perfectly portable bottles are ideal for a trip away and fit easily into your hand luggage.
Contact solutions are essential if you wear monthly or weekly lenses. They're the only way to guarantee that your lenses are hygienic to wear and that your eyes stay healthy and comfortable while you're wearing them.
Over the course of the day, it's only normal that your lenses will accumulate dirt and debris and protein deposits may build up. Not only can this irritate your eyes, but it can also obscure your vision. Regularly cleaning your lenses is the only way to ensure perfectly clear eyesight, free from discomfort.
Storing your lenses in solution guarantees that they stay sterile, correctly shaped and properly hydrated. The chemicals contained in solutions are specifically compatible with the material of your contact lenses to keep them in top condition and so water will not do as an alternative.
Multi-purpose solutions can even be good for daily contact lenses. Although they don't need to be stored each night in solution, you can use it to clean or rewet them during the day should you experience any irritation or if any dirt builds up.

Learning how to read your contact lens prescription might be daunting at first. All contact lens prescriptions include a least three values: base curve, diameter, and power. However, for toric or multifocal lenses additional values will be added to the prescription, usually no more than four.
The specifications you can expect to see are as follows:
Base Curve (BC): The curvature of the lens in millimetres usually between 8.3 and 9.0.
Diameter (D): The diameter of the contact lens. This number ranges from between 13.8 to 14.5.
Power (PWR/SPH): Is a + or - figure followed by a number e.g. -4.50 or +0.25. This represents the level of visual correction needed, and whether your lenses correct long-sightedness (plus/+ powers) or short-sightedness (minus/- powers). For some contact lenses, the power may also be 0.00, plano or displayed with this symbol ∞ which is for non-prescription use e.g. coloured contact lenses.
If you have astigmatism or wear multifocal contact lenses you can read out full guide on how to read your contact lens prescription.

We stock the exact same lenses at competitive rates as well as next day delivery, knowledgeable customer service, and a 365-day replacement guarantee and a price match promise.
