Bausch + Lomb Sensitive Eyes Plus Saline Solution, 710 ml (Pack of 3)

What Is a Saline Solution and How Is It Different?

Discover Bausch Lomb Sensitive — Saline solution is a sterile mixture of sodium chloride and water, closely matching the salt concentration of your natural tears. It is designed specifically for rinsing contact lenses after cleaning and before insertion, as well as for storing lenses after thermal disinfection. Unlike multipurpose solutions, saline does not contain any disinfecting agents, so it cannot kill bacteria, fungi, or other microorganisms on its own. That is why it is essential to uses saline only after your lenses have been properly disinfected using an MHRA-approved disinfecting solution or method. Using saline as a substitute for a disinfectant is unsafe and could lead to eye infections.

How to Uses This Saline Solution Safely

To get the most out of your Bausch + Lomb Sensitive Eyes Plus Saline Solution while maintaining good eye health, follow these steps:

• After disinfection: Rinse each lens thoroughly with the saline solution before placing them in your eyes. This removes any residual disinfectant that might cause stinging or discomfort.
• Diluting tablets: If you uses enzymatic cleaning tablets, dissolve one tablet in a vial of saline solution as directed by your optician. Place your lenses in the solution for the recommended time.
• Storing lenses: After heat disinfection, fill your lens case with fresh saline solution and store your lenses until next uses. Never reuse solution; always discard and replace with fresh solution each time.
• Important warnings: Never uses tap water, bottled water, or non-sterile homemade solutions. Always wash and dry your hands before handling lenses. Clean your lens case regularly and replace it every three months. Always read the label and follow the directions for uses.
