Miraflow alternative?

Postby dave101 » Mon 07 Apr 2008 8:31 am

Hi guys, I'm new to the forum (though have been reading for a while).

I use a "softperm" lens in my left eye and have been cleaning in with Miraflow daily cleaner (plus B&L Renu).
However I've been finding it harder and harder to get my hands on Miraflow (down to my last bottle) and I'm not sure if maybe it's been discontinued?

Anyway, I'm just wondering if you can suggest an alternative to it? I'm going to ask my ophthalmologist but it never hurts to have a second opinion :)

thanks

dave

Welcome to the forum

I always used Total Care for daily cleaning and wetting purposes. Don't know if it would be a good replacement for Miraflow.

Why not ask at your optometrist for some advice on what you can use? They usually have a pretty good idea of what is on the market.

I am sure you could order it online, maybe directly from the company.

Hi

I use Miraflow as well. I get mine from postoptics, along with my saline. Their website is:

The company seems fine.

Many Thanks

Hey guys,

Thanks for the replies. I had looked at the postoptics site beforehand but alas they do not ship outside the UK (I am in Ireland). I guess I'll try some other online sites..
