Solutions for kerasoft IC

Postby Nickysells1 » Tue 30 Oct 2012 7:37 pm

I'm using crystal cleaner and Quattro solution at the mo and noticed after having the lens just a few days things are getting a little blurry and smeary after several hours.

Wondered if the solutions maybe causing this...?

Any thoughts be appreciated

Hi Nicky

This sound s like a solution issue caused by Crystal Cleaner. This is alcohol based and can cause smearing as you describe with certain materials, this would,affect KeraSoft.

I suggest discontinuing cleaning with crystal and just rub and rinse withnyour soaking solution. Let me know what happens !

Aha! I did wonder as the bottle has no proper English on it!

I tried not using it last night so will keep you posted and let you know how I go with David next Monday

Cheers

I've been using the Bausch & Lomb ReNu MPS Sensitive Eyes for My Kerasoft IC lenses for the past 4 years now with no problems at all.
