Hi Steven,

The only one I'm aware of that is fully preservative free is ami-dose. It comes in clear tubes with green writing.

On the surface it may look unbelievably expensive as it says "sterile till open" which makes you think it's single use, which maybe it is meant to be. I just put the white cap back on.

Is it for filing a lens before fitting? If so one tube lasts ages.

Not sure if it was here I got mine but there are a few.

Cheers,
Andrew

Not the cheapest but I have to use this because bottle is easier as I'm prone to tendinitis
