I notice that after i use one bottle of Clear Care, the amount of bubbling in the single lens case provided with the two-bottle set, is very much diminished, and therefore I feel it is not cleaning the lenses as well, If you buy the two bottle set, you must get two lens cases! Why doesn't Alcon do this?

As someone who prefers the product. I feel someone should balance out the negativity and enable anyone reading to come to a resolution. A large number of the 1-star reviews are proposing original Clear Care as a superior product. This could be true for a majority of users. I have Dry Eye as a result of a medical condition. I opted for Plus because an Optometrist recommended it and my standard Multipurpose Cleaner Saline Solution had HydraGlyde as well. I don't have any experience to speak of, for any Contact Solution that doesn't contain HydraGlyde. I've never used one. I have been using Clear Care Plus for a couple of months now. I certainly don't have any cloudiness. I know someone who has been a user of Clear Care Plus for over a year, with no complaints. This person before switching almost compulsively put drops in their eyes for cleaning or dryness while using a popular Multipurpose Cleaner for overnight cleanses. Over the course of their first year, I observed a complete behavioral change. I could only attribute the change to the contacts getting cleaner immersed in Clear Care Plus vs. the Standard Multi Purpose Cleaner Saline Solution. I made the switch myself. I believe Clear Care Plus to be the better platform for HydraGlydes purposes. I change contacts on a monthly basis. I have noticed from normal wear that with Clear Care Plus, the contact lenses stay moist longer than with saline solution. By far what I find most impressive is the noticeable difference in the cleanliness and comfort of the lenses. Each day feels like the first, and I can see better. I am sure multipurpose saline solution disinfects or people would be walking around with eye infections. Nonetheless disinfecting and cleaning designate different tasks. I believe Clear Care and Clear Care Plus to be superior at both, especially in the realm of protein removal. Furthermore, I would go as far as to say I think Clear Care and Clear Care Plus to be better preventative care against an eye infection overtime then a saline solution would ever be capable of.

I realize comparing a Saline Solution to a Peroxide-Based Solution carries some burden of unfairness. It has been well documented that Peroxide Based Solutions clean better than Saline counterparts but I deem a comparison necessary since Saline Solutions remain the industry-standard. I believe this to be because Saline Solutions are more convenient in the short-term. Saline Solutions recommend 6 hours of immersion but can be removed beforehand if necessary. Clear Care and Clear Care Plus immersion takes a mandatory 6 hours for the lenses to be ready for wear.

The increased length of time correlates to the key active ingredient Hydrogen Peroxide. The Peroxide must be neutralized before being put into the eye or it will burn, it won't be pleasant. This doesn't sound safe for everyday use but from research, I learned that if the worst happened the Peroxide wouldn't do any long-term damage. Clear Care Solutions are only 3% Peroxide, this isn't the same strength of the stuff on store shelves, but it does do an awesome job of cleaning contacts. The Peroxide does not naturally neutralize on its own. The included Tube with Clear Care and Clear Care Plus Solution has a special Platinum Disc attachment considered safe for up to 100 uses. It's the Platinum Disc in the Tube that begins the process of neutralization as soon as it comes in contact with the peroxide. This is why everyday Contact Cases cannot be used with Clear Care or Clear Care Plus. The same holds true for other generic Peroxide-Based Solutions. I won't go into the science behind the method, but the Platinum Disc effectiveness does diminish over time. Clear Care Solutions have simple instructions to discard The Contact Tube When the supplied solution empties and start fresh. In no scenario was one Tube designed to be in use after it's accompanying Bottle or Bottles has emptied.

A pack of two 12 oz. bottles should come with 1 Clear Care Plus Blue Top Contact Tube. As per my experience the Tube will be safe to use through the two bottles provided in the pack. The Tube should then be discarded. The company changes the color of the Top of the Contact Tube depending on the supply size purchased. A 3 oz. bottle of Clear Care Plus solution comes with a White Top Contact Tube. I am guessing the color coding has something to do with the durability of the Platinum-Disc. In my opinion, it may be safer and more economical to design one universal Tube instead of color coding but I don't work for the company.

If a wearer experiences any discomfort from contact wear immediately after inserting a contact while using Clear care Plus and the accompanying bottle or bottles has not completely emptied its probably an indication the Contact Tube needs to be cleaned out. I generally clean the Tube every 2 weeks or so by filling The Tube with solution with no contact inside and pouring out the dirty Solution when its time to put the contacts inside.

The Clear Care Contact Tube has a very different design, and I think it's more efficient than traditional Cases. The lid can be easily twisted off. There are two compartments with doors labeled L and R attached to the lid. To insert a contact, open a door and place the contact in the appropriate compartment. Pour the solution to the Fill Line on the Tube and screw the lid with the attached compartments back on. The bubble action will begin. Wait six hours, remove the lid, open the compartment that corresponds to the desired eye and done.

The company recommends a 5-second prewash before inserting the lenses into the Tube but there is no need to actually touch Solution at any point. This seems more sanitary then dabbing a finger in Solution or pouring into a palm just to get a contact out, even if hands are washed The remaining neutralized liquid in the Tube can be poured out at the earliest convenience and its ready for use, provided it is not the time to clean it or replace it.

If it becomes necessary to remove the Contacts and use them within 6 hours. A Wearer could use a Standard Multipurpose Saline Solution and a conventional Contact Case for the time being. The company does make a Rinse and Go formula that is Peroxide Free. However, Rinse and Go does not disinfect. Nor does it have HydraGlyde and unlike Clear Care and Clear Care Plus it contains a small amount of preservatives. Rinse and Go does tout being the closest thing to the human eyes natural tears. I use it simply as rewetting drops, not often but when needed. I am hard on a pair contacts.

We sincerely hope this helps fellow contact wearers come to an informed decision. Perhaps, if I didn't have dry eyes, I would have opted for original Clear Care but the aforementioned User doesn't have any eye issues and has not had a problem with Clear Care Plus.

I'm a forever convert to this product. I've worn contacts for 20+ years, and for the majority of that time, I used whatever contact solution was on sale, but always the multipurpose kind. I was the first one in my family to get contacts, so this wasn't really a thing I knew much about. I would squirt the stuff in my palm, rub the contact around and throw it in one of those throwaway contact cases. But like clockwork, my eyes would get scratchy and irritated within a few weeks. It always felt like there was debris or something between my eye and the contact. Fast forward to switching to the Clear Care and the hydrogen-peroxide way of cleaning contacts, I finally feel like I'm not wearing anything at all. My eyes never get irritated and I never get frustrated. I've bought this product from Amazon 8 times now, but over the course of wearing contacts, I've bought it dozens. Worth the money, will never go back.

I use Clear Care for my contact lens as a rule because it cleans them better than anything else I've ever used. Unfortunately stores only seem to sell the 12oz bottles which, while great for home use, are much to large for my travel bag. I wasn't certain that Clear Care even offered a travel size until I searched on Amazon and found this. The price for a 3 oz travel bottle was about half what I normally pay for a 12oz bottle but I was expecting this to be the case (they always charge more for "convenience"). None the less, it was certainly worth the extra money as I had been putting the cleaner in a small bottle that always seemed to leak.

This is the only place to get travel size products.
