| britbird's Full Review: Alcon Opti Free Express |
I first came across this brand when I moved from the UK to Holland. For years I'd been using a well-known make of solution, which meant every evening first cleaning and then rinsing my lenses. I hated it!! The lens solutions got all over my hands and I kept dropping my lenses into the sink or onto the floor. I got so annoyed I actually cut back on the days I'd wear my lenses so I didn't have to bother with taking them out.
Since using Alcon Opti-Free, I have cut this time down to about 30 seconds. I love the fact there's only one bottle! All you have to do is cover your lenses with the solution in the lens case and leave overnight. That's it! My bottles even have a big 'No Rub' sticker on them, to remind me there's no need to rub the solution into the lenses first. All I do is give my lens case a good shake once the lenses and solution are in there.
It makes going away on trips so much more convenient - no more counting out plastic vials of rinse solution to make sure I've got enough.
The one negative point is that I experience slightly more eye irritation with this solution than with any others I've used...but I also have a new brand of lenses, so it could always be attributed to that.
