Clear Care contact rinsing? - 1


I forgot to rinse the contacts with clear care solution before putting them in the special case. Rinsing them for 5 seconds is part of the instructions. Does it matter? I put them in clear care solution after taking them out from my contact case with saline soIution so they werent dry. I usually leave my contacts in the special case for Clear Care for around 8 hours to neutralize the peroxide and then put them in a regular contact case with regular saline for a good while before putting them on; i put them in saline afterwards just because i dont want to put my contacts right back in my eyes after using a peroxide solution regardless of being neutralized or not. Will not rinsing my contacts for those 5 seconds affect anything? My contacts are soft lenses not RGP. Clear care was recommended to me by my optometrist so thats why im using a hydrogen peroxide solution instead of multipurpose.

Can I get non prescription contact lenses at the eye doctor?


I can't get colored contacts with a prescription because I have astigmatism, and apparently they don't sell colored contacts for astigmatism. So do they sell colored contacts at the eye doctor? I would just wear them for nights out, not every day. Would the eye doctor think it's stupid that I want non prescription contacts?

Which Contact Solution should i get, Renu or Opti-Free?


I need to buy a new bottle of contact solution. The last kind I had I didn't care for (felt a little sticky), so I'm going to go with Opti-Free or Renu, both brands I have used before in the travel bottles.

I wear Air Optix Night and Day Aqua Contact lenses that are for a month at a time (including leaving in at night). My eyes do get dry some and I will put in an eyedrop from my solution every once in a while.
So should I go with Renu or Opti-Free? (Also, any eye drops I should get to use separately from my contact solution for dry eyes?)

Replacing lens at Walmart?


I just got a new pair of half rimmed glasses, but I moved so I'm pretty far away from my usual eye doctor. There's none near where I live, but I was wondering if Walmart would be able to do it if I didn't purchase it from them and if so, how much does it usually cost?
If Walmart doesn't have this service, are Costco or Sams a good option? Thanks
