Contact Lens Solution and Contact Lenses?!


Question: How long is it ok for your contacts to be soaked in the solution? I sometimes don't wear my contacts so I just leave them in the solution for more than a day. Is this safe? When should I change the solution?
I wear Acuvue Oasis with Hydraclear for 2 week by the way and my solution is Renu

You should not let them sit in the same solution for more than a few days. If you go weeks on end without wearing them, I'd say change the solution in the case AT LEAST once a week, but it really should be done like every 3 days. You can get bacterial growth in the case if you let them sit like that.

My husband has a pair of expensive extended wear toric lenses that he got before we met. They are STILL upstairs in our medicine cabinet in the same solution they have been in for like 3 years. He used to try to put them in and then wondered why they burned like hell. That's why!!

U should rub ur lenses again before wearing it. Is ok to leave the lenses in the case for days before wearing. No problem at all.
