Could i use "tears naturale ii" eye drops to soak my contacts?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: These are lubricating drops, they are not designed to clean or condition a contact lens. Use contact lens solution only to clean and store your lenses otherwise to increase the risk of a sight threatening infection.
