A member asked:
Can i drop a bit of contact lenses solution in my eyes in order to make it easier to put them on?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: You should not put all-in-one contact lens solution directly into your eyes. Instead put a small drop onto the contact lens before inserting it. If your eyes are dry, put artificial tears for contact use into your eyes. Contact lens solution is harsh. Sterile saline is better and easier on the eyes.
