A member asked:

Hi i ran out of contact solution so i used systane ultra contact eye drops as substitute and its been sitting in the contact case for 2 nights is itok?

Not a problem: Systane is sterile and is designed to be put directly into the eye. It can do a job cleaning and soaking your contacts and then you can put them back into your eyes without extra rinsing.
