I'm looking for some advise as to which of these 1 bottle solutions you
would recommend for health & all day comfort. I'm from the UK and a
previous user of Complete Moisture Plus solution until the recent withdrawal
of the product. I wear a Focus N&D but don't sleep in the lens. I tried
the Optifree Replenish and although initially it is comfortable, after a
couple of hours the lens starts to feel irritating and a burning sensation
in the eye.

My opticians have given me a sample of Coopervision Options Multi and also a
sample of Regard made by Vita Research. They say that the Regard is a
little more expensive but they have never had any negative reports from
patients who use it. If both solutions work well do you think the Regard
solution will be better for the health of the eye. Or does anyone recommend
a better solution which I can discuss with my optician? Thanks

Talk to your doctor, tell him your complaints, and have him PRESCRIBE
a different contact lens care system.

Normally, I would do one of two things for patients like you:

1. Continue using the OptiFree RepleniSH as indicated, but rinse the
lens off thoroughly with non-preserved saline prior to instillation.
2. Switch to Ciba's ClearCare.
