    Default Contact Solution

    Seeing the other thread about contacts has me curious about your contact solution. In the past, I have used Focus Dailies and I really didn't have to worry about solution. This year, I switched to a two week and now have to use solution. The Dr. gave me a bottle of Opti-Free Express and it seemed to work fine. When I finished it up, I picked up three bottle of generic at Sam's. I'm not totally satisifed with it and plan on not buy generic again. Then again, I'm not real happy with the kind of contact and will probably look to go back to the Focus Dailies. Has anyone else noticed a difference between generic and name brand contact solution? What brand do you currently use?

    I have always used the Equate WalMart brand and only use the 'good' stuff when I get a sample from the optometrist's office. I really have not noticed a difference...but that's me....I where my disposables until they become absolutely too blurry (like 2-3 months)

    I use generics (Target or Wal-Mart brand). I don't notice any difference at all between those and the name brands.

    I've been using the generic Equate stuff for years and haven't noticed a difference. It's just saline solution, so the price for a name brand is ridiculous.
