    Thumbs up How to use less contact solution!

    My bottle of contact solution says to rinse the lenses with contact solution for 5 seconds. Then you fill the dispenser with contact solution and soak the lenses.

    Well, I thought of this expensive solution rinsing the lenses and going down the drain. And I thought, it's not like it is super dirty or that its cleaning properties have been used up. So now I rinse my lenses over the vial that I need to fill, filling the vial up as I rinse.

    I did mention this to my eye doctor and he just shrugged his shoulders.

    I know its supposed to be no-rub solution but I clean my lenses the old-fashioned way. (rub in the palm of your hand for 20 seconds) I've been wearing contacts for so long that its the way I'm used to doing it anyways and I can't see wasting so much solution.
    “When you get to the end of all the light you know
    and it's time to step into the darkness of the unknown,
    faith is knowing that one of two things will happen:
    you will be given something solid to stand on,
    or you will be taught how to fly.” - Edward Teller


    “Our Earth is degenerate in these later days;
    there are signs that the world is speedily
    coming to an end;
    bribery and corruption are common; children no
    longer obey their parents;
    every man wants to write a book and the
    end of the world is evidently approaching.”
    — From a translation of an inscription on
    an Assyrian clay tablet, circa 2800 B.C.E.


    God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change,
    courage to change the things I can,
    and the wisdom to know the difference
