Moisturizing drops for the eyes when wearing lenses: names, species, producers, composition and reviews

Today, a large number of people choose their contact lenses. First of all, it's convenient! Unfortunately, the people who wear contact lenses for a long time, the expressions "dry eye", "red eyes" are familiar firsthand. These problems, as well as fatigue, are easily solved by moisturizing lubricating drops for lenses.

The action of this remedy is as follows: a film is created on the cornea of the eye, which, in its properties, is close to a natural tear. Thus, the eyes are constantly moistened, discomfort disappears.

Ophthalmologists recommend the use of moisturizing drops for the eyes when wearing lenses, significantly reducing not only eye fatigue, but also discomfort, to avoid dryness.

Not always blame the whole lens

There is an opinion that any discomfort that has appeared during the wearing of lenses is poor-quality or improperly chosen means of vision correction. This conclusion is not a fiction or a "black PR" of eyewear producers, but not always. The use of lenses or glasses throughout the day, whatever qualitative they may be, can lead to eye fatigue and any other unpleasant sensation. This is evidenced by the websites of online optics stores, the comments of "ochkarikov", their comments and feedback. Moisturizing drops for lenses are designed specifically to solve these problems.

Therefore, before you blame the lenses in everything, change the packaging for packaging of different manufacturers, or even look, abandon them, it is worth trying drops for the eyes.

To begin with it is necessary to understand, and what they happen?

Types of eye drops

Classification of the types of drops for the eyes is directly related to the purpose for which they are applied, with what illness they will have to fight.

We can distinguish the following manifestations of diseases and unpleasant sensations, and the means corresponding to these sensations:

• reddening and inflammation of the tissue of the anterior part of the eye - antiseptic and anti-inflammatory drops;
• allergic manifestations (tearfulness, redness, swelling, pruritus) - antiallergic drops;
• bacteria, virus, cataract, glaucoma and other diseases - special drops that the doctor prescribes, most often strictly according to the prescription;
• redness and swelling of the eyes - vasoconstrictor drops;
• dry eye syndrome and associated feelings of discomfort - moisturizing drops.

It is the last most popular.

How to choose drops

Perhaps, it is obvious, how much moisturizing drops are needed when wearing contact lenses. But here comes a new question: how to choose them?

For those who choose lenses for prolonged or continuous wearing, who works and rests in them, the best option is a drop, when instilled, there is no need to remove the lens. The following manufacturers should pay attention:

• "Hilo-chest" - "Avizor".
• "VISAS. A pure tear "-" Johnson and Johnson. "
• "Oxyal" - "SANTEN".
• Lens-Komod - «Ursapharm» and others.

When using other means, it is required to remove the lenses from the eyes, often they can only be put on after 15-20 minutes after instillation:

• Systein - Alcon.
• "Ottagel" - "SANTEN" and others.

Everyone chooses his own, and ultimately prefers those moisturizing drops for lenses, which are better suited and more comfortable to use.

Is there a drop for lenses?

How to moisten eyes in lenses? Which drops for the lens exactly fit? These questions sooner or later arise in front of people who first encountered a choice of drops.
The main thing is not to be mistaken that moisturizing drops for the eyes - a medicine. For the eyes, they only relieve discomfort, but in no case are they able to solve some serious problems, diseases (of an allergic nature, for example).

The drops consist mainly of special physiological preparations, which in principle are already present in the tissues of the human eye. Therefore, there are practically no restrictions on frequency of use and age, they can often be used constantly, "both old and young," as they say.

Of course, there are cases of human intolerance to certain components. Therefore, it is recommended that when the droplets are first selected, consult an ophthalmologist.

Properties of drops for lenses

Moisturizing drops for the eyes when wearing lenses in their composition have hyaluronic acid, capable of binding 1000 times more water than the weight of drops in the vial. Also this substance has an increased property of viscosity, which helps to moisturize the surface of the cornea for a long time.

In addition, this product has a bioadhesive property that provides reliable protection of the lens from drying. It is soft contact lenses, so popular today, have such a drawback - to dry out in hot and windy weather.

Also in the drops are cleansing substances that can remove from the surface of a large accumulation of harmful deposits that occur with prolonged wearing of lenses.

Drops for lenses have a viscoelastic property. Therefore, in order to quickly distribute them on the surface of the lens, it is enough only to "blink", and vision is not clouded.

Another important property of drops is a calming function. They not only moisturize, but also are able to remove eye irritation.

The composition of the drops

Any solution designed to care for contact lenses is divided into saline, purifying, disinfecting and moisturizing (eye drops when wearing lenses).

Saline is an isotonic solution used for rinsing and storing contact lenses with the presence of a disinfection system (thermal) in it, sometimes containing preservatives. The longer the period of use, the greater the amount of preservatives in its composition. From the shelf life of the solution depends on the speed of propagation and prevention of microorganisms.

In fact, moisturizing drops when wearing contact lenses - this is the same saline solution, but with additional lubricating, cleansing and moisturizing agents.

For example, in the "Alcon" -drop "Clerz Plus" added 2 active cleaning components Tetronic and Clens-100, which provide effective removal from the lens surface of protein deposits. Company "Allergan" offers drops "Refresh Contacts" containing hydroxypropyl methylcelluloses. Due to this component, droplets can lubricate the surface of the lens and the cornea of the eye for a long time, preventing them from drying out.

Choose the best moisturizing drops for yourself, when wearing contact lenses - you will definitely feel the effect!
