Which eye drop is preservative-free along with contact lens?

This Premium Q&A, reviewed and published, features a real conversation between an iCliniq user and a physician.

Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I am a regular user of contact lens. Currently, I am facing a little discomfort due to dryness. A doctor told me not to use eye drops solution with contact lenses as it contains preservatives which can spoil the lenses. I would like to request you to suggest me a preservative-free eye drop which I can use with a contact lens at the earliest. Also, I work in computers for 10 to 12 hours.

Please help.

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I understood your concern.

Preservative-free eyedrop is good if someone is having problems with preservatives. There are many good options available with no preservatives. They are available in single-use small vials.

Hope this helps.

Thanks and regards.
