I have been wearing contact lenses for years, thinking about how long makes me realize just how old I am and how long I’ve been out of high school. I’ve worn hard contacts and soft contacts and have had lots of issues with contact solution brands. My eyes either burn or itch depending on the brand I tried using. You might ask, whey I even put up with all the solution issues, well, in the Spring, I get eye allergies and contacts actually provide me with a barrier between my eyes and the pollen. Now, I’m not making any medical claims, ok, it’s just the impression that contacts give me so I wear them during the Spring and Summer. Even if it’s in my head at least it’s a relief from my eye allergies. So I had to find something to use to keep my contact clean. What I was using, in simple terms, was a pain in the butt. Even though, my eyes weren’t itching or burning from the contact solution at the end of the day my eyes were very dry and I would have to take out my contacts and put my glasses on. My eyes sometimes get so dry that I fear that I would blink out my contact lenses and lose them.
So I was happy when Bausch + Lomb sent me a sample of Biotrue Multipurpose contact solution to review in a campaign with Mom Central Consulting. I started using the Bausch + Lomb Biotrue multi-purpose solution and have felt quite a bit of relief in my eyes in the late hours of the day. I’m going to continue using it for the rest of the month to see if it really holds up to the test, but my eyes feel great right now, like I’m not even wearing contacts.
Three Key Features to Remember:
- Has a lubricant found naturally in your eyes
- Matches the pH of healthy tears
- Keeps certain beneficial tear proteins active
I conducted this review while participating in a Mom Central Consulting blog tour on behalf of Bausch + Lomb Biotrue. I received a Biotrue sample and a gift card to thank me for taking the time to participate.

I wear prescription glasses because I haven’t been able to stand the idea of anything in my eye, but recently I’ve developed dry eyes and have had to put artificial tears in regularly, so I’m wondering if I could get over my fear of contacts with this or whether Bausch + Lomb could help me with a product where I don’t have to artificially moisturize my eyes as often.
I recently switched from Clear Care to Biotrue because I was told that Clear Care weakens contacts and shorten their life span. I used this solution properly, however every day that I continued the use of it my eyes became more and more bloodshot. By the third day of using it my eyes were completely bloodshot and I had a raging headache to go along with it. I switched back over to Clear Care and it’s as if the whole thing never happened. I probably won’t use this product again. (I do have dry eyes so that could have played a part. I’m sure this product is fine for the majority of the customer crowd.)
