Questions relating to AOSEPT Plus

How does AOSEPT Plus work?

AOSEPT Plus has a built-in cleaner, as well as hydrogen peroxide to penetrate the lenses for a deep cleaning. Hydrogen Peroxide itself offers triple-action cleaning power through oxidation, bubbling action and ionic displacement. AOSEPT Plus also helps prevent serious eye infections by killing harmful microorganisms on contact lenses

How is AOSEPT Plus different from multipurpose solutions?

AOSEPT Plus is the only one-bottle, no rub, hydrogen peroxide-based cleaning and disinfecting solution with none of the added preservatives or harsh chemicals found in multi-purpose solutions. In fact, after the six-hour neutralization process is complete, the lenses will be soaking in a gentle, sterile saline similar to tears.

What types of chemicals remain on the lens after using AOSEPT Plus?

None. The hydrogen peroxide in AOSEPT Plus is neutralized during the six-hour soaking process so that the remaining solution is a sterile saline without preservatives that is similar to natural tears.

What causes the neutralizing reaction between the disc and the solution?

The hydrogen peroxide in the solution reacts with the platinum in the disc to create the neutralization process, which is completed in six hours.

If the lenses do not soak for the full six hours can they hurt the eye upon insertion?

The lenses must soak in AOSEPT Plus for the entire six hours to ensure completion of the neutralization process otherwise burning and stinging will result.

How does AOSEPT Plus effectively clean without rubbing the lens?

AOSEPT Plus has a built-in cleaner, as well as hydrogen peroxide to penetrate the lenses for a deep cleaning. Hydrogen Peroxide itself offers triple-action cleaning power through oxidation, bubbling action and ionic displacement. AOSEPT Plus meets the two tests established by the FDA; the primary criteria of the Stand Alone Test and the Regimen Test, for disinfecting solutions in order to be approved as a no-rub lens care solution.  AOSEPT Plus also helps prevent serious eye infections by killing harmful microorganisms on contact lenses.

Why doesn’t AOSEPT Plus cause symptoms of dryness and discomfort like other multipurpose solutions?

Multipurpose solutions contain added preservatives and harsh chemicals that may cause dryness and discomfort for contact lens wearers. AOSEPT Plus does not have any of these harsh chemicals or added preservatives. In fact, after the six-hour neutralization process is complete, the lenses will be soaking in a gentle, sterile saline similar to tears. Clinical research shows patients experience
