Contact Lenses & Care
renu® fresh™ multi-purpose solution keeps lenses comfortable with its unique formula that enhances wettability and removes lipids and protein deposits.
Provides sustained wettability and lens conditioning

Hydranate® effectively cleans and removes both native and denatured protein that accumulates during wear.

Native Protein - which is easily removed with a simple soak (passive cleaning). Even saline can remove native protein from soft lenses.
- Is Transparent
- Is Natural (always present in tears)
- Presents no significant threat to lens wearing comfort or ocular health

Denatured Protein - binds strongly to the lens requiring a protein remover that removes both native and denatured protein.
Denatured proteins:
- Bind strongly to the lens surface
- Are Translucent to opaque in appearance
- May reduce comfort
- May cause adverse ocular effects such as Giant Papillary Conjunctivitis
- May decrease visual acuity
1 An in vitro study evaluated the release of wetting agents from Group IV contacts lenses. Lenses were soaked overnight in either renu® fresh™ multi-purpose solution, Opti-Free Express, or Complete Moisture Plus Solutions. Lenses were rinsed with phosphate buffered saline at a rate approximating tear film secretions for an eight-hour period. At designed times, surface tension (dynes/cm) of wetting agents rinsed from the lens was calculated using saline as the control and compared to the surface tensions for the multi-purpose solutions. The results are an indications that renu® fresh™ multi-purpose solution remains presents on lens surfaces longer than competitive products.
