Contact Lenses & Care

renu® fresh™ multi-purpose solution offers excellent antimicrobial activity, while remaining safe and gentle on eyes.

Established compatibility with silcone hydrogel lenses

Low incidence of corneal staining related to solution intolerance

Highly biocompatible with corneal tissue

Proven noncytotoxic in a variety of USP elution tests

* In vitro study evaluated the effects of contact lens care solutions on human corneal epithelial cells in culture compared to a control of Hank’s Balanced Salt Solution. Monolayer cultures were grown and exposed to each solution for 15 minutes. Sodium fluorescein was used to evaluate permeability effects on the monolayer while alamarBlue was used to measure activity. Additionally, monolayers were also grown and evaluated after being exposed to each solution for 10 minutes by scanning electron microscopy.
