Today I want to tell you about a product that is perfect for all the contact lens wearers in the audience. I’m (sort of) reviewing a product called Biotrue. Let me explain the “sort of” part. I signed up for this campaign because I do need vision correction, and at my recent trip to the eye doctor, she told me that I had dry eyes and needed to find some eye drops (this is evidently a VERY common problem for anyone who spends a significant amount of time in front of the computer, just an FYI). I thought that Biotrue might be used as such, in addition to being useful as a contact lens solution.
So, I was wrong about that. Thankfully, on the FAQ page of their website, they note this (which made me feel less silly…I guess I’m not the only person who thought it could be used this way). I should have checked that section before signing up (lesson learned!), and sadly, I do not wear contacts. So all this is to say that I have not personally used this product.
However, I have been reading up on it, and it really does sound fantastic! In fact, I watched a video review by Vanderbilt Wife, and I thought her testimonial about how this product literally revitalized her warped lenses was awesome. Check it out if you have a second!
Ok, so what makes Biotrue better than all the other dozens of contact lens solutions on the market? Well, it goes beyond cleaning your contacts! It contains a lubricant that is found naturally in your eyes, which means getting your contacts in is going to be much less irritating.
Second, the pH of this product matches that of healthy tears! On their site, I found a statistic that 81% of people who tried this product said it felt like their natural tears. So, you could try to catch your own tears and save them up in a bottle, or you could just get some Biotrue. Up to you, but I’m thinking that the latter might be the way to go!
Finally, it keeps certain beneficial tear proteins active, which means that it is helping your eyes to not get dried out while your contacts are in. I would imagine that this is a very good thing, indeed!
Biotrue is available pretty much everywhere, which sure is convenient. And there’s a $1.00 off coupon that you can use when you purchase it. Hooray!
