I’m on the fence about the Replenish drops. I love the Replenish Multi-purpose solution, and so had to try the drops. Now, the drops work, and sometimes–but not always–they work great at clearing up that hazy, fogginess that sometimes happens late in the day as proteins and oils stick to contacts. They don’t keep your eyes and lenses as moist for as long as Blink drops do, but they are different products. Replenish is more geared toward keeping your lenses cleaner, rather than wetter, though it does rewet very nicely for an hour or so. But like I said, sometimes it doesn’t seem to clean all that consistently. If you have problems with protein deposits and oils sticking to your lenses, you should try this product.
And I would NOT say that it stings, but sometimes I am a little more aware of it’s presence after application that I am with Blink drops. Blink relieves right away, and feels more natural than these Replenish drops.
One thing I LOVE about these Replenish drops is the applicator bottle. It quickly puts out perfect drops, at any angle, every time. And they are nice tiny little drops that don’t drown your eyes. You might need two drops per eye, as they are that small. In comparison, Blink drop’s (which I prefer) applicator tip is fussy about a consistent size drop, and the drop is very large.

I wear disposable sleep in contacts and have for years. I did research and the safest brand of rewetting drops are made by Alcon, such as Opti-Free. There has never been an FDA recall for them and by all measures they have the highest quality manufacturing of any brand. This is why I use Alcon Opti-Free and only Alcon Opti-Free. I used to buy rewetting drops on price until the Bausch & Lomb and other recalls changed my mind. When I learned that contact lens drops I used in my eyes were subject to a recall upset me greatly. Since then, I only use Alcon, and no other brand. Also, the Opti-Free drops are excellent. The feel good on my eyes and help lubricate my contact lens.

I just have to say, this is the best product out there. I have used the blink drops, and I find that the Opti free replenish rewetting drops is much better. My lenses stay moist and clearer longer than using blink. In addition, I found the bottle is easier to use. With the blink product, I really had to squeeze so the ‘drop’ could ‘drop’, even with a full bottle.

Some days I only need them once. Leaves me seeing clear. Small size very portable.

These rewetting drops are the best I have used. I use acuvue oasys lenses and while wearing use these drops 2 to 3 times in a 12 hour wear day. Makes the eyes very comfy and keeps things crystal clear.

It is nice that this is an all-in-one product. There is no separate cleaner. This is very gentle on the eyes, and easy to use.
