Unisol 4...eye wash?

[neve]

I saw Unisol 4 at CVS yesterday and hesitated buying it because it seemed as though it was indicated for cleaning contacts which I don't have. I need an eye wash and what I am using now seems to have some not too great preservatives (Bausch and Lomb Eye relief eye wash).

Is unisol 4 ok to use as an eye wash?

Thanks!

YES! Much better than the products that are sold as "eye washes" and all contain BAK. It's just unpreserved saline. Great stuff for rinsing out your eyes, great in a pinch to lubricant temporarily, great to buffer drops that sting or burn (by applying 10-15min earlier).

Thank you Rebecca! Will be on my way to CVS to pick it up!

Is there a UK alternative to this that anyone knows of?

Steripods, I believe. They're in a nice unit-dose packaging.
