I suggest you look to your daily cleaning regimen and the age of your lenses. Add an enzyme cleaner if you haven't been using one; I use the Boston product that comes in vials.
Also, I have been told RGP material are only good for 1 to 2 years. Maybe it's time to buy replacement lenses.
Good luck . . .

Thank you for this advice which sounds to me very feasible. I am just concerning about hygiene. How long time do you soak a q-tip in Boston Conditioning Solution for? Also if you just use plain saline, do you use sterile q-tip or just normal q-tip? Thank you!

I've got the Q tips and I found them easy and feasible....
Thanks for sharing.

Well,
It is a good idea but it is not practically feasible like drops.
Thanks

How can I get rid of the dirtiness on the external surface of the lenses.
I use now the blink-n-clean but no benefit.
The only way to resolve the problem is to take them out, rinse and insert them again.
Any suggestions....Tags: None
