Default Re: where else to put contacts

DON'T use distilled water. Saline solution has salt in it just like your natural tears. Putting them in your eyes after soaking in distilled water is going to pull the water out of the contacts into your eyes and dry them out (osmosis).

Just put them in tap water. Tap water will do the same thing, but to a much lesser extent. It will take your eyes a little while to moisten them, but it won't hurt your eyes.
