I thought they took the thimerosal out of contact solution a number of years

ago. This brand may have designed their packaging back when some brands still

included thimerosal but I would definitely read ingredient lists. I know it's

still in some ear drops.

My NT daughter just got the soft type of contact lenses.  She ran <BR>

out of solution that the eye dr. gave her and I went to the store to <BR>

by some more...One brand, I think it was the store brand <BR>

specifically stated on the front of the box, THIMERISOL FREE!  I was <BR>

shocked!  So, that brings me to my question: Has anyone done any <BR>

research on the brands that use safe preservatives in their <BR>

solution?  Can anyone recommend a specific brand?<BR>

<BR>

Thanks,<BR>

Thimerisol was taken out of all over the counter products in the early 1980s

because so many people where having adverse reactions to it (myself

included). But it is still in some prescription products for eyes and ears.
