Anyone know other solutions comparable to ClearCare, i.e. hydrogen peroxide? We will be moving to Italy and it looks like they don't have it there.

Not as far as I know. If this is a Permanent move perhaps you could find a way to have it shipped to you. I would not be without Clear Care and would find a way to have a supply handy. Good luck.

Ellen, Look for a solution that contains about 3% hydrogen peroxide. This is a key ingredient that disinfects the lens from live bacteria.

Brilliant, thanks. I travel a lot from the UK to the USA and am allergic to the chlorine in the water. I think this is worth a try, thank you!

Perhaps bacteria buildup. Suggest hydrogen peroxide solution to run through it.

They recomend using their rose water,which does not work either!, i just threw them away and went back to using skin peels,which are very effective. I go to skinpeel.com.

Hi Joel, I have not been to Europe in about 15 years (!) but I would suggest one of Oral B's inexpensive battery- operated toothbrushes. I have used them for travel in the states, and the least expensive ones are disposable. Safe travels :)

I know it's been discontinued because Bayer AG purchased all Merck over the counter products. Has anyone found anything comparable? I have only 1 bottle left!

Hydrogen peroxide! H2O2. The 3% solution used to treat wounds is near food grade. (with instructions for rinsing mouth and ears too) It's completely biodegradable -&gt; water and oxygen. It kills all living things. But dilute enough to be safe to treat wounds. It turns your teeth white. It turn tiles grout snow white with a few drops. It removes all organic (cell) stains, even rust stains around the faucet. It does not react with plastic. It's the main ingredient in Oxi-clean. Since all your drinks must be organic (cell), soak the cap in H2O2 for a few minutes to overnight will kill everything, and most likely remove all stains too. You try with a stinky cup, and see the bubbles attack the skunk, weaken the bonding between the skunk and the surface, and then the skunk flows away with the bubbles. I had the autoseal for my kindergartener. She is now in 1st grade and the seal is still perfect. Hydrogen peroxide won't do anything to the plastic. Would it shorten the life of seals? Probably not. I don't guarantee anything. The other age old method is to add uncooked rice (or similar) into the cup, add water and shake. It beats any brush and dish washer, especially at the areas that brushes cannot reach. Do not push the button when rice is in. The worst you can do is jam the autoseal with rice. But rice will soften after a good soak with water. Any leak proof or spill proof mechanism have some hard to reach areas. You don't see it doesn't mean germ and dirt cannot accumulate. You can always use a mug.

weird trick that I use is the effervescent tablets used to clean dentures. I drop a tablet in the bottle that's filled with water. The bubbles help loosen up the gunk in the places the bottle brush cannot reach. After the effervescents, I wash the bottle with dish soap and water. and Presto! bottle is like new

I would try peroxide, Apple cider vinegar, or bleach with a squirt bottle. A magic eraser is helpful on mildew/mold issues on other products. Thats weird that mold occurred despite the chlorination... Mine is used in a lake on weekends then tossed on a screened porch to dry for the week. Fortunately, we havent experienced any mildew/mold issues. I hope these suggestions are beneficial. Goid luck!!

Honestly, never have tried. Do a test patch on a non conspicuous place. A little bit of mild soap and water usually also does the trick in my house of grubby handed children. Or baby wipes. Those worked really well too!

I've never had to encounter this problem BUT I would try to soak it in a few products. OXY works well for me with some things. Spray and wash may work as well but spray it and scrub it by hand. Other than that, I wouldn't know. Google around...which I'm sure you have already. Sorry to hear that.

We just rinse it out with soap and water. Hydrogen peroxide works on many oral products, but I'm not sure if it will damage the plastic. I'm sure mouthwash (i.e. Listerine) would work, too.

I'm not too familiar with Sauflon one step, but according to their website it has hydrogen peroxide in it. Hydrogen peroxide + platinum (the disk in these H2O2 systems) = oxygen and water. The other system would have to have a platinum disk, but you do not know how long to soak your lenses with it to completely neutralize the peroxide. I would proceed with caution.

I keep mine in the frig. I think it will last a long time. It's mostly peroxide.

It hasnt yet. And I have 2 that get used daily one i've had for over a year and the other I've had for atleast 6 months. You could put hydrogen peroxide in the reservior once a month if you are worried about it though.
