Biotrue Contact Lens Solutions

Biotrue Multi-Purpose Solution is a contact lens solution from Bausch + Lomb designed to clean, rinse, disinfect, and store soft contact lenses. Its formula is bio-inspired: it matches the natural pH of healthy tears and uses hyaluronan, a lubricant naturally found in the eye, to condition lenses during storage and maintain moisture. Biotrue also uses a dual disinfection system that kills a broad range of bacteria, fungi, and other pathogens. The result is lenses that feel fresh and comfortable from the moment you insert them, without the need for a separate rinse step.

Yes, Biotrue Multi-Purpose Solution works with silicone hydrogel lenses, including Bausch + Lomb ULTRA, PureVision2, as well as most other silicone hydrogel materials from other manufacturers. Always check the packaging to confirm compatibility with your specific lens type. Biotrue is one of the most widely used and optician-recommended multi-purpose solutions in the UK because of its broad compatibility and bio-inspired formulation. If you switch from another solution and notice any irritation or change in comfort, consult your optician.

Lenses stored in Biotrue Multi-Purpose Solution can be kept for up to 30 days without rewearing, after which they should be re-cleaned and re-disinfected with fresh solution before use. For everyday use, empty your lens case fully after each wear, add fresh Biotrue solution, and allow lenses to soak for a minimum of four hours before reinserting. Never top up the case with old solution, as this reduces the disinfecting effectiveness. Replace your lens case every one to three months to prevent microbial contamination.

The Biotrue DuoPack contains two 300 ml bottles of Biotrue Multi-Purpose Solution, providing approximately two months' supply for a standard wearer. It's a convenient and cost-effective option for regular lens wearers who want to stock up without ordering too frequently. Vision Direct stocks the DuoPack alongside single-bottle formats so you can choose the right size for your needs. Because Biotrue is a rub-and-rinse solution, each bottle lasts a consistent amount of time based on your daily usage, making the DuoPack a practical choice for full-time wearers.

Yes, Biotrue is available in travel-friendly formats. Bausch + Lomb produces Biotrue in a range of sizes, and Vision Direct stocks the DuoPack as well as smaller options suited to travel. When flying, check your airline's liquid restrictions: most carry-on luggage rules in the UK and Europe allow contact lens solution in containers of up to 100 ml in a clear resealable bag. For longer trips, packing a full-sized bottle in your hold luggage is usually more practical. Biotrue's broad compatibility means it works with most lens types you might pack for travel.
