Comments about Alcon Unique pH Multi-Purpose Solution:

I am running low on my supply of Unique PH and I have been searching for more with no luck. Then, I came across the website and customer service number for ALCON, the maker of Unique PH.
I was able to order directly from them at reasonable cost.
The phone number is 1-800-757-9195. You can also find this number on the Unique PH box.

Comments about Alcon Unique pH Multi-Purpose Solution:

I have worn CRT lenses for 4 years. They are worn at night and reshape my corneas while I sleep so that I don't need contacts during the day. With Unique PH I could see 20/20 from morning to night after taking out my lenses. Since you discontinued it I have been forced to use Boston. Terrible! My vision is not consistent during the day.

Comments about Alcon Unique pH Multi-Purpose Solution:

Unique PH is the best solution I have ever used, but I can't find it anywhere. Now I have to use Boston solution because it is the only one I can find for RGP lenses. I am finding that my lenses are not getting nearly as clean and I would LOVE to be able to get Unique PH so I could see clearly and comfortably once again!!!!!

Comments about Alcon Unique pH Multi-Purpose Solution:

This solution was recommended to me by my Optometrist when I told her I could not use Boston solutions. She suggested Lobob Optimum which is an excellent product too! I could not find it anywhere... I asked about this and she said to try it and see as there were no contraindicated substances in the ingredients list... Boy am I glad I did try it. EXCELLENT PRODUCT! I put my lenses in and they are comfortable right from the start. Lobob Optimum WRW is good but this stuff is GREAT! I have to check to see if the lens is actually in... ;) Not really because I can see, but believe me if you have worn RGP/Hard lenses before you know what I am talking about on initial insertion.. you do feel them. I really don't/can't feel them and the comfort lasts and lasts too. I put some of this solution in a small bottle to keep with me for re-wetting should I need to thru the day. I haven't had to do that very often. I have to say... I AM VERY GLAD THE STORE WAS OUT OF LOBOB OPTIMUM, or I would have never found UNIQUE PH! I now have 2 very good choices that I am not allergic to and THE COMFORT WAY SURPASSES THAT OF BOSTON SOLUTIONS SOOOO MUCH BETTER.

Comments about Alcon Unique pH Multi-Purpose Solution:

I have used this product for over 2 years and have never experienced any problems. I was extremely dissapointed to find that Walgreens has discontinued to sell this product. That leaves only one other product available for rigid contact wearers, Boston, which is a terrible product and irritates my eyes. Please put Alcon back on your shelf!

My eye doctor recommended Unique PH to me b/c other, well-known lens products made my eyes irritated and filled with mucous, as if I were allergic. Within a few weeks of using Unique PH, my eyes went back to feeling unirriatated, and my vision had cleared up.

Comments about Alcon Unique pH Multi-Purpose Solution:

It's getting harder to find solution for rigid contacts. I'm so glad I found this product. I have problems with allergies, which cause my contacts to fog up. This product keeps this from happening. One problem, I'm having a hard time finding it in stores, because it is always sold out. It's great, please keep making it and please don't change the formula.
