Do you have to buy contact solution from your eye doctor?
is your eye doctor supposed to tell you which contact solution to use or can you use whatever you want??

Maybe give some free advice about: Advicenators?
No way, you can buy whatever you want. I've had contacts for about 3 years and usually stick to Alcon's Opti-Free solution, which has worked significantly better than other brands I have tried. You can find contact solution in any Walmart, CVS, Walgreens, etcetera.

When my doctor gave me my contact lenses, he gave me a tiny bottle of contact solution to go with it. My guess is that is his recommendation for me, since there are other brands to choose from, but he constantly gives me the same one.
So, in your case, I would definitely go by what the eye doctor tells you. He knows the solutions that goes perfect with your eye problems, such as itchiness and redness, so it is best to follow his directions.

I don't know if it's the same everywhere, but where I live contact solutions don't require prescriptions, so your doctor can't make you buy a particular one. They could (or the contact manufacturer could) sell contacts and solutions as a package deal, and leave you with little choice but to pick up the recommended solution along with your contacts purchase.
However, a doctor's recommendation should be taken very seriously. They know the type and brand of contacts you are using after all, and have looked your eyes. If you didn't get a recommendation and would like one, I'm sure you could call the office and ask their opinion. If you are having a problem with the solution that you were recommended, I'm sure your doctor would want to hear that information to help them in the future.
If you just want to keep on buying what you always buy despite a doctor's opinion, no one can stop you.

it kinda depends on the contacts your using but if you like using regular clear lenses then mostlikely no you can just get w/e but if you have like clear day n nights then those use a special one i think
]
i think you can use w|e you want

I believe you can use whatever you want. But maybe you chould ask your eye doctor what would be best!

i would listen to him because he no's best i hope i helped!!!!
]
you could ask him what would be best or what he would suggest but you can use whatever you want
]
im sure you can use whatever you want but there are certain kinds that are better for your eyes
]
usually they will tell you what they think you should use but you yourself can get what ever brand/kind you want. Although im not sure but diffrent brands of contacts might require certain kinds of solution.

u can use whatever youw ant, but some like, RENU and COMPLETE< those are expensive, but if you get the store brand, it is EXACTLY the same as those, but cheaper, i found that out from several people and my eye doctor. :-)
]
No, u can use any kind u wanna use
]
You can use whatever one that you think will work, but if you dont feel right just making your own decisions then mayb you should consult your doctor! Just to be safe!

i think it doesn't really matter... but then agian i don't need contacts or watever... but my stepmom does..
]
well i think you should use what they give you because it might be due to your eye type. But you should ask them.

If u have a sensitive eye, then yes, ur doctor should tell u, if not, just make sure it's something water based and nothing off the internet o.0 I suggest opti-free express lens cleaning solution. It's for beginners and it works well for all :-)
Hope it works!

Your doctor is supposed to tell you your perscription if your getting contacts with perscription (which is glasses) or if your just getting color contacts your might have to talk to your doctor still because it depends on your eyesight if you might damage it.

ummm... they should tell you which one they do perfer, but i really don't think it matters, as long as it isn't the cheap shit. :-)

I bet your eye doctor could suggest some, like to get the sensitive eye solution, but they're kind of all the same. RENU works great =)

It is your personal preferance. I buy the cheap stuff at Sam's Club.
Having your docotor tell you would be like your dentist telling you what toothpaste to use. :)
