Avizor Unica Sensitive All-in-one lens solution

Unica Sensitive is used for the daily care of soft contact lenses. It is an all-in-one solution that cleans, rinses, disinfects, stores and moisturises the lens. According to Avizor, Unica Sensitive is an all-in-one solution containing sodium hyaluronate that cleans and disinfects the lens and supports comfort. This means you do not need separate bottles for cleaning and storage. Always wash and dry your hands first, use fresh solution and observe the recommended soaking time. If you wear special lenses, such as rigid gas-permeable or scleral lenses, only use this solution if your contact lens specialist has confirmed it is suitable. This ensures the care routine is tailored to the lens type and how you wear them.

Unica Sensitive is suitable for soft contact lenses, including silicone hydrogel lenses. Avizor states that the solution is suitable for soft lenses and silicone hydrogel lenses. For these lenses, Unica Sensitive covers the entire daily care routine: cleaning, rinsing, disinfecting, storage and rehydration. Do you wear hard, rigid, overnight, hybrid or scleral lenses? If so, only use this solution if your contact lens specialist has confirmed that it is suitable for your lenses. Care systems can vary depending on the type of lens, and not every solution is intended for every material. Your contact lens specialist will determine which system is suitable for the lens, the material and the wearer’s circumstances. If you are unsure about suitability, please seek advice before using the solution.

Unica Sensitive has been developed for contact lens wearers with sensitive or easily dry eyes. The solution contains a low concentration of preservative, which may be beneficial for people who react easily to standard solutions. In addition, the formula contains sodium hyaluronate, which retains moisture and makes the lens feel smoother. This is particularly beneficial during long periods of wear or when the eyes become drier towards the end of the day. The solution supports the tear film and reduces friction between the lens, the eyelid and the surface of the eye. This does not mean, however, that the solution is automatically suitable for everyone with sensitive eyes. If your eyes remain red, painful or irritated, have your lenses and your care routine checked by a contact lens specialist, optician or ophthalmologist.

Avizor lists sodium hyaluronate as an ingredient in Unica Sensitive. It is used as a moisturising ingredient: it retains moisture and can help make the lenses feel smoother and more comfortable to wear. Sodium hyaluronate also occurs naturally in eye tissue and supports the tear film. It is a moisturising ingredient and not a treatment for dry eyes or a medical condition. If you would like to know whether Unica Sensitive is suitable for a specific lens or situation, please have this assessed by a contact lens specialist. They can tailor its use to the type of lens and the wearer’s wearing habits.

Leave the lenses in Unica Sensitive for at least 4 hours or overnight. This is stated in the Avizor product leaflet. Do not remove the lenses from the solution before the recommended soaking time has elapsed, as the care cycle may not have been completed. Use fresh solution for each treatment and do not top up old solution with new. Store the lenses in a clean lens case. For the exact procedure, follow the instructions for use supplied with the product. In the case of special lenses or a different wearing routine, your contact lens specialist may provide additional instructions regarding the soaking time and routine.

According to the Avizor product leaflet, an opened bottle must be used within 90 days. You should therefore note the opening date on the bottle or packaging so that you know when the solution needs to be replaced. Do not use the solution after the expiry date on the packaging, after the maximum usage period following opening, or if the packaging is damaged. An expired solution or one that has been open for too long may not clean and disinfect as effectively. Store the bottle according to the instructions on the packaging. This ensures the solution continues to work as intended throughout its shelf life. If you are unsure about the shelf life of a bottle, replace it.

Unica Sensitive is intended for soft contact lenses, including silicone hydrogel lenses. The solution is not normally intended for hard, rigid, overnight, hybrid or scleral lenses. Care systems vary by lens type, and rigid lenses often require a different system to soft lenses. You should therefore only use Unica Sensitive for these lenses if your contact lens specialist has confirmed that it is suitable. For rigid lenses, there are separate cleaning and all-in-one systems available in the range. Your contact lens specialist will determine which product is suitable for the lens, the material and the wearing pattern. If you are unsure, please seek advice before using the solution for a different type of lens.

No, Unica Sensitive is not a treatment for dry eyes. The solution contains sodium hyaluronate, a moisturising ingredient that can help improve comfort whilst wearing lenses. Dry eyes can have several causes, such as insufficient tear production, a tear film that evaporates too quickly, prolonged wear, or spending a lot of time in front of a screen. The solution can help improve comfort, but it does not address the underlying cause. If symptoms persist, have your eyes, contact lenses and tear film assessed by a contact lens specialist, optician or ophthalmologist. Eye drops can be used as a supplement for extra moisturisation between uses. The most suitable solution depends on the cause and will be determined by the professional.

That depends on the packaging. The single 350 ml pack comes with a lens case, and the value pack containing three 350 ml bottles includes three lens cases. The 60 ml trial pack and the 100 ml travel pack are designed for trying the product and for use whilst travelling. A clean lens case is important for proper care: replace the case regularly and rinse it with fresh solution, not tap water. Individual lens cases are also available separately in the range of accessories. Choose the pack size based on the expected duration of use and demand in your practice.

Unica Sensitive is available in four pack sizes. The 60 ml trial pack and the 100 ml travel pack are ideal for introducing lens wearers to the solution or for use whilst travelling. The single 350 ml pack, which includes a lens case, and the value pack of three 350 ml bottles, which includes three lens cases, are designed for regular use. For a practice, this means you can cater to both new users and regular users with the same product. Choose the pack size based on the expected duration of use and demand at your practice.
