Acuvue oasys with transitions contacts adverse effect when used in conjunction with hydrogen peroxide-based contact solution: patient recently began using acuvue oasys with transitions contacts.However, after a few uses, patient began experiencing worsening bilateral, cloudy, opaque vision that would develop while wearing the contacts.Per patient, symptoms remained for hours after removal of the contacts with the duration and severity of symptoms directly correlating with the length of time contacts were worn throughout the day.Patient was given two different sample sets of the contacts.Symptoms occurred with both sets of sample contacts as well as pairs from boxes purchased from (b)(6).Similar symptoms occurred with each set of contacts (different manufacture dates/sets).Eventually, we realized that the symptoms would begin after use of hydrogen peroxide based contact solution (clear care).After use of clear care, the symptoms would continue to occur despite switching to regular multipurpose contact solution.With further pairs of contacts, we switched strictly to use of regular multipurpose contact solution without recurrence of symptoms.There appears to be a correlation with use of these specific contacts and hydrogen peroxide-based contact solution as these symptoms occurred bilaterally and consistently with 3 separate pairs of sample contacts.No recurrence of symptoms with use of at least 3 other sets of the transition contacts.
