Tangible Hydra-PEG is available at almost every contact lens manufacturing lab in the US and some outside the US. It is applied to your lenses when they are being manufactured. Speak with your practitioner and make sure they request Hydra-PEG with your next lens order. 

The following contact lens care solutions will not damage the Tangible Hydra-PEG coating: Tangible Clean, Boston Simplus, Unique PH, Clear CareClear, and Care with Hydra-Glyde. Any care solutions not listed above should be considered incompatible with the Tangible Hydra-PEG coating and will run the risk of damaging or destroying the coating.

While the coating is permanently bonded to lenses and designed to last for their lifetime, various factors may impact the durability of its benefits including: A patient’s tear composition (i.e. heavy depositors), use of incompatible cleansers or rewetting drops, vigorous rubbing of lenses during cleaning, use of tap water, storing lenses dry or without compatible solution. The use of compatible solutions like Tangible Clean will ensure that you are not using an incompatible cleaner. Monthly use of Tangible Boost will also restore the Tangible Hydra-PEG coating, protecting your coated lenses from normal wear.

Hydra-PEG coated lenses must be stored wet using one of the compatible multi-purpose solutions. It is important to remember to change the storage solution every 30 days and to be mindful of the expiration date of the solution. Each time you change the solution, clean the case as well. This is for ANY of the solutions you choose from the approved list.
