Buy dry eye drops - for contact lens wearers who suffer from dry, itchy or red eyes.

I used to buy my dry eye drops direct from the US from AC Lens as it was cheaper than buying here in Cyprus even with the cost of postage. But they started to charge increased postage on all bottles of solution, so I now buy eye drops and solutions locally.
But I'm constantly checking for the best contact lens prices on the internet and, if you live in the US, AC Lens are consistently cheaper for my brand Acuvue than any other online optical retailer, including the giant 1800 Contacts. And guess what, they have the best eye drops prices too!
