"Among all lenses tested, Balafilcon A lenses exhibited greatest extracted cholesterol (4.1 to 8.2 μg/lens) and total protein (5.4 to 23.2 μg/lens). AQuify was the most effective solution in reducing extracted deposits, especially extracted protein, from Balafilcon A lenses. AQuify and Opti-Free RepleniSH solutions were most effective in reducing extracted cholesterol from Senofilcon A and Galyfilcon A lenses, respectively. Use of Opti-Free Express solution resulted in more extracted protein from Lotrafilcon B lenses than use of other solutions. Generally, Night & Day, Senofilcon A, and Galyfilcon A lenses accumulated relatively low amount of proteins. on Night & Day lenses accumulated the least amount of cholesterol deposit among all lenses tested regardless of solution used."
