can cause a tear.

I complained to my eye doctor and she told me that she had done research
and found that I was hardly alone! Many others are apparently having similar problems. In fact, she said that they, Proclear, may have lowered the quality of the lenses, probably to increase their profit margin.

The bottom line is as they're selling a product that is not functioning as advertised -- it's supposed to last 30 days, after all! -- it's bordering on fraud.

I would look at other brands moving forward. I certainly am!
I did a Google search for "Proclear Compatibles rip" and here are some of the results:

"Proclear rip apart way too easily."

" . . . they rip...a lot."

"Cons: very thin, easy to rip lens."

" . . . the major problem is that THEY RIP EASILY."
