Set-up for BostonSight PROSE Device Application

You will need a soft towel to be placed on top of a clean work surface where you will apply

your device(s).

You will need the following supplies:

• An application plunger

• A removal plunger

• A small mirror

• Preservative-free saline, prescribed for you

Prescribed Preservative-Free Saline Protocol

• Saline must be sterile and non-preserved, and prescribed for you by your doctor. Under no

circumstance should tap water ever be used for rinsing or filling.

• Purilens Plus is a chemical and preservative-free saline solution buffered with boric acid

and sodium borate. When using PuriLens Plus, only bottles that have been opened for

less than 48 hours should be used to fill your device. Marking the date on the bottle will

help remind you when it is time to throw the bottle away.

• You may rinse your device with PuriLens Plus that has been opened for as long as two

weeks. After two weeks, any remaining saline solution MUST be discarded.

• Sodium chloride 0.9% comes in boxes of 100 vials. Vials are 3, 5 or 10 mL, and are man-

ufactured for inhalation use in a nebulizer. It is equivalent to PuriLens Plus, except that it is

not buffered. We recommend asking your BostonSight doctor for a sample to try first. This

is to ensure that it does not cause any ocular irritation. Each single-use vial must be

disposed of immediately after use.

• ScleralFil by Bausch & Lomb is a sterile, buffered isotonic saline solution.

Each carton contains 30 single-use 10ml vials. It is available online at

http://www.bauschsvpstore.com and https:// dryeyeshop.com/

• LacriPure, an unbuffered preservative-free saline, available as 5ml single-use vials in a

98-count box. It is available online at https://dryeyeshop.com and

https://store.meniconamerica.com

• Bausch and Lomb Sensitive Eyes Plus Saline Solution or Clear Care Rinse & Go, can be

used for rinsing only. This solution contains preservatives and should not, under

any circumstances, be used to fill prosthetic devices used in PROSE treatment. Also, if

using this solution for rinsing, the prosthetic devices must be thoroughly rinsed with

preservative-free saline, prescribed for you, prior to application.

• Nutrifill is a preservative-free, buffered saline with natural electrolytes. It comes in a box of

35 10mL ampoules. It is available at http://www.nutrifill.com, http://www.dryeyeshop.com,

and http://www.myeyesupply.com.
