    2. Non-preserved saline for insertion of scleral lenses
      1. Recommended brands: Nutrifill, LacriPure, Addipak, Purilens, ScleraFil, Sodium chloride inhalation solution
    3. 1 scleral DMV inserter (large suction cup)
    4. 1 small DMV remover (small suction cup)

    2. Thoroughly rinse your lenses with solution
    3. Place each lens in the correct side of the lens storage case and fill the chamber with the disinfectant solution
