SOUTHERNSTAR Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 When I first came here I thought the same as the OP but after a while I changed my saying to - everything is available in Thailand but I sometimes don't know where to buy it and sometimes can't afford it, but it is here.

HeyNow Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 1 hour ago, dundas said: Wetting solution for hard contact lenses. Haven't looked lately, in fairness, I always bring ample supplies with me. By "wetting solution," do you mean rewetting drops? Or do you mean the disinfection solution? There are two places I know of that carry Boston Advance solutions. One's directly across from Suandok Hospital (Eye Smart? Smart Eyes?) and the other is an ophthalmology clinic on Chang Phuak Road, run by Dr. Napaporn Tananuwat. Up until this year, both places were reliable sources for said solutions. But this year, there's been some kind of problem with the importing of Boston products, and I've had to resort to other means of getting the solutions I need.

Several varieties used to be available from behind the counter at a certain burger restaurant in town, before the BIB caught up with the owner. That was a few years ago now.

[emoji20]In the UK places like Tesco, Boots and even Will sell a low cost wetting and soaking solution which is a lot cheaper than Boston I have had a good look around and not seen a similar product. I think the best bet is bringing a few bottles from UK and getting friends to bring when they visit. This is specifically for hard lenses.Sent from my Studio G HD LTE using Thailand Forum - Thaivisa mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tried to buy a $9 microwave popcorn bowl from Amazon, and all in it was going to be $58.00. I ended up ordering one from Lazada for $9 -delivered- and hedged that with one from AliExpress for about the same price- all in.
