Getting the OmniPod off

I found a really simple way to get it off.


Okay, so, i wear contacts, which means i have a ton of saline solution laying around the house. One day i decided instead of using an alcohol swab, i'd just put some of that on the pad (i seperate that pod from the pad before i take the pad off), and then pull it off.

Came off with no problem at all. Hardly felt it pull anything. :D

You can get two huge bottle of the stuff from Target for like $10, so i'm sold on it.

Saline solution works well?? That is a clever idea, Thanks for sharing.

Domo - If I try and rip it off, several layers of my skin usually come with it :frowning:

I use Uni-solve and it’s great for getting the gunk to unstick, but it takes a great deal of scrubbing and pulling to get the residue off. I wear dailies so I don’t keep saline around, but I sure could start.

Baby oil works wonders! :smiley:

Always comes off right away, no pain. Cheap too!
