It was studied how using soft contact lens multi-purpose solution (MPS), often used for medical treatment, effects the inhibition on cell growth, and how using the MPS demages eye cells, on rabbit eye's corneal epithelium and endothelium tissue. $ReNu^{(R)}$ (Baush & Lomb, USA), Opti-free $express^{(R)}$ (Alcon, USA), Free-sol $plus^{(R)}$ (Hanamedicon, Korea) were used as MPS. After culturing Clone 1-5C-4 cell lines (Human conjunctival cell lines), cell growth inhibition rate was measured by MIT assay. By making Hematoxylin and Eosin stain specimen, the morphology was observed by optical microscope. In the In vivo experiment, 9 white rabbit eyes (18 eyes) were classified into 3 groups. The experiment group is left eyes (9 eyes) of rabbit, and MPS were dropped; however the control group, the right eyes (9 eyes), were only used a saline solution without a preservatives. After the dropping within the period, the cornea surface of rabbit endothelium tissue was observed using scanning electron microscopy (SEM).
