Clear Care (Aosept) Contact Lens Solution on flights outside the US
 

I know that Clear Care (Aosept) contact lens solution is an issue with TSA in the US, but is it a problem in Europe? I am now wearing hybrid contact lenses and this is the solution my doctor has told me to use. I can use another solution like Optifree on rare occasions, but not for regular use. If I'm not traveling with checked bags, I am wondering if Clear Care (Aosept) will be an issue outside the USA if I have it in my carry-on. Anyone have any experience with this?

As long as it's in a bottle under 100mL, it's no problem*, though I've never had any issue with it in the US either. I've been refilling the same 100mL Clear Care bottle from my full-size bottle for quite some time now.

A quick search indicates that some people got it confiscated when it set off ETD machines, but I've never had that experience, and I travel quite a bit in Europe now and used to travel a lot in the US.

*edit in response to mod comment: it's no problem in Europe; I've been through security in most of the countries of Western Europe and the only time it's ever gotten a second look was when a security staffer at MAN gave it a quick glance to see the "100mL" marking on the bottle.

I bought a travel size bottle of Clear Care peroxide solution at HND last year, and had no trouble at all with the security checkpoints.
