Item & Brand Category Volume Qty Clinical Purpose
Sterile Unpreserved Saline Safety Protocol:

Scleral lenses maintain a direct continuous fluid reservoir over the compromised cornea. Preservative-free saline single-use vials are sealed sterile. Opening vials at security checkpoints compromises sterility and causes high risk of severe microbial keratitis. TSA officers are respectfully requested to screen vials non-invasively (bottle scanners, packaging X-ray, exterior swabs).

  1. Declare early: Before placing your bags on the belt, inform the TSA officer: "I have medically necessary liquids for an eye condition that exceed 3.4 ounces."
  2. Separate bin: Remove your saline vials, disinfection bottles, and lens cases from your carry-on luggage and place them into a separate bin.
  3. Keep original boxes: Whenever possible, carry unpreserved saline (e.g. ScleralFil, LacriPure, Nutrifill) in its original pharmacy packaging showing the sterile/medical label.
  4. Do not let officers open sterile vials: Explain politely that unpreserved saline is single-use and sterile. If opened, it must be discarded immediately. Request external swabs or bottled liquid scanners instead.
  5. Need assistance? Call TSA Cares at 1-855-787-2227 at least 72 hours prior to your flight to request a dedicated Passenger Support Specialist.
