i wear contacts so i have to use it - and im a little germ-phobic sense ive had an IGA defficieny all my life.. i like to use off-brands like rite-aid because purells smell make smell gag and it has too many additives.

should i worry about it, sense it contains alcohol and stuff, and if so is there a gluten-free kind?

I am not sure why you have to use hand sanitizer at all. My daughter wears contact lenses, and she washes her hands with soap (gluten-free) and water before handling her contacts. Hand sanitizer only kills germs, it doesn't clean your hands.

but that didnt answer my question.
