Healthy Wear Continued

Listen to your eyes

  • Never wear lenses if your eye is red or painful.
  • If a lens becomes uncomfortable or a stinging sensation occurs when it is inserted, remove it. Rinse thoroughly with a recommended rinsing solution and insert again.
  • If the discomfort persists, remove the lens immediately and consult your eye care professional.

Get organized

  • Have a well-lit mirror handy to help locate a lens "lost" in your eye.
  • Develop the habit of always working with one lens first to avoid mixing up left and right.
  • If you have trouble telling your right lens from your left, your practitioner may be able to mark one with a small dot.
  • To avoid a potentially serious mistake, don't store your contact lens supplies with medications or other cleaners.
  • Make sure you always have an ample supply of lens care products on hand.
  • Never store lenses in tap or distilled water.
  • Use only the case specifically provided for lens storage.

Finally

Don't count on your contacts for eye protection. Wear safety glasses any time your eyes might be at risk
