Contact lenses

Caring for your contact lenses

Clean hands, fresh solution and sticking to the replacement schedule keep contact lens wear safe and comfortable.

Always wash and dry your hands before touching your lenses. Never rinse lenses or the case with tap water, and replace the solution in the case every time; topping it up lets bacteria build up.

Replace lenses on the schedule your optometrist gave you, even if they still feel fine. Take them out before sleeping unless your lenses are approved for overnight wear, and see us straight away if an eye becomes red, painful or sensitive to light.
