Taking proper care of contact lenses will ensure they last longer while minimizing your risk of eye infections. These easy steps will save you money by extending your non prescription colored contacts shelf life. With time these steps will become second nature.
It’s great wearing contact lenses. They don’t fog up or get full of dust or dirt like glasses and just usually require some rewetting drops part way through the day. There are times when you shouldn’t wear your contacts.
Be very careful picking up a fallen contact lens – especially if it has been there for a little while. It may be brittle and picking one up with your fingers could damage the lens or crack it. The best way to pick up a fallen contact lens is to slip a piece of paper underneath it and then carry over to where you can slide if off the sheet into some saline solution.
