How to store contact lenses

Contact lenses are a necessity in many people's daily lives. In life, they not only help us relieve the inconvenience caused by myopia or hyperopia, but also bring more confidence and beauty to the wearer.

How to store contact lenses?

(1) Whether it is hard or soft contact lenses, the principles of maintenance are basically the same. After removing the lenses, the first thing to do is to clean them to prevent the lenses from being infected by bacteria and microorganisms and causing eye diseases.

(2) Hard contact lenses can be stored in a small contact lens box and kept dry.

(3) Soft contact lenses need to be soaked in a care solution (specially for contact lenses, available at pharmacies or optical shops) and placed in a small box specifically for contact lenses. The care solution in the box must be replaced promptly every day to prevent the care solution from drying out.

(4) If you are not going to wear your contact lenses for a while, it is best to change the contact lens solution frequently, preferably every three days.

(5) If the two glasses have different prescriptions, be sure to remember which box each lens is in (i.e. left or right) to avoid discomfort the next time you wear them.
