Keys to Happy, Healthy Contact Lens Wear

Eyes need Oxygen
The front of the eye is one of the only areas in the body without blood supply. Yet these cells need OXYGEN!
We can increase oxygen to the eye by three simple techniques:
- Clean the lens thoroughly every night with a rubbing action to get the tears out, and the cleaner in the contact so it starts to clean the lens immediately.
- Give the eye a rest by wearing the glasses an hour a day to let the eye “catch up” on oxygen.
- Change the lens at the recommended time to decrease the "plugging up" effect of long term wear.

Bacteria and Fungal Growth
The eye is a great place for stuff to grow as it is warm, moist, and has a rich solution to grow in.
Here are a few steps for preventing infections:
- Clean your case weekly and replace every 3 months. If it looks like something you would NEVER touch to your tongue, NEVER let it or anything in it touch your eye either.
- Wash your hands before touching your eyes or contacts.
- Never soak your contacts in the same solution more than once.
- Never use tap water or salt water to clean or soak your lenses, and never let your lenses touch water. Air dry your case after washing or using.

Eye Injury
Injury to the eyes due to contact lens complications can be limited with proper training.
Here are a couple tips to protect your eyes:
- Leaving in the contact lenses in the eyes overnight is approved for some lenses. If your eye gets red the most likely problem is lack of oxygen, but infection is the other danger. Remove your contacts and see your doctor immediately.
- How do I remove a “stuck” contact lens? Put artificial tears or contact lens rewetting drops in the eye and let it soak before gently rubbing the closed eye and retrying. Often times the lens is already out and you are trying to remove a contact that is not there.
