Contact lens care

If you are still new to wearing contact leneses, it is very important to know how to take care of them to prevent possible risk of eye infection. Information about contact lenses is becoming more available to everyone and all that is needed to do is to follow the instructions.

As online contact lenses provider we recommend firstly to have examination before any use of contact lenses. Second, not to over-use the lenses which varies from different types of lenses. Daily lenses are the healtiest type of lenses because they are replaced daily and reduce the risk of infection. At all times lenses have to be clean and replaced regularly (according with their period of usage). In any case, do not use damaged lenses.

It's also important to always wash your hands when in contact with eyes and lenses not to transfer germs or bakteria on te lense. Make sure your hands are dry when you are in contact with them. When they are not in the eye they always have to be in the recommened solution. When it comes to solutions, don't use old expired solutions and don't put them to smaller bottles if you are travelling because it is also another way to get contaminated if the bottle is not sterile. Never put them into water because they will get contaminated.

We, eOptiikka also advise not to be in enviroment that is bad for contact lenses such as smoked areas. It can iritate the eye and the lenses.
