How to Properly Care for Color Contact Lenses

Caring for cosmetic contact lenses demands the same diligence as prescription lenses, and sometimes even greater attention.

The first step in caring for your color contacts is always washing your hands thoroughly with soap and water before handling them.

Always dry your hands using a fresh, non-shedding towel to keep microfibers and particles away from your lenses.

Never use tap water, saliva, or any non-sterile solution to clean or store your lenses.

Only use the contact lens solution recommended by your eye care professional.

Even if the solution says it is for rinsing, always store your lenses in fresh solution overnight.

Never top off old solution—it creates a breeding ground for harmful bacteria and fungi.

Make it a habit to clean your lenses each and every time you remove them from your eyes.

Gently rub each lens with solution between your fingers for about 20 seconds, even if you are using a no-rub solution.

Regular rubbing prevents accumulation of gunk that clouds vision and degrades lens material over time.

Always rinse lenses with fresh solution before storing them in a case that’s been freshly filled.

Your lens case should be cleaned daily.

Rinse your case exclusively with approved solution, then leave it open and upside down on a lint-free towel to air-dry.

Replace your case every three months or sooner if it shows signs of wear or discoloration.

A dirty case is one of the most common sources of contamination.

Avoid wearing your color contacts for longer than the recommended time.

Daily lenses are designed for single use only—never attempt to clean or rewear them.

Do not stretch the life of monthly or bi-weekly lenses beyond their designated replacement window.

Never sleep in contacts unless they are explicitly labeled for continuous wear—otherwise, you risk hypoxia and infection.

If your lenses feel gritty, appear hazy, or trigger eye redness or stinging, take them out right away.

Do not try to clean and reuse them if they are damaged or if your eyes are irritated.

Always consult your eye care provider if you have any concerns.

Under no circumstances should you lend or borrow color contact lenses—even with good intentions.

What appears spotless may harbor dangerous microorganisms capable of triggering blindness-level infections.
