Primal Colored Contact Lenses

Wash your hands: Thoroughly wash your hands with soap and dry them with a lint-free towel to avoid transferring debris and bacteria to your lenses. Also, avoid using oil or lotion-based soaps, as they can leave residue on your hands that can transfer to your lenses.

Keep contact lenses away from moisture: Store your contact lenses in a clean and dry lens when not in use. Also, avoid keeping your lenses where they can be exposed to moisture. Moisture can cause bacterial growth, which leads to eye infections.

Properly clean your lenses: It is important to regularly clean and disinfect your contact lenses to remove dirt, debris, and bacteria that can accumulate over time. Follow the instructions provided by your eye doctor or the lens manufacturer for the proper cleaning and disinfection process.

Use prescribed lens solution: Use only the recommended contact lens solution to clean, rinse, and disinfect your contact lenses. NEVER use saliva or tap water to clean your contact lens.
Avoid expired solutions: Once the contact lens solution expires, it loses its disinfecting qualities and can not clean your contacts.

Follow recommended wear time: Never wear your contact lenses beyond the recommended duration, or sleep in them. Contact lenses create a barrier and reduce oxygen flow to your cornea.

Don't sleep in your contacts: Sleeping in contact lenses can increase the risk of eye infections and reduce the flow of oxygen by creating a later between the conjunctiva and cornea. Make sure to remove your lenses before bed and follow the recommended wearing time prescribed by your lens care professional.

Follow the replacement cycles: Regularly replace your old contacts and the lens case to avoid protein buildup. Many eye doctors recommend replacing your lens case along with your monthly contacts.

Never shower or swim with contacts: Water carries bacteria that will stick to your contact lenses and cause infections. Never swim or shower with your contacts because it will lead to bacterial infections.

Avoid defected contacts: Don't wear contacts if they are damaged, torn, or defected; Inspect the lenses thoroughly to avoid causing damage to your eyes.

Avoid contacts on red eyes: Don't wear contacts if your eyes are red, irritated or painful because they can further reduce the oxygen flow and negatively affect the irritation.

Never share your contacts: Sharing your contact lenses can lead to the transfer of bacterial infections and possible damage to your cornea.

Contacts before makeup: Wear your contact lenses before applying your makeup, hand cream, or face lotion to avoid transferring it to your hands. Also, remember to remove your contacts before you clean your makeup to avoid having those particles sticking to your lens.

Be prepared: Needless to say, you should always be prepared in case your contact lenses cause irritation, and you have to take them out. Carry a backup pair of glasses and lens rewetting drops for emergencies.

Follow up with your optometrist: Never forget that contact lenses are considered medical devices. Visit your optometrist regularly, even if you are not experiencing any problems. Maintaining optimal eye health is important, and your eye doctor can recommend proper care.
