You should be aware of and fully discuss with your eye
care professional the following warnings pertaining to
contact lens wear:
• Problems with contact lenses could result in
serious
injury
to your eye. It is essential that you follow
your eye care professional’s direction and all labeling
instructions for proper use of lenses. Eye problems,
including corneal ulcers, can develop rapidly and
lead to
loss of vision.
• Daily wear lenses are not indicated for overnight
wear, and
you should not wear lenses while
sleeping.
Clinical studies have shown that the risk
of serious adverse reactions is increased when daily
wear lenses are worn overnight.
• Strict compliance with your wearing restrictions,
wearing schedule, and follow-up visit schedule
should be followed.
• Studies have shown that contact lens wearers who
are smokers have a higher incidence of adverse
reactions than nonsmokers.
• If you experience eye discomfort, excessive tearing,
vision changes, or redness of the eye, you should
immediately remove lenses
and promptly contact
your eye care professional.
Warnings
Check-Up Visits
Regular check-up examinations by your eye care professional are an important part of wearing
contact lenses. It is recommended that you follow your eye care professional’s directions for follow
up examinations. Keep all appointments for your check-up visits. If you move to a new city, ask
your present eye care professional to refer you to a contact lens professional in your new location.
