If the problem continues, you SHOULD NOT put a lens back on your eye but IMMEDIATELY CONSULT
YOUR EYE CARE PROFESSIONAL.

1. Preparing the Lens for Wearing
It is essential that you learn and use good hygienic methods in the care and handling of your new lenses.
Cleanliness is the first and most important aspect of proper contact lens care. In particular, your hands
should be clean and free of any foreign substances when you handle your lenses. The procedures are:
•
Always wash your hands thoroughly with a mild soap, rinse completely and dry with a lint-free towel
before touching your lenses.
•
Avoid the use of soaps containing cold cream, lotion or oily cosmetics before handling your lenses,
since these substances may come into contact with the lenses and interfere with successful wearing.
•
Handle your lenses with your fingertips, and be careful to avoid contact with fingernails. It is helpful
to keep your fingernails short and smooth.
Start off correctly by getting into the habit of always using proper hygienic procedures so that they become
automatic.
2. The Multipack and Lens Package
Multipack
Each multipack contains individually packaged lenses. Each lens comes in its own lens package
designed specifically to maintain sterility. You may choose to keep your lenses inside the multipack for
storage until you are ready to use them.
Lens Package
To open an individual lens package, follow these simple steps:
1. Shake the lens package and check to see that the lens is floating in the solution.
2. Peel back the foil closure to reveal the lens. By stabilizing the lens package on the tabletop, you will
minimize the possibility of a sudden splash.
