At Beckenham Optometrist, our team is dedicated to giving you the best chance to see clearly and comfortability, that is why contact lenses are such a popular choice for many of our patients. To make the change to contact lenses a little easier we have developed a list of top tips to wearing contact lenses with the help of our trusted contact lens supplier Cooper Vision.
10 Daily tips for contact lens wearers
-
Always wash your hands before dealing with your contact lenses
-
Check your lenses to ensure they are not torn, scratched or otherwise damaged before you put them in
-
Start with the same eye every time before you put your lenses in or take them out
-
Use a lense case that has been clearly marked with ‘R’ for right eye and ‘L’ for left eye to make sure they are not mixed up
-
Always use appropriate contact lens solution to wash, disinfect, clean and store your lenses. Never use water
-
Remember to clean and disinfect your contact lenses before you put them away.
-
Not all contact lenses are recommended for overnight use, please consult our team to find out your personalised wearing schedule

Never wear your contact lenses for more than your health care professional has recommended
