wearing contact lenses
You can prevent getting infections by thouroughly washing your hands before touching your contacts, being sure not to touch any towels that have lint on them, (paper towels are fine), While your putting your contacts in make sure to not touch your face or your hair because of your body oils. Well, I hope this helped! Good Luck!
Since you are touching your eyes and things that go in your eyes,the risk of introducing infection is a little greater. Just be sure to wash your hands before you handle your contacts and after and change your solution each time.
Yes, theres a solution you can soak them in and you must wash your hands like it’s going out of style when putting them in and taking them out.
you must follow the cleaning technique for the type of lense you have to the letter. no half stepping on this. and ALWAYS wash and dry hands BEFORE touching eyes or lenses. i have been wearing lenses for about thirty years and never have problems. started out with the hard and now i have the soft
Infections are usually the product of not following the cleanliness and care directions, or by over wear. So, if you do just as the doctor tells you and follow all directions correctly, you will most likely have problem free contact lense wearing.
Only if you dont change youre lense solution and if you are not careful with the contacts meaning if you drop them on the floor and dont clean them. Just change the pair when the time is up and clean them as instructed by your eye doctor. Keep them sterile or clean at least. Wash your hands after each time you touch your eyes and after you take your contacts out. Use fresh solution everyday keep the case clean as well. Never share your contacts or let anyone touch them.
Nope. As long as you clean them you should be fine. I also sleep in mine for a week and have never had a problem. I have been doing this for about 12 years.
I wore contacts for 7 years and never had an infection. If you have good cleanliness habits, the likelihood of getting an infection is much less. I no longer wear contacts due to dry eye. In addition, my ophthalmologist (who used to wear contacts) has seen enough serious eye infections from contact lenses that if you have very problematic vision in one eye, he recommends no contacts at all to maintain the safety of your other eye.
