may be prescribed in a frequent replacement program and should be thrown away after the recommended wearing 
period prescribed by your eyecare practitioner. 

 
 

LENS DEPOSITS AND USE OF ENZYMATIC CLEANER: 

 

Enzyme cleaning may be recommended by your eyecare practitioner.  Enzyme cleaning removes protein deposits on 
the lens.  These deposits cannot be removed with regular cleaners.  Removing protein deposits is important for the well-
being of your lens and eyes.  If these deposits are not removed, they can damage the lens and cause irritation.  Enzyme 
cleaning does NOT replace routine cleaning and disinfecting.  For enzyme cleaning, you should carefully follow the 
instructions in the enzymatic cleaning labeling. 

 
 

Lens Case Cleaning and Maintenance: 

 

Contact lens cases can be a source of bacteria growth.  After removing the lens from the case, empty and rinse the lens 
storage case with solution as recommended by the lens case manufacturer; then allow the lens case to air dry.  When 
the case is used again, refill it with storage solution.  Replace lens case at regular intervals as recommended by the lens 
case manufacturer or your eyecare practitioner. 

 
 

Care for a Sticking (non-moving) Lens: 

 

 

If the lens  sticks (cannot be removed),  you should apply 3 to 4 drops of the recommended lubricating or rewetting 
solution directly to the eye and wait until the lens begins to move freely on the eye before removing it.  If non-movement 
of the lens continues after 15 minutes, you should IMMEDIATELY consult your eyecare practitioner. 

 
 

Care for a Dried out (dehydrated) dry Lens: 

 

If for some reason your lenses dry out completely:  a minimum of handling is important as they are very brittle in the 
dehydrated state.  Carefully place them in rinsing or storage solution for a minimum of thirty minutes during which time 
they will become soft and flexible.  Then follow the cleaning, rinsing, and disinfecting procedures, including soaking 
the lens in storage and disinfection solution for four hours before wearing again. 

 
 

Chemical (NOT HEAT) Disinfection: 

 

 

1.  Wash and rinse your hands thoroughly BEFORE HANDLING LENS. 

 

 

2.  After removal of lens, CLEAN the lens by applying three drops of cleaner to each surface.  Then rub the lens 

between your fingers for 20 seconds. 

 

 

3.  AFTER CLEANING, thoroughly rinse both surfaces of the lens with a steady stream of fresh, sterile rinsing 

solution for approximately 10 seconds.
