• Do wash and rinse your hands before handling your lenses. A non-perfumed hand soap is preferred.

• Do clean, rinse and air dry your lens case. Contact lens cases can be a source of bacteria growth. Lens cases should be cleaned, rinsed, and allowed to air dry each time the lenses are removed. Replace the lens case often.

• Do clean, rinse and disinfect your soft lenses if they have been stored for longer than 12 hours. Consult product literature or your eye care professional for specific instructions.

• Do see your eye care professional every six months -- or more frequently, if recommended.

• Do replace your contact lenses regularly because they wear out with time.

DON'T:

• Don't wear your lenses beyond the prescribed wearing time. For example, don't wear your daily wear lenses while sleeping or keep your disposable lenses longer than prescribed.

• Don't use saliva to wet your lenses.

• Don't use unsterile home-prepared saline, distilled water or tap water for any part of your lens-care regimen.

• Don't allow your lenses to come into contact with cosmetic lotions, creams or sprays. It's best to insert your lenses before putting on make up and to remove them before cleansing your face. Water-based cosmetics are less likely to damage your lenses than oil-based products.

• Don't change your lens care regimen or solutions without consulting your eye care professional.
