How to Clean and Store Colored Contacts: A Step-by-Step Tutorial

by CHUMINGMING 12 Feb 2025

Step 1: Wash Your Hands Thoroughly

Before you even think about touching your colored contacts, it's essential to wash your hands. This is the first and most crucial step in preventing the transfer of germs and bacteria to your lenses.
  • Use Antibacterial Soap: Grab a mild, antibacterial soap. Avoid using heavily scented soaps as the fragrance can sometimes irritate your eyes if it gets on the lenses.
  • Wash for at Least 20 Seconds: Rub your hands together, making sure to clean between your fingers, under your nails, and on the backs of your hands. Sing the "Happy Birthday" song twice in your head to ensure you've washed for an adequate amount of time.
  • Dry with a Lint - Free Towel: Pat your hands dry with a clean, lint - free towel. Paper towels can leave behind tiny fibers that may stick to your lenses.

Step 2: Remove Your Colored Contacts

If you're new to wearing colored contacts, removing them can seem a bit daunting at first. But with a little practice, it becomes second nature.
  • Look Up: Gently pull down your lower eyelid with your non - dominant hand.
  • Use Your Index Finger: Place your index finger of your dominant hand on the outer edge of the lens. Gently slide the lens down onto the white part of your eye (the sclera).
  • Pinch the Lens: Once the lens is on the sclera, use your thumb and index finger to gently pinch the lens and remove it from your eye.

Step 3: Cleaning Your Colored Contacts

Cleaning your colored contacts properly is vital for maintaining their quality and ensuring your eye health.
  • Rubbing the Lenses:
    • Place a few drops of contact lens cleaning solution on one side of the lens.
    • Using your index finger, gently rub the lens in a circular motion for about 10 - 15 seconds. Make sure to cover the entire surface of the lens.
    • Flip the lens over and repeat the process on the other side.
  • Rinsing the Lenses: After rubbing, rinse the lens thoroughly with the same cleaning solution. Hold the lens over the sink (but be careful not to drop it!) and let the solution flow over the lens to remove any loosened debris or cleaning solution residue.

Step 4: Storing Your Colored Contacts

Storing your colored contacts correctly when they're not in use is just as important as cleaning them.
  • Clean the Contact Lens Case: Empty the old solution from the case. Wash the case with warm, soapy water, making sure to clean all the nooks and crannies. Rinse the case thoroughly with warm water and let it air - dry.
  • Fill the Case with Fresh Solution: Once the case is dry, fill each side of the case with fresh contact lens storage solution. Again, our [Your Store's Storage Solution Name] is an excellent choice.
  • Insert the Cleaned Lenses: Carefully place each cleaned lens into its respective side of the case. Make sure the lens is fully submerged in the solution.
  • Close the Case Tightly: Seal the contact lens case tightly to prevent the solution from evaporating and to keep out any dust or contaminants.

FAQs about Cleaning and Storing Colored Contacts

  • Q: Can I use tap water to clean my colored contacts?
    • A: Absolutely not. Tap water contains bacteria and other microorganisms that can cause serious eye infections. Always use a proper contact lens cleaning and storage solution.
  • Q: How often should I replace my contact lens case?
    • A: It's recommended to replace your contact lens case every 1 - 3 months. Over time, the case can harbor bacteria, even with regular cleaning.
  • Q: Can I use the same solution for cleaning and storing my colored contacts?
    • A: Most multi - purpose contact lens solutions can be used for both cleaning and storing. However, always check the product label to be sure. Our [Your Store's Solution Name] is a multi - purpose solution that is suitable for both tasks.

Lorem Ipsumとは何ですか? Lorem Ipsum は、印刷および植字業界のダミー テキストです。Lorem Ipsum は、1500 年代に無名の印刷業者が活字の校正刷りを組み替えてタイプ サンプル帳を作ったときから、業界の標準ダミー テキストとなっています。5 世紀もの間生き延びただけでなく、電子植字への飛躍も生き延び、基本的に変わることなく生き延びています。1960 年代に Lorem Ipsum の文章を含む Letraset シートがリリースされ、さらに最近では、Lorem Ipsum のバージョンを含む Aldus PageMaker などのデスクトップ パブリッシング ソフトウェアによって普及しました。 なぜそれを使用するのでしょうか? 読者がページのレイアウトを見ているときに、読みやすいコンテンツに気を取られてしまうことは、長い間確立された事実です。Lorem Ipsum を使用するポイントは、文字の分布がほぼ正規分布であり、「コンテンツはここ、コンテンツはここ」という使用法とは対照的であるため、読みやすい英語のように見えることです。現在、多くのデスクトップ パブリッシング パッケージと Web ページ エディターは、デフォルトのモデル テキストとして Lorem Ipsum を使用しており、「lorem ipsum」を検索すると、まだ初期段階の Web サイトが多数見つかります。さまざまなバージョンが長年にわたって進化してきましたが、偶然の場合もあれば、意図的に (ユーモアなどを挿入して) 進化した場合もあります。
