Colour Contact Lens Care Guide Singapore
Good contact lens care protects comfort and eye health. Follow the instructions for the exact lens and advice from an eye-care professional.
Handle lenses with clean, dry hands
Wash and dry your hands before touching lenses or your eyes. Keep fingernails and cosmetics from scratching or contaminating the lens surface.
Keep lenses away from tap water
Do not rinse or store contact lenses in tap water. Reusable lenses should be cleaned, disinfected and stored only with the products and method recommended for them.
Respect the replacement schedule
Do not extend a one-day, monthly or other replacement schedule beyond the product instructions. Replace the lens case and solution according to professional and manufacturer guidance.
Stop wear if your eyes become painful or red
Remove lenses and seek prompt eye-care advice if you develop pain, marked redness, light sensitivity, discharge, sudden blurred vision or persistent irritation.
