Contact Lens Cleaning Procedure

Proper cleaning and disinfecting of your contact lenses after each removal are essential for safe and comfortable wear. You will need a clean towel, warm water, enzyme cleaner, a solution prescribed by your eye doctor, and a clean contact lens case. Always wash your hands thoroughly and dry them with a clean towel before handling your lenses.

Cleaning Procedure for RGP (Rigid Gas Permeable) Lenses

Place the right lens in the palm of your hand, apply a few drops of the cleaning solution, and gently rub it back and forth. Rinse with additional solution, rub gently again, and rinse once more. Store your lenses in a case filled with fresh solution. RGP lenses should be cleaned weekly with an enzyme cleaner. Never rinse RGP lenses with water or saliva.

Cleaning Procedure for Soft Lenses

Place the soft lens in the palm of your hand with a few drops of solution and rub for 30 seconds. Rinse with a multipurpose solution (MPS) or preserved saline. Avoid using water. Place the lens in a clean case and fill it with fresh solution—never “top off” old solution. Disinfecting kills microorganisms on the lens and maintains lens hygiene.

Protein Removal for Contact Lenses

Using an enzymatic cleaner weekly for contact lenses helps remove protein buildup on the lenses. Solutions designed for wetting, soaking, and cleaning often contain protein removal enzymes. Follow the directions on the packaging for best results and consistent lens clarity.

Disposable Soft Contact Lenses

Disposable contact lenses offer the benefit of regular replacement, available in options that need changing every fortnight, monthly, or quarterly, depending on the type. These lenses don’t require enzyme cleaning and allow wearers to enjoy the comfort of fresh lenses regularly, supporting optimal eye health and comfort.
