• Thoroughly wash, rinse and dry your hands before inserting or removing your lenses.
• Clean and disinfect one lens at a time to avoid mixing up left and right lenses.
• Work over a clean surface; if working over a sink, ensure the sink plug is in.
• Handle your lenses with your finger tips, avoiding any contact with fingernails.
• Rub the lens in a gentle back and forth movement (linear) rather than a circular motion.
• If you wear make-up, apply it after inserting your lenses.
• Soft contact lenses and the contact lens case should be suitable replacement period for you.
• Try to see your eye care professional at least twice a year or as per his recommendation. Make sure you keep your aftercare appointment.

Be sure thelens is right-side-out (the edges should turn up, not out).Pull down the lower lid with the middle or ring finger of the same hand. Use you other hand to hold the upper lid firmly open.Look directly at the lens or look directly into a mirror and place the lens directly on the cornea (the large colored circle in the centre of your eye). Repeat for the other eye.

Look up and pull the lower lid down with the middle finger of the hand you write with.Place your index finger on the lower edge of your lens, and slide the lens down to the white of your eye.Squeeze the lens lightly between your index finger and thumb and remove gently.Repeat for the other eye.

Staring at a monitor reduces the number of times you blink by up to 50%! This can cause the surface of your lenses to become dry, making your eyes feel uncomfortable and your vision less clear.Many people find it difficult to focus properly after long stretches in front of the computer. Others may experience tearing and itchy or dry eyes. To avoid these problems, just remember the 20/20/20 rule: Every 20 minutes, rest your eyes for 20 seconds by staring intently at an object at least 20 feet away. To get relief, you can either add artificial tear drops or apply warm eye pads to encourage your eyes to generate more tears.

Make sure you're not seated too close to your screen. If your fingers can easily touch the monitor when you are seated, you are probably too close. Try the 1/3 method to calculate the right distance: move away from the monitor until you cannot see the images on the screen clearly, then divide that distance by 3 and you should get your ideal distance.

Avoid having a light source directly in front or behind you. If your computer is near a window, use a screen filter to reduce any harmful glare.

If you need to refer to documents, hold them up at eye-level. This will help reduce eye fatigue as you won't have to focus on two different distances for an extended period of time.
