Making the Most of Your PRECISION1™ Lenses

 

Expert tips and contact lens hacks to help you power 
through from morning to night.

Friendly Contact Lens Tips

  • Kickstart your day with good vibes! Get into the habit of putting your contact lenses in when you’re getting ready in the morning.

  • Throw a backup pair of contact lenses into your bag before you leave every day. Just in case you’re staying over at a friend’s!

  • If things don’t feel or look right at any point during your trial, your eye care professional will be happy to help. Just give them a call.

1. Always wash your hands

Clean your hands with soap, then dry your hands with a clean, lint-free towel.

2. Create a routine

Like shoes, your contacts have a left and a right – so try to stick to the same routine, where you do the same eye first and the other second.

3. Remember the order

Wear your lenses before applying makeup and remove them before taking off makeup. Be careful when using cosmetics, lotions, and soap as they may cause irritation if they come into contact with your eyes.

4. Blink three times

Once your lens is applied, remember to blink two or three times as it helps to settle the lens and make you feel like everything is in the right place.

1. Make it bright

Stand in front of well-lit mirror or in bright bathroom to make it easier for you to see and remove your contact lenses.

2. Rewet your eyes

Rewetting drops can make it easier to lift the lens from your eye. Add one or two drops before starting.

3. Keeping eyes open

To make removal easy, hold your eyelids open by pulling your upper eyelid up and lower eyelid down with your middle fingers.
