Contact Lens Tips
Here are our best contact lens care tips to get you started and on the road to falling in love with your new PRECISION™ contact lenses. You got this!
Three Things to Remember
Get in the habit of putting in your contact lenses when you’re getting ready in the morning. Every day gets easier.
Carry a spare pair of contact lenses while you get into the swing of things. You never know what might happen, ya know?

Daily disposable Contact Lenses
With daily disposable contact lenses, there’s no need for lens care. Simply put in a fresh pair in the morning and toss them out at night. Then, start the next day with a fresh new pair.
This would be followed by instructions, like we have below, on how to put contacts in.
Weekly replacement Contact Lenses
With weekly replacement contact lenses, you'll need to regularly clean, disinfect, and store them before bed in contact lens solution.
Replace them each week with a fresh new pair, or as directed by your Eye Care Practitioner.
How to Put Contacts In
Step 1
Wash, rinse and dry your hands thoroughly.
Step 2
Place the lens on the tip of your index finger.
Step 3
Make sure it’s curved like a bowl. If the ends are flaring like a bell, it’s inside out.
Step 4
Slowly move the lens toward your eye.
Step 5
Use the middle finger of your opposite hand to pull your upper eyelid up, and the middle finger of your other hand to pull your lower eyelid down.
Step 6
Carefully place the lens on your eye.
Step 7
Blink a few times to help the lens settle into place.
Step 8
Slowly move the lens toward your eye.
How to Take Contacts Out
Step 1
Wash, rinse and dry your hands thoroughly.
Step 2
Pull your upper eyelid up and lower eyelid down with your middle fingers.
Step 3
Use your index finger to slide the lens to the lower part of your eye.
Step 4
Pinch the lens between your fingers and remove it from your eye. Repeat for your other eye.

Store in Clean Case
Place each lens in its designated compartment of your clean contact lens case. Fill the compartments with fresh contact lens solution—make sure each lens is fully submerged.
