For all those contact lens wearers out there, and also for any aspiring contact lens wearers, here are some important steps to take before inserting and removing your lenses.

ALWAYS wash your hands with soap and water, then dry them well with a paper towel. Do not let any water get in contact with your lenses.

Set up the area were you are going to put on your lenses. If you are wearing your lenses over a sink, make sure you close this with a sink plug, so you will not lose any lens if it falls.

If you are wearing daily contact lenses like Dailies Aquacomfort Plus or Dailies Total 1, you can open the lens pack and insert (as easy as that), and for monthly Lenses, such as Air Optix or bi-weekly lenses like Acuvue 2 or  Oasys, open your lens case and insert the lenses.
