Contact lens accessories

Proper contact lens accessories are an essential part of safe and correct contact lens care. They help you clean, handle and store your contact lenses hygienically and safely. Good contact lens hygiene always starts with clean hands. Wash your hands thoroughly with warm water and soap before handling your lenses. Hand sanitiser is not recommended, as residue left on your fingers may damage the lenses. The hand soap available from the Silmäasema online store is gentle on the skin, highly economical to use and also ideal for cleaning glasses. Your contact lens case should be replaced every time you open a new bottle of contact lens solution. Many contact lens solutions include a new case, but if your case becomes dirty or damaged, it should be replaced immediately. Never wash your contact lens case with tap water, as it may contain bacteria that could contaminate your lenses.
