If you wear contact lenses you need to understand lens care: If You Don't take care of your contact lenses properly, your contact lenses can cause your eyes to a variety of eye infections, including some that cause blindness.
Before you get started to wear contact lenses, you should know what steps are required to care for soft contact lenses.
The Basics of Soft Contact Lens Care: Clean, Rinse and Disinfect.
1. Wash your hands so that you don't transfer dirt and germs to your eye. Try to avoid moisturizing soaps, as they are not good for contact lenses. Dry your hands with a lint-free towel.
2. Remove one lens and clean it with the recommended solution. Cleaning removes eye-produced buildup, cosmetics and other debris that impairs lens comfort. The FDA recommends that you rub the lens in the palm of your hand with a few drops of solution, even if you are using a "no-rub" product.
3. Rinse the lens again to remove the loosened debris, making sure to take as long as the package directs: Rinsing is an important step.

5. Repeat steps two through four for your other lens.
