Improve Your Contact Cleaning Habits
If you wear contact lenses, you already know how these tiny vision aids can transform your daily life. But did you know that poor contact lens hygiene is one of the leading causes of eye infections? 

At Oculus Curae, we believe your eye health deserves the best care. With our premium range of products, including the Aqua Naina Sterile Saline Solution and Hyalunix Multi-Purpose Solution, we’re here to help you maintain crystal-clear vision while keeping your eyes safe and healthy.

Proper Contact Cleaning is Essential

Contact lenses are in constant contact with your eyes, one of the most sensitive organs in your body. Without proper cleaning and storage, lenses can harbor harmful microorganisms like bacteria and fungi, leading to serious eye infections, discomfort, and even long-term vision problems. 

Adopting better cleaning habits isn’t just about protecting your vision – it’s about enhancing your comfort and confidence daily.

6 Tips to Improve Your Contact Lens Cleaning Routine 

Wash Your Hands Thoroughly

Before touching your lenses, always wash your hands with soap and water. Dry them with a lint-free towel to avoid transferring any debris to your lenses.

Use High-Quality Contact Cleaning Solutions

The contact cleaning solutions you choose matters. Our Aqua Naina Sterile Saline Solution offers a preservative-free formula that mimics the natural pH of your tears. It’s perfect for rinsing your lenses and maintaining optimal hygiene. 

For cleaning and disinfecting, our Hyalunix Multi-Purpose Solution effectively removes protein deposits while adjusting to your eyes’ natural tear pH, ensuring comfort throughout the day.

Discard Leftover Solution

Never "top off" used (old) solution in your lens case. Always discard any leftover solution after each use and replace it with fresh solution to prevent contamination.

Clean Your Lens Case Regularly

Bacteria can thrive in your lens case if it’s not cleaned properly. To maintain hygiene, rinse it daily with a fresh solution, not water, and allow it to air dry. Replace your case every three months.

Follow Proper Soaking Guidelines

Contact lenses need adequate soaking time to disinfect. With Hyalunix Multi-Purpose Solution, ensure your lenses soak for at least six hours before wearing them. This ensures thorough cleaning and prevents eye irritation.

Avoid Water Contact

Never rinse your lenses or lens case with tap water, as it can introduce harmful microorganisms. Stick to sterile solutions like Aqua Naina for optimal safety.
