Contact lenses have to be prescribed by a qualified optician even if the wearer does not have problems with his or her vision. This comes after thorough eye examination to assess for hyperopia, myopia, astigmatism and the general health of your eyes. The visual strength is tested before Sacramento contact lenses are prescribed.
When wearing them, hand washing comes first. The hands have to be dried after washing. Using the dominant hand the lens is held at the tip using the pointer finger and then the middle finger is used to pull down the lower eyelid.
The pointer finger of the less dominant hand is used in elevating the anterior eyelid. The lens is then slid gently onto the sclera while you are looking up. The fingers are then removed and the eyelids let go. Centering of lens is facilitated by closing the eyes for a moment. The same procedure is used when inserting the second lens.
The process of taking them off starts with washing the hands too. They should be thoroughly dried thereafter. You should then look up and pull down the lower lid using the middle finger of the dominant hand. The index finger is then used to access the lenses on the lower part. It is then slid down the sclera and squeezed between the thumb and pointer finger. Be careful during the removal process.
The disposable ones are thrown away after a single use. Using them eliminates the need for constant cleaning and storage. However, these processes are not as hard as they are made to sound. As long as you follow the instructions given by the optician, everything will just go smoothly. There are specially made solutions for rinsing, disinfecting, protein removal and conditioning the lenses.

After doing all this, you can go ahead and put on lens again. If you notice any remaining debris, just rinse them before inserting them into the eyes.
If they are not in use, they must be kept in specially made cases for safety purposes. They should never be soaked in a saline solution. This does not result to disinfection. The cases may remain closed for a period of thirty days if they are not in use. However, beyond this, they have to be cleaned and disinfected before insertion.
