Correct contact lens wearing method

Contact lenses, as a common vision correction tool, are loved by more and more people. However, if contact lenses are not worn correctly, eye discomfort, infection and other problems may result. Therefore, in order to protect our eye health, let's listen to Professor Jin from Wuhan Union Medical College Eye Hospital and learn the correct way to wear contact lenses.

Choose suitable contact lenses

Choosing suitable contact lenses is the basis for ensuring comfortable wearing. First of all, you need to have a vision examination under the guidance of an ophthalmologist to ensure your degree and corneal condition. According to the doctor's advice, select the appropriate contact lens type, such as soft or hard, monthly or quarterly.

Secondly, consider your lifestyle and usage habits. If you often exercise or need to use the computer for a long time, you may need to choose contact lenses with good permeability and long use time.

Finally, make sure that the contact lens brand you choose comes from a trusted optician or medical institution to ensure quality and safety.

Correct steps for wearing contact lenses

Correct contact lens wearing steps are very important to ensure the comfort and safety of glasses.

First, wash your hands. Wash your hands thoroughly with mild soap and warm water to ensure they are clean.

Then, take out a contact lens. Put the contact lens on the palm of your hand on a flat and clean surface, and be careful not to touch the concave and convex surface of the lens.

Next, gently place the contact lens on the eyeball with your fingertips. Make sure that the eyeball and pupil are aligned with the contact lens, and gradually place the glasses on the eyeball.

Finally, gently press the contact lens with your finger to fix it in the correct position. Then close your eyes and slowly open them to ensure the stability and comfort of your glasses.

Precautions for contact lenses

Contact lenses have certain risks, so some precautions need to be observed to protect eye health.

First, follow the wearing time of glasses. Do not exceed the wearing time recommended by the doctor. Remove and clean the contact lenses every day.

Secondly, replace the contact lens case and contact lens solution regularly. Replace the box and liquid strictly according to the instructions to avoid bacterial breeding and infection.

Finally, if there are any abnormal symptoms, such as eye discomfort, pain, redness, swelling or blurred vision, immediately remove the contact lenses and consult the doctor's advice.
