How do I clean my contact lens cases properly?!


Question: How do I clean my contact lens cases properly!?
Like I notice after a while, the cases have a slippery feel to them!. Is it OK to wash them with tap water and air dry them or do we really have to clean them with the solution!?Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
Drop the case and the lid into a pot of boiling water on the stove for a few minutes , then let it air dry!.

Just using tap water , not boiled, can leave some bacteria in the case!.

Then rinse with a bit of solution just before using it again!.

It's best to get a new case about every 3 months also!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

To clean you contact lens case use just your basic tap water then let them air dry!. That's all you have to do and remember to get a new case every 3-4 months!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I give all my Patients free cases if they ask!. See if the place you get yoeur eye exam has a trial kit you can have to replace your kit!. They might just give you a few!. But we do reccomend cleaning your contact lens case after each use with either sterile solution or boiling water!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Correct, wash it with soap then tap water!. air dry then before using, wash it again with the solution!. Change the lens cases every three months!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
