How to wash the contact lens case? Is it okay for not washing them?!


Question: How to wash the contact lens case? Is it okay for not washing them?
I've been using them for about half month? and i heard they say i have to wash them at least once a week. but how do i wash them? can you guys help me by telling me from start to end of the washing process?

for example, what should i use to wash?what should i do to dry the case? use towel? or anything like that.

Answers:

Keep the case away from water. Water contains bacteria which can cause nasty eye infections with contact lenses.

Use your solution to rinse it out regularly and replace your case once a month. Don't use a towel in case you get fibers on the case, just let it "drip dry" by turning upside down.

Usually you just hold the case under running hot water for about 30 seconds, then let air dry.
