Applying Your Contact Lenses*

• Wash your hands and dry them thoroughly.
• To avoid getting your lenses mixed up, always apply (or remove) your lenses, one at a time, in the same order. For example, remove your LEFT lens from the storage case and ALWAYS work from left to right.
• Rinse your lens with solution to remove any trace of debris. If you use 1•DAY ACUVUE®, you can take your fresh, new lens right out of the package - no solution is needed.
• Place the lens on the tip of your index finger.
• Using your other hand, hold your upper lid to reduce blinking.
• Pull down your lower eyelid, using your applying hand.
• Look up at the ceiling and place the lens gently on the lower white part of your eye.
• Slowly release your eyelid and close your eye for a moment.
• Blink several times to center the lens on your eye.
• If your lens feels uncomfortable, remove it and inspect if for damage. If it’s damaged, discard it. Otherwise, rinse with more solution and reapply.
• Apply your right lens following the same procedure.

Removing Your Contact Lenses*

• Wash your hands and dry them thoroughly.
• Start with your LEFT lens. ALWAYS work from left to right.
• Look up at the ceiling and pull down your lower eyelid.
• Bring your index finger close to your eye until you touch the lower edge of the lens.
• Slide the lens down to the lower white part of your eye.
• Gently squeeze the lens between your thumb and index finger and remove it.
• Remove the other lens following the same procedure.

* Don’t attempt to apply or remove your lenses by yourself until your eye care professional has supervised your first completion of both procedures.
