To protect the health of your eyes, here’s a guide on how to use the contact lenses correctly.
STEP 1Before lens insertion
-
1Trim your fingernails
Keep your fingernails short to avoid scratching the lens. Ensure the edges of your fingernails are smooth.
-
2Wash your hands
Wash your hands with soap before touching the lens. Ensure there is no soap remaining on your hands.
Only handle the lens with thoroughly cleaned fingers.
STEP 2Opening lens packaging
-
1Removing lens from the packaging
Remove lens from the packaging box.
- Ensure your fingers are dry
- Always start with the lens for the right eye to prevent mixing up the two sides -
2Detaching a lens blister
With the aluminium foil facing up, slowly tear to detach a lens blister from the rest.
-
3Checking the lens blister
Shake the lens blister lightly to ensure that the lens is immersed in the storage solution.
Do not open if you notice any damage or hole on the blister.
Please contact the shop of purchase immediately in such events. -
4Peeling off the foil
While holding the blister tightly, lift the edge of the foil and gradually peel off the whole foil.
Take care not to spill the storage solution in the blister. -

Cover the other eye while looking through the lens to ensure that it is inserted correctly and your vision is clear.
