More Contact Lens Safety Tips

October – Contact Lens Safety Month

Tip # 3

Never store or clean your contacts in water.

Water can introduce germs to the eyes and contact lenses.  Water can also cause contact lenses to change their shape, stick to the eye and swell.  This can be extremely uncomfortable and can scratch the cornea making it even easier for germs to enter your eyes and cause problems.
