The 5 general steps to lens care:

1. Cleaning:

Remove loose debris and deposits by rubbing or rinsing. Your contact lens practitioner will advise you of the best care regime for your lenses.

2. Disinfection:

It is vitally important to kill bacteria and other organisms responsible for eye infections. This usually involves soaking your lenses in clean disinfecting solution in a storage case for a specified length of time.
