your eyes and what you should do to protect them.Everyday irritants and deposits
Dust, smoke and dander can irritate the
eyes. If you’re wearing contact lenses, they can
stick to the lens surface and cause eye irritation. Residue
from hand creams and eye makeup remover also causes
deposits to build up on your lens, making your vision
cloudy.
Solution?Protect your eyes with sunglasses. Some
contact lenses also have a layer of protection to shield
your eyes from irritants.
Dryness
Smoke, wind and
air-conditioner are
common culprits
of dry eyes.
Blinking less
often also causes eyes
to dry out.
Solution?Find a pair of
contact lenses that provides
long-lasting moisture and comfort
throughout the day.Ask your eye care professional for a complete wear, care and safety information.5

discomfort

Staring at the screen
Frequent use of computers or
mobile devices causes your
eyes to constantly move
and adjust to the screen,
causing you to blink
less frequently and
strain your eyes.
Solution?Look away
from the computer
every 20 minutes.Wearing contact lenses
for long hours
It is best not to exceed the
recommended hours of
wear by your eye care
professional as contact
lenses usually cover
the entire cornea.
This is said to
restrict the ow
of oxygen to your
eyes and may
cause discomfort,
redness and
infection.
Solution? If you
have to wear your
lenses for long
hours, pick a pair that
comes with a smooth
protective surface using
SmartShield technology for
added comfort.
Not caring for your contact lenses properly
If you don’t clean and disinfect your lenses
daily, you could be inviting germs and bacteria
into your eye or suffer an eye infection.
Solution?Clean your lenses properly, and that
includes washing and air-drying the container.
And remember to change to a fresh pair of
lenses as prescribed.2
