Learn the proper steps to clean and store your colored contact lenses using a multi-purpose cleaning solution bottle, ensuring comfort and hygiene.

Quick answer

Use a multi-purpose contact lens cleaning solution to rinse, rub, and store your colored lenses daily. This removes debris and protein buildup while keeping your lenses hydrated and comfortable.

Why a dedicated solution matters for colored lenses

Colored contact lenses have an added pigment layer that can trap debris and protein more easily than clear lenses. Using a multi-purpose cleaning solution formulated for contact lenses helps maintain the lens quality and prevents irritation. Avoid using water or homemade solutions, as they can introduce bacteria and damage the lens surface.

Steps to clean your colored contacts

  1. Wash and dry your hands: Thoroughly wash your hands with soap and water, then dry them with a lint-free towel. This prevents transferring dirt or oils to your lenses. Never skip handwashing—it's the first defense against eye infections.
  2. Remove one lens and rinse it: Place the lens in the palm of your hand and apply a few drops of the cleaning solution. Gently rub the lens with your fingertip for about 20 seconds to loosen debris. Rub gently to avoid damaging the lens surface.
  3. Rinse and store the lens: Rinse the lens with fresh solution and place it in a clean case filled with new solution. Repeat for the other lens, then close the case tightly. Always use fresh solution—never reuse old solution from the case.
  4. Let the lenses soak overnight: Leave the lenses in the solution for at least 6 hours (or overnight) to ensure full disinfection. This removes protein buildup and keeps the lenses hydrated. Do not shorten the soak time; proper disinfection takes hours.
