However, they cannot permanently remain in the eye and must be removed for cleaning and to allow eyes to rest. Although there are many different types of contact lenses, the removal process is very similar for each pair. Following these directions, you will be able to remove and store your lenses, whether soft or rigid, without causing damage to your eyes or the contact lenses.<\/p>\n\n<ul>\n<li class=\"section\">\n<h2 class=\"head headline2 mg-1\">Soft Contact Lenses<\/h2>\n<ul class=\"unstyled\">\n<ul class=\"unstyled\">\n<li class=\"step\"><span class=\"stepNumber fl head headline2\">1<\/span>\n<div class=\"stepMeat clearfix\">\n<div>\n<p>Wash and dry hands thoroughly.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li class=\"step\"><span class=\"stepNumber fl head headline2\">2<\/span>\n<div class=\"stepMeat clearfix\">\n<div>\n<p>Close sink drain before removing lenses and place a towel down, as well, to catch the lens if you should drop it.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/ul>\n<div id=\"m1\"><\/div>\n<ul class=\"unstyled\">\n<li class=\"step\"><span class=\"stepNumber fl head headline2\">3<\/span>\n<div class=\"stepMeat clearfix\">\n<div>\n<p>Place a few drops of a wetting solution in the eye to loosen up the lens.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li class=\"step\"><span class=\"stepNumber fl head headline2\">4<\/span>\n<div class=\"stepMeat clearfix\">\n<div>\n<p>Look up and use the index finger to gently slide the contact lens in a downward direction. As soon as it is down, use thumb and index finger to gently grasp the lens and pull it off of the eye.

Rigid lenses are much smaller than soft lenses; therefore, it&#8217;s best to make certain you&#8217;ll be able to see the lens if you should drop it during removal.<\/li>\n<li class=\"step\"><span class=\"stepNumber fl head headline2\">3\u00a0<\/span>Lean over sink, and begin with right eye. Cup left hand beneath the eye. Place right index finger at outer corner of the right eye and pull eyelids toward outer corner of eye socket. This action loosens the suction of the contact lens and pops it out of the eye. Depending on length of eyelashes, the lens may get stuck in lashes instead of falling into the cupped hand. If so, gently brush lashes with finger and grab lens or allow it to fall into your cupped hand.<\/li>\n<li class=\"step\"><span class=\"stepNumber fl head headline2\">4\u00a0<\/span>Place lens in storage case and cover with storage solution.
