    I wear contacts and want to be extra careful. 💧 What hygiene habits really prevent eye infections?

    Contact lens hygiene: habits that prevent infections

    My non-negotiables

    Habit Why
    Wash hands first 🧼 Prevents transfer
    Fresh solution daily 💧 Never top up old
    No water contact 🚿 Tap water risky
    Replace case monthly 🧴 Prevents buildup
    • Remove before sleep unless daily-wear
    • Replace lenses on schedule
    • See doctor for any redness

    What contact lens habit did you change after a scare? ⚠️
