A contact lens case is a small, portable container designed to hold and store contact lenses when they are not being worn. Its primary function is to protect the delicate lenses from damage and contamination, ensuring their longevity and efficacy in providing clear vision. Typically, a contact lens case has two separate compartments, one for each lens, labeled with "L" and "R" to avoid confusion between the left and right eye lenses.
To maintain proper eye health, contact lens wearers should use a fresh contact lens solution daily to keep the lenses clean, hydrated, and bacteria-free. It's essential to regularly clean, rinse, and replace the contact lens case to avoid the build-up of germs that can lead to eye infections. Following the recommended guidelines for care and replacement of contact lenses and cases will not only prolong the life of the lenses but also ensure the best possible eye health for the wearer.
