Wearing contact lenses offers convenience, but it also comes with the responsibility of taking extra care of your eyes. If you’re a regular contact lens wearer, you may have experienced dryness, irritation, or discomfort at some point. These issues can be frustrating, especially when they affect your daily activities. The good news is that maintaining a proper eye care routine can help prevent these problems and ensure your eyes remain healthy and comfortable.
Here’s how you can keep your eyes in top shape as a contact lens wearer, with a few must-have products from I-DEW to support your eye care journey.
- Keep your eyes Hydrated
One of the most common challenges for contact lens wearers are dry eyes. Wearing lenses for extended periods can limit the oxygen supply to your eyes, leading to dryness, discomfort, and even blurry vision. Proper hydration is essential to maintaining eye health and comfort, especially if you wear lenses throughout the day.
I-DEW Hydrate PF preservative-free eye drops are the perfect solution for contact lens wearers seeking relief from dryness. Formulated with a gentle, preservative-free formula, these drops provide immediate hydration, soothing your eyes and allowing you to wear your lenses more comfortably. They are perfect for daily use, especially during the day when your eyes are most active.
Keep a bottle of I-DEW Hydrate PF in your bag for on-the-go relief, and make sure your eyes stay moisturised even after long hours of lens wear.
- Don’t Forget Your Nighttime Routine
Just like your skin, your eyes also need a little extra care at night. Contact lens wearers can experience additional dryness or irritation overnight, especially if they have been wearing their lenses for extended periods during the day. While it's important to remove your lenses before bed, your eyes can still benefit from an overnight moisture boost.
I-DEW Advance PF preservative-free eye drops are designed to deeply hydrate your eyes while you sleep. These drops offer long-lasting moisture, providing relief from irritation and ensuring that your eyes feel refreshed when you wake up. By incorporating I-DEW Advance PF into your nighttime routine, you’re giving your eyes the nourishment they need to stay healthy and comfortable, even after a long day of lens wear.
- Prioritise Eye Hygiene
Good eye hygiene is crucial for contact lens wearers. Debris, dirt, and makeup can accumulate around your eyes throughout the day, increasing the risk of irritation and infection. Cleaning your eyelids and lashes regularly is a simple yet effective way to protect your eyes.
I-DEW Eyelid Cleansing Wipes are an essential part of everyones day-to-day eye care routine, these pre-moistened, plant-based wipes are gentle on your eyes and perfect for daily use. They effectively remove dirt, oil, makeup, and other debris from your eyelids and lashes, promoting good eye hygiene and reducing the chances of infection or irritation. These wipes are especially helpful if you experience itchy or irritated eyes due to allergens or pollutants.
Incorporating I-DEW Eyelid Cleansing Wipes into your routine helps ensure your eyes remain clean and comfortable, providing an extra layer of protection while wearing contact lenses.
- Give Your Eyes a Break
While it’s easy to forget, taking regular breaks from your lenses is essential for maintaining eye health. Continuous wear can lead to discomfort, dryness, and even long-term issues. Make sure to follow your optician’s recommendations on wearing times and give your eyes time to rest, especially when you’re at home or sleeping.
Additionally, practice the 20-20-20 rule when working on screens. Every 20 minutes, take a 20-second break to focus on something 20 feet away to reduce eye strain.
