'Children do not always know how to explain that they cannot see. They may move closer to the board or lose concentration, and adults interpret it as a different problem.'

Whether you wear contacts daily or only occasionally, nowโ€™s the time to refresh good habits that keep your eyes healthy and comfortable. Book an eye exam, follow your replacement and wear schedules, clean and store lenses properly, and never sleep in lenses unless prescribed. Small steps prevent painful infections and long-term damage.

- Get an eye exam if itโ€™s been a year or more.
- Follow your prescribed replacement schedule (daily, bi-weekly, monthly).
- Wash hands before handling lenses.
- Use only recommended contact-solution; never use water, saliva, or homemade mixes.
- Clean, rub, rinse, and air-dry your case; replace it every 3 months.
- Donโ€™t sleep in or extend wear unless your doctor prescribes it.
- Skip contacts when swimming or showering, or wear tight-fitting goggles.
- Remove lenses and see your eye care professional immediately for pain, redness, sudden vision changes, or discharge.
