Learn the correct way to clean, disinfect, and store your Bella coloured contact lenses to keep them comfortable and safe.
Quick Answer
Clean and store your Bella coloured contact lenses using a fresh multipurpose solution and a clean case every day. Never use water or saliva, and always replace the solution after each use.
Why Proper Cleaning Matters for Coloured Lenses
Coloured contact lenses have a tint layer that can attract protein deposits and debris more noticeably than clear lenses. Regular cleaning keeps the surface smooth, which helps maintain comfort and clear vision.
Using the right solution is also part of lens care. Multipurpose solutions are designed to disinfect and condition the lens material, while water or homemade solutions can damage the lens and risk eye health.
Daily Cleaning and Storage Routine
- Wash and dry your hands: Before touching your lenses, wash your hands with mild soap, rinse thoroughly, and dry with a lint-free towel. Avoid oily or fragranced soaps that can leave residue on the lens. Never handle lenses with wet hands; moisture can transfer bacteria.
- Remove and clean one lens at a time: Place the lens in your palm, apply a few drops of fresh multipurpose solution, and gently rub it with your fingertip for about 20 seconds. This removes protein deposits and debris. Always use fresh solution—never reuse solution from the case.
- Rinse the lens: After rubbing, rinse the lens with more solution to wash away loosened debris. Hold it by the edges and avoid folding or tearing. If the lens feels dry or sticky, soak it in solution for a few hours before wearing.
- Fill the case with fresh solution: Use a clean case and fill each compartment with fresh multipurpose solution. Never top off old solution—always replace it completely. Check the expiration date on your solution; expired solution loses effectiveness.
- Store lenses correctly: Place each lens in its correct compartment, close the lids tightly, and store the case in a cool, dry place. Avoid exposure to heat or direct sunlight. Never store lenses in water, saline, or rewetting drops—they are not disinfectants.
- Clean and air-dry your case daily: After removing your lenses, empty the case, rinse it with fresh solution (not water), and leave it open to air-dry. Replace the case every 1–3 months. A dirty case can recontaminate your lenses, so keep it clean and dry.
