My eye care professional recommended a different wearing schedule for my contact lenses than what is stated on the box. Which is correct?
It is customary for a manufacturer to include a recommended replacement schedule for its products in the product package inserts, fitting guide booklets and in some cases on the packaging itself. Such recommendations provide a reference point for those eye care professionals who are looking for such information. Programmed replacement or regular, scheduled replacement of contact lenses promotes a healthier approach to contact lens wear. Replacing lenses on a frequent basis helps to reduce the accumulation of lens deposits and the resulting complications that can occur. CIBA VISION supports and recommends frequent replacement of contact lenses. Because each patient’s eyes are different, only your eye care professional can determine the appropriate lens replacement schedule for you.
