Deep lens cleaning

You can extend the life of contact or colored lenses by periodically cleaning them with a peroxide solution. It cleans, disinfects and neutralizes all types of lenses. There are a lot of peroxide solutions on the market today, and everyone chooses the one that suits him and his wallet. Personally, I settled on a product from the British company Sauflon called One Step. A bottle of peroxide solution (100 ml) is sold along with instructions and a special cleaning flask.

Step 1. Having purchased a peroxide solution, you can proceed directly to cleaning the lenses. To implement the procedure you will need:
• cleaning solution;
• special flask with a platinum element;
• tweezers;
• lenses.
At the first stage, everything should look approximately the same as in the photo.

Step 2. Open the container with the lenses and take the tweezers out of the case.

Step 3. We need to place the lenses in special cells of the cleaning flask and secure them. To do this, take out a white retainer from a special container and open the lid on one side.

Step 4. Using tweezers, place one lens into the locking cell and close the lid.We carry out similar actions with the second lens.

Step 5. Attach the clamp to the lid of the cleaning flask and set it aside.

Step 6. Pour the peroxide solution into a special container (not above the limit line) and immerse the retainer with lenses into it.

It can be seen that I did not pour enough solution and it does not completely cover the entire lens. It can be fixed. It is enough to open the flask again and add the required amount of liquid.

Step 7. The tightly closed cleaning flask needs to be turned upside down for a couple of seconds and then returned to its original position. Cleaning processes have already started.

Step 8: Leave the lenses in the cleaning solution for 6 hours. Under no circumstances should you take it out before! This can cause an eye burn. Keeping lenses in a peroxide solution for more than 6 hours will not harm your eyes.
