Instructions for use

​

Carefully read the instructions for use enclosed in the packaging! The maximum daily use of LIEBEVUE contact lenses is 12 hours. LIEBEVUE contact lenses are medical devices. Make sure that you have carefully read and understood the instructions for use before use.

​

Before use

 

Before contacting the contact lenses, make sure that you wash your hands and dry them thoroughly with a lint-free towel.
Basically, you should only touch the contact lenses with your fingertips and avoid contact with fingernails or sharp objects if possible. Before inserting the contact lenses, they should always be kept clean, moist and undamaged.

 

 

Insertion of contact lenses

 

Step 1:

The contact lens should be cleaned and rinsed with a multi-purpose solution for soft contact lenses.

​

Step 2:

For every eye you should make sure that the contact lens is clean, right side up and intact when you place it on the tip of your middle or ring finger, your dominant hand. For right-handers, this is usually the right hand.

​

Step 3:

Pull your lower eyelid with your middle  or ring finger with the same hand that you used in step 2 and use the free hand to hold the upper eyelid firmly open. Now look at the contact lens or into one  Mirror while placing the contact lens on your cornea (the large colored circle around your eye). Close  not the eye.

​

Step 4:

Let go of your eyelids now. During the procedure, there should be air bubbles between your cornea and the contact lens  close your eye and gently circle them with your finger over the eyelid.

​

Step 5:

Repeat step 1 through step 4 for the other eye.
