Clear answers on cleaning, storing, and wearing A872 Green 1-month bottle lenses, from solution routines to daily wear limits.
Quick answer
Clean and store your A872 Green lenses in fresh multipurpose solution every time you remove them, and replace the pair one month after opening the bottle. Never use tap water, and take them out at the first sign of redness or discomfort.
Why the one-month clock starts at opening, not first wear
The A872 Green bottle is a 1-month lens, meaning the replacement schedule begins when you break the seal, even if you only wear them occasionally. Write the opening date on the bottle cap so you don't lose track. Wearing them past that point raises the risk of protein buildup and irritation, because the HEMA material gradually loses its ability to stay clean.
When to skip the lens case and use a fresh one
Your lens case is a common source of contamination. Replace it with every new bottle, or at minimum every three months, and let it air-dry face down on a clean tissue between uses. If you drop a lens on the floor or it touches a non-sterile surface, do not simply rinse and reinsert it—clean it with solution and let it sit in the case for at least four hours before wearing again.
A872 Green care and wear FAQ
- How do I clean the lenses after wearing?
- Wash and dry your hands, place one lens in your palm, apply a few drops of multipurpose solution, and gently rub it with your fingertip for 10–20 seconds. Rinse with solution and store in a clean case filled with fresh solution. Never use tap water or saliva to clean or store the lenses.
- What solution routine should I follow?
- Use a multipurpose solution labeled for soft contact lenses. After each wear, rub, rinse, and store the lenses in fresh solution. Do not top off old solution in the case—discard it and refill. Change the solution daily, even if you skip a day of wear.
- How long can I wear them each day?
- Start with shorter wear times and gradually increase. Do not exceed the daily wear time recommended by your eye care professional. Remove them immediately if you feel dryness, redness, or discomfort. Never sleep in your lenses unless specifically approved for overnight wear.
- Can I wear them for swimming or showering?
- No. Water can introduce harmful microorganisms. Remove your lenses before swimming, showering, or using a hot tub. Keep lenses away from all water sources.
- How should I store the lenses when not in use?
- Keep them fully submerged in fresh solution in a closed lens case. Store the case in a clean, dry place away from direct sunlight. Do not let the lenses dry out. If the lenses dry out, discard them—do not try to rehydrate.
- When should I replace the bottle?
- Discard the bottle and lenses one month after opening, even if you have not worn them every day. Write the opening date on the bottle as a reminder. Do not use lenses past their replacement date.
