The golden rule when it comes to wearing contact lenses is to wash your hands thoroughly with soap.

• Clean and disinfect your contact lenses every day. Make sure to keep artificial tears ready. That’s because contact lenses usually tend to dry out the eyes. 
• Do not wear contact lenses 24X7 as your eyes need to breathe. Also, avoid wearing contact lenses while going to sleep. 
• Try this eye exercise – rest your eyes by staring at an object carefully for about 20 seconds. You can do this 10 to 15 times a day. Always use a contact lens solution that is recommended by your eye doctor. 
• Not all solutions can be used for all types of contact lenses. Do not wear eye make-up before wearing contact lenses. 
• Wear your lenses and then apply make-up.
