Saline & Lens Cases

The health of your eyes is important to us at Up in Smoke. In order to help keep your eyes and lenses in peak condition we encourage ColourVUE wearers to read all the information provided in this guide

ColourVUE lenses supplied are non corrective fashion accessory lenses which conform to the strict guidelines laid down by the EU. Lenses must not be sold to people under the age of 16.

The Do’s and Don’ts of ColourVUE lens wear:

Do

  • Wash your hands with soap prior to handling your lenses – non-perfumed anti-bacterial liquid soap dispensers are preferable to bars of soap, which can be contaminated more easily
  • Thoroughly rinse off all soap to avoid contamination and then dry your hands on a lint-free towel to prevent getting lint on the lense
  • Use oil-free and fragrance-free eye makeup
  • Use water-resistant mascara and eyeliner to prevent flaking and smudging
  • Make sure the lens is fully immersed in the solution (click through to Max Optifresh solution). Never use lenses unless fully hydrated (wet) in solution (click through to Max Optifresh solution)
  • Always clean & disinfect lenses before re-insertion into the eye
  • Clean, rinse and disinfect your lenses after each use
  • Replace lenses if they become damaged / scratched or if they have deposits which cannot be removed. Handle lenses with your finger tips and be careful to avoid contact with your finger nails.
  • Call your optician if you have any redness, pain, swelling or irritation, pain, burning sensation, excessive watering, increasingly blurred vision, coloured haloes around light sources and / or sensitivite.
  • Visit your eye-care practitioner regularly for a routine check-up

Don't

  • Use tap water or saliva to wet your lenses or lens case
  • Wear makeup or put in your lenses if your eyes are swollen, red or infected
  • Go to bed with a painful red eye - seek advice immediately
  • Allow lotions, soaps, creams, deodorants, hair sprays & cosmetics (especially metallic powders) to come in contact with the lenses. They can cause an eye infection or irritation
  • Re-use disinfecting solution – discard and replace with fresh solution (click through to Max Optifresh solution) each time lenses are stored
  • Wear your lenses longer than advised and never sleep in them
  • Use mascara with 'lash-building fibres' as they can damage your lenses
  • Use your lenses for swimming or water sports, unless wearing goggles
  • Expose your lenses to excessive heat

Lens Case Care

  • Your lens case needs to be just as clean as your lenses, after all they spend a lot of time soaking in them. Please follow our basic but essential lens case care instructions:-
  • After you’ve inserted your lenses, empty your case of solution (click through to Max Optifresh solution)
  • Regularly rinse your case with fresh disinfecting solution (click through to Max Optifresh solution) and leave to air dry on a daily basis (microbes cannot multiply in dry conditions)
  • Replace your cases frequently – monthly is ideal
