When the contact lenses need to be placed back in, put in a fresh saline solution. Always check out the expiration date on the bottles. Dispose of the ones that are way past the date, even if they are not opened yet. Change the saline solution, as well as your contact lenses as prescribed by your practitioner.

Use another splash of fresh saline solution to do the trick. For vital information on all things concerned with wool, fabrics, tips and techniques and visit Contact Lens send email to darkforces
