Cleaning Procedures
Cleaning the Lens Piece
The patient contact area lens should be cleaned immediately after use to prevent
the coupling gel from hardening.
1. Wipe away debris from the front lens piece surface with a soft dry tissue, sterile
water soaked tissue, or combination.
2. Then, using a clean soft cloth (such as sterile gauze) saturated in a fresh
solution of 70% IPA (Isopropyl alcohol), gently wipe the front of the lens piece,
being sure to pay special attention to the concave contact lens area, to remove
any remaining debris; at least eleven wipes with a clean saturated cloth.
Pre-packaged swabs may be used.
3. Rinse surface thoroughly using sterile water.
4. Air dry.
5. Verify that the lens surface is free of debris and coupling gel. Repeat above
steps if necessary.
6. Inspect the lens for damage and clarity. Do not use the lens if there are chips,
cracks, or rough edges on the lens which may injure the patient’s eye.
