Video Transcript

"Hi! My name is Elton Hall and I'm here at Texas State Optical in Austin, Texas. I'm here on behalf of Expert Village, and I'm going to show you how to care for your contact lenses. Say for instance, you got something in your eye. Maybe an eyelash, any type of debris. If you want to, you can take the contact lens off. Sometimes you do not have to. If you want to leave the contact lens in, what you want to do is probably use rewetting drops and rinse the eye out. You can actually take the contact lens and move it to the corner of the eye, look away from it, and then move it back. Whatever is under the contact lens it comes from under there. You can take the contact lens off and make sure that nothing is on it. Take a look at it, rinse it off real well, and then put it back in. If you do not want to take your contact lens off, you can actually take it and slide it over to the corner, look away, the move it back and it should come from under there."
