Removing your lenses can seem like a real challenge when you have fake nails. But with the right techniques, you can do it safely. In this article, discover our tips for removing them without damaging your eyes or your manicure.

Maintaining impeccable hygiene is crucial when you have fake nails. They can harbour bacteria and cause infections when handling your lenses. To avoid this, it is essential to follow these steps:

1. Wash your hands thoroughly with soap to remove all bacteria and impurities.

2. Use a brush to clean under your nails, where germs can hide.

3. Rinse your hands thoroughly to avoid any irritation from soap residue.

4. Dry your hands with a clean towel.

This method involves using your fingertips to pinch the lens gently and remove it from your eye. Follow these steps:

1. Place your index finger on the lens.

2. Gently slide it towards the outer corner of your eye.

3. When it is on the white part, place your index finger and thumb on the sides of the lens.

4. Pinch it between your fingers, avoiding touching the surface of your eye with your nails.

5. Remove it from your eye.

6. Disinfect it with a suitable care product.

If you wear hard contact lenses, you can use a suction cup to remove them safely. Here's how to proceed:

1. Place the suction cup on the lens while looking in the mirror.

2. Gently press to create a slight suction.

3. Carefully pull the suction cup to remove the lens from your eye.

Avant de retirer tes lentilles, assure-toi que tes yeux ne sont pas secs. Utilise des gouttes hydratantes pour éviter toute irritation et faciliter le processus. Des yeux bien hydratés rendent le retrait des lentilles plus confortable et réduisent le risque de blessure. Tu peux utiliser des produits comme les gouttes oculaires de la marque Hylo Eye Care ou Blink disponibles chez Linsenmax.

Before removing your contact lenses, ensure your eyes are not dry. Use hydrating drops to avoid irritation and make the process easier. Well-hydrated eyes make removing lenses more comfortable and reduce the risk of injury. You can use products from brands like Hylo Eye Care or Blink drops available at Linsenmax.

It is important to ensure that your nails are always well trimmed and filed. Sharp or uneven edges can easily damage your contact lenses or scratch the surface of your eye.

Don't get discouraged if you fail the first time. Be patient and take your time to avoid forcing. This could irritate your eyes or, worse still, injure you.

By following all our tips, removing your lenses will no longer be a challenge but a stress-free routine.
