WARNINGS: PROBLEMS WITH CONTACT LENSES AND LENS CARE PRODUCTS COULD
RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY TO THE EYE.
It is essential that you follow your eye care professional’s directions and all labeling
instructions for proper use and care of your contact lenses and lens care products, including
the lens case. Eye problems, including corneal ulcers, can develop rapidly and lead to loss of
vision. Daily wear lenses are not indicated for overnight wear and should not be worn while
sleeping. Clinical studies have shown the risk of serious adverse reactions is increased when
these lenses are worn overnight. Extended wear lenses should be regularly removed for
cleaning and disinfection or for disposal and replacement on the schedule prescribed by
your eye care professional. Clinical studies have shown that there is an increased incidence
of serious adverse reactions in extended wear contact lens users as compared to daily wear
contact lens users. Studies have also shown that the risk of serious adverse reactions
increases the longer extended wear lenses are worn before removal for cleaning and
disinfection or for disposal and replacement. Studies have also shown that smokers have a
higher incidence of adverse reactions. If you experience eye discomfort, excessive tearing,
vision changes, redness of the eye, immediately remove your lenses and promptly contact
your eye care professional. It is recommended that contact lens wearers see their eye care
professional twice each year or, if directed, more frequently.
• To avoid contamination, do not touch tip of container to any surface. Replace cap after
using.
• Not for use with heat (thermal) disinfection.
You should fill your lens case with fresh solution every time you store your lenses, and never
“top-off” or re-use solution. You should discard your solution immediately after your lenses
have been removed from the lens case. You should not expose or store your lenses in or
rinse your lens case with any water, such as tap, bottled or distilled, or with any non-sterile
solution.
Empty, then clean and rinse your lens case with renu sensitive multi-purpose solution. Air dry
your lens case each time you remove your lenses. In order to permit excess solution to drain,
you can flip over your lens case while air drying. Replace your lens case monthly.
Failure to discard solution from lens case after each use or use of water to care for
your lenses may lead to contamination resulting in eye injury and potential loss of
vision. See accompanying instructions for additional important safety information.
Important Safety Information:
• Always follow the product directions for use. Failure to follow product directions may lead
to vision loss.
• Visit your eye care practitioner regularly.
• Always wash and dry hands before handling lenses.
• Do not use tap water, bottled water or saliva with lenses or lens case.

ADVERSE REACTIONS (Problems and what to do):
The following problems may occur: eyes sting, burn or itch (irritation), comfort is less than
when lens was first placed on the eye, feeling of something in the eye (foreign body,
scratched area), excessive watering (tearing) of the eye, unusual eye secretions, redness of
the eye, reduced sharpness of vision (poor visual acuity), blurred vision, rainbows or halos
around objects, sensitivity to light (photophobia), or dry eyes.
If you notice any of the above:
IMMEDIATELY REMOVE YOUR LENSES.
• If the discomfort or problem stops, then look closely at the lens.
• If the lens is in any way damaged, DO NOT put the lens back on your eye. Place the lens in
the storage case and contact your eye care professional.
• If the lens has dirt, an eyelash, or other foreign body on it, or the problem stops and the
lens appears undamaged, thoroughly clean, rinse and disinfect the lens, then reinsert it.
• If the problem continues,
IMMEDIATELY remove the lens and consult your eye care
professional.
If any of the above symptoms occur, a serious condition such as infection, corneal ulcer,
neovascularization or iritis may be present. See immediate professional identification of the
problem and prompt treatment to avoid serious eye damage.
GOOD LENS CARE PRACTICES:
• Always wash and rinse your hands before you handle your lenses.
• Clean, rinse and disinfect your lenses each time you remove them.
• Always handle the same lens, the right or the left, first in order to avoid mix-ups.
• After use, always empty and rinse the lens case with fresh
renu sensitive multi-purpose
solution, and allow to air dry.
• Replace your lens case monthly.
