Q:<\/b>    How do I remove the artificial eye?<\/h5>\n
A:<\/b>     Wash and dry your hands. Gently pull down the lower lid. Look upwards, and then lever the prostheses forward over the lid with a finger, the prostheses should then fall out into your hand. Try not to drop the prostheses on hard surface as this could cause it to scratch.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n

Q:<\/b>    How should the artificial eye be cleaned?<\/h5>\n
\n

A:<\/b>    This is a very simple procedure. The artificial eye should be washed with contact lens rinsing solution using soft tissues to wipe away debris. Never use chemicals, disinfectants or detergents as these cause permanent damage to the surface of the prostheses.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

Q:<\/b>    How do I refit the artificial eye?<\/h5>\n
\n

A:<\/b>     This is simple. After lifting the upper lid with one hand, holding the prostheses the correct way round with the most pointed side towards the nose, push the prostheses gently into the top of the socket under the lid. Transfer the finger holding the upper lid to the prostheses to prevent it from falling. Then using your free hand pull down the lower lid. The bottom of the prostheses will easily slip inside.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n
