How often should you throw away your contact lens case?

Dr. Woo wants to discuss your contact lens case. This is something that needs to be replaced frequently. Many patients keep them for weeks, months, or even years on end, which harbors tons of bacteria, viruses, fungi, and amoebas.
In reality, you need to replace this every three months at a minimum. The key is, if you find a type of contact lens solution that you like or your doctor prescribes for you, it usually comes with a contact lens case. Once you're done using that solution, you can throw the case away.
Personally, Dr. Woo throws her contact lens cases away every two to four weeks. That might be overkill, but she knows how much bacteria collect in these things. So please make sure you are throwing these away very, very frequently to help prevent eye infections.
