Contact Lens Care: What We Should All Know (Chinese)
关于角膜接触镜:我们应该知道些什么



Tips for safe contact lens (CL) use to ensure happy and healthy eyes:
怎样健康的使用软性角膜接触镜

1) Do not sleep in CL.

不要佩戴角膜接触镜睡觉。

Even a brief nap in CL could be a bad idea.  The CL and your eyelid act as a double barrier, potentially trapping bacteria on the CL directly on your eye. While the CL is fairly porous and oxygen can reach the cornea (the surface layer of the eye), it still acts as a barrier. When a person sleeps in a pair of CL, their eyelid acts as a second barrier.  When you have the plastic CL over the eye, you are not only depriving the eye of oxygen but also increasing the risk of germs attacking the cornea.
佩戴角膜接触镜即使只是小寐也不好。角膜接触镜和你的眼睑构成了双层屏障,使得角膜接触镜上的细菌直接滞留在眼睛上。即使角膜接触镜是多孔的,氧气可以达到角膜(眼睛的表层),它依然还是个屏障。当一个人佩戴角膜接触镜睡觉时,眼睑构成了第二道屏障。当你把一个塑料角膜接触镜戴在眼睛上,你不仅剥夺了眼睛的获得氧气,还增加了细菌侵袭角膜的危险。

2) Do not shower or swim in CL.  

不要带着角膜接触镜洗澡或游泳。

Avoid water when wearing CL.  Water from the tap is not clean enough to rinse CL or cases. The parasite Acanthamoeba can be found in tap water and can cause severe eye infections resulting in vision loss.  Even more bacteria can be found in swimming pools and lakes/rivers/ocean.
佩戴角膜接触镜时尽量避免接触水。自来水并不足以干净到可以冲洗角膜接触镜。在自来水中找到的阿米巴寄生虫可以导致严重的眼部感染并因起视力丧失。而在游泳池,江河湖海中可以找到更多的细菌。

3) Replace CL on time.  
及时更换角膜接触镜。

CL can become worn and more susceptible to germs if they are used beyond the recommended time. 
如果角膜接触镜佩戴超过建议的时间会更容易损伤或被细菌污染。

4) Use clean CL cleaning solution each time (discard used disinfectant solution completely from the case and do not top up), clean case daily, and lens cases should be discarded after three months.

每次清洁角膜接触镜应使用接触镜清洗液每天清洗(不要在盒中使用过的清洗液加液体,而是要将其彻底倾倒),接触镜盒应在使用3个月后丢弃。


If you have the following symptoms while or after wearing CL, please seek immediate medical attention (as it could be a very serious infection: corneal ulcer):
- redness
- sensitivity to light
- pain
- blurry vision
在佩戴角膜接触镜时或过后,如你有以下症状,请立即联系就医(这可能会是一种非常严重的感染:角膜溃疡):
-            眼红
-            对光敏感
-            眼疼

-            视物模糊
