At our practice, we’re committed to making contact lens use more sustainable. Daily disposable lenses are convenient, but they can generate significant waste. To help reduce this environmental impact, we’ve partnered with TerraCycle to recycle used contact lenses, blister packs, and foil seals. Patients can bring their used lenses and packaging to our office, where TerraCycle processes them into new products, keeping waste out of landfills and waterways. By recycling your contact lenses with us, you can enjoy the convenience of daily disposables while contributing to a healthier planet.

As Halloween approaches, it's important to prioritize eye safety, especially if you're thinking about using cosmetic contact lenses to complete your costume. Illegally sold lenses may not be sterile and can cause serious eye problems such as infections, corneal ulcers, and even vision loss. These lenses are often found in costume shops or online without requiring a prescription, putting your eye health at risk. Always purchase cosmetic lenses from a licensed eye care professional to ensure they fit properly and meet safety standards. Don't let unsafe lenses turn your fun night into a frightening experience.
