How often are enzyme and protein removers recommended to be used?

• A. Daily
• B. 1-2 weeks
• C. Weekly
• D. Monthly

Answer: (B)

Periodic enzymatic cleaning is used to remove protein deposits from the lens surface. Doing this every 1-2 weeks provides effective deposit removal without over-cleaning or stressing the lens material. Using enzyme removers daily isn’t necessary and can leave residues or be more disruptive than beneficial, while waiting a full month allows buildup to accumulate and become harder to remove, impacting comfort and vision. The interval can be adjusted based on wear time and deposits, but the typical, recommended frequency is every one to two weeks.
