INTRODUCTION:
With your decision to wear soft (hydrophilic) contact lens, you have joined a growing number of people who are discovering
new pleasures from this important advance in vision correction.
Your Intelliwave3 Intelliwave3Pro/KeraSoft IC/Kerasoft Thin Silicone Hydrogel Daily Wear Soft Contact Lens is made of
a stable, inert, highly purified, hydrophilic (water absorbing) polymer with properties different from conventional soft lenses.
Fully lathe-cut to optical precision in the dry state, your lens hold these qualities in the soft, moist state in which they are suited
for your use. Kept moist by the tears in your eyes, the lens is soft and comfort can be immediate. You are cautioned, however,
to follow the initial wearing time schedule prescribed by your practitioner and not to overwear the lens simply because they
remain comfortable. Your eyecare practitioner will determine your appropriate wearing schedule.
Although soft and pliable, your lens is strong and durable. The life of your Intelliwave3 Intelliwave3Pro/KeraSoft IC/Kerasoft
Thin Silicone Hydrogel Daily Wear Soft Contact Lens will depend to a large extent on how you handle and care for them.
As with all precision devices, proper use will assure you the benefits of convenience, comfort, and confidence in your lens.
Read this Wearer's Guide carefully. It contains the information you need to know to wear, handle, and care for your Intelliwave3
Intelliwave3Pro/KeraSoft IC/Kerasoft Thin Silicone Hydrogel Daily Wear Soft Contact Lens. If you are in doubt about any
instructions, request clarification from your eyecare practitioner.

labeling for use in both heat and chemical disinfection. Always use FRESH, STERILE UNEXPIRED lens care
solutions. Always follow directions in the package inserts for the use of contact lens solutions. Sterile unpreserved
solutions, when used should be discarded after the time specified in the labelling directions.
* Do not use saliva or anything other than the recommended solution for lubricating or rewetting your lenses. Always
keep your lens completely immersed in the recommended storage solution when your lens is not being worn
(stored). Prolonged periods of drying will damage your lens. Follow the lens care directions for care for a dried
out (dehydrated) dry lens if the lens surface does become dried out.
* If the lens sticks (stops moving) on your eye, follow the recommended directions on care for sticking lens. Your
lens should move freely on your eye for the continued health of your eye. If non-movement of your lens continues,
you should be IMMEDIATELY consult your eyecare practitioner.
* Always wash and rinse your hands before handling lenses. Do not get cosmetics, lotions, soaps, creams, deodorants,
or sprays in your eyes or on your lens. It is best to put your lens on before putting on makeup. Water-base cosmetics
are less likely to damage lens than oil-base.
* Do not touch the contact lens with your fingers or hands if your hands are not free of foreign materials, as
microscope scratches of the lens may occur, causing distorted vision and/or injury to your eye.
* Carefully follow the handling, insertion, removal, cleaning, disinfection, storing and wearing instructions in your

until the spray has settled.
* Always handle your lens carefully and avoid dropping them.
* Avoid all harmful or irritating vapors and fumes while wearing your lens.
* Ask your eyecare practitioner about wearing your lens during sporting activities.
* Inform the doctor (health care practitioner) about you being a contact lens wearer.
* Never use tweezers or other tools to remove the lens from your lens container unless specifically indicated for that
use. Pour the lens into your hand.
* Do not touch the lens with your fingernails.
* Always discard your lenses worn on a frequent replacement schedule after the recommended wearing schedule
prescribed by your eyecare practitioner.
* Always contact your eyecare practitioner before using any medicine or medications in your eyes.
* Always inform your employer of being a contact lens wearer. Some jobs may require use of eye protection
equipment or may require that you not wear contact lens.
* As with any contact lens, follow-up visits are necessary to assure the continuing health of your eyes. You should
be instructed as to a recommended follow-up schedule.
ADVERSE REACTIONS:
The following problems may occur:
* Eyes stinging, burning, itching (irritation), or other eye pain.
* Comfort is less than when lens was first placed on eye.
* Feeling that something is in the eye such as a foreign body or scratched area.
* Excessive watering (tearing) of the eye.
* Unusual eye secretions.
* Redness of the eye.
* Reduced sharpness of vision (poor visual acuity).
* Blurred vision, rainbows, or halos around objects.
* Sensitivity to light (photophobia).
* Dry eyes.
* During use for the management of irregular corneal conditions, an adverse effect may be due to the original
condition or may be due to the effects of wearing your contact lens. There is a possibility that the existing condition
might become worse when a lens is used on an eye with an irregular corneal condition. You should be instructed
to avoid serious eye damage by contacting your eyecare professional IMMEDIATELY if there is an increase in
symptoms while wearing your lens.

PRINT Rev 2: 10/19 ©Art Optical Contact Lens, Inc. s:lb300.iw
If you notice any of the above, IMMEDIATELY REMOVE YOUR LENS.
* If discomfort or problems stop, then look closely at your lens. If the lens is in anyway damaged, DO NOT PUT
THE LENS BACK ON YOUR EYE. Place the lens in the storage case and contact your eyecare practitioner. If
the lens has dirt, an eyelash, or other foreign body on it, or the problem stops and the lens appears undamaged, you
should thoroughly clean, rinse, and disinfect the lens, then reinsert it. After reinsertion, if the problem continues,
you should IMMEDIATELY REMOVE THE LENS AND CONSULT YOUR EYECARE PRACTITIONER.
When any of the above problems occur, a serious condition such as infection, corneal ulcer, neovascularization, or
iritis may be present. KEEP LENS OFF YOUR EYE AND SEEK IMMEDIATE PROFESSIONAL
IDENTIFICATION of the problem and prompt treatment to avoid serious eye damage.
PERSONAL CLEANLINESS and LENS HANDLING
Before Handling Your Lens:
Cleanliness is the first and most important aspect of proper contact lens care.
Before handling your lens, always wash and rinse your hands thoroughly and dry them with a lint-free towel. Do not
use soaps, lotions, cold creams, or perfumes which leave a residue on your hands. Avoid using medications, creams,
deodorants, make-up, after shave lotions, or similar items prior to touching your lens. When hair spray is used, the eye
must be kept closed until the spray has settled. Take care in handling your lens. Always avoid touching your lens with
your fingernails or other sharp objects. NEVER WORK DIRECTLY OVER A SINK WITH THE DRAIN OPEN, AS
THE LENS MAY BE LOST.
Handling and Placing the Lens on the Eye:
1) To avoid the possibility of lens mix-ups, always start with the same lens first.
2) Remove the lens from its storage case and examine it to be sure that it is moist, clean, clear, and free of any nicks
or tears.
3) Before inserting the lens, rinse well with fresh, sterile rinsing solution. Then place the lens on the tip of the index
finger of your dominant hand.
4) While positioned on your index finger, check to ensure the lens has not turned inside out. To check this, look at the
profile of the lens against a light background. If the edge profile appears convex and bowl-shaped, then it is correct.
If the lens is inverted, it will flare out at the edge. If the lens is inverted, simply reverse it by using light fingertip
pressure. Be sure to avoid damaging the lens with your fingernails.
5) Look straight ahead and raise the upper lid with your other index finger.
6) Then look down, keep both eyes open and place the lens on the upper white part of the eye.
7) Slowly release upper lid, and gently close your eye.
8) The lens should center automatically, or it can be moved on center by gentle fingertip pressure through the lids.
9) Repeat the above procedure for the second lens.
10) If the lens appears to be stuck on your eye, apply a few drops of a recommended lubricating or rewetting solution
to the eye and blink a few times. If the lens does not move freely on your eye, contact your eyecare practitioner for
further instructions.
There is no single "right way" of putting on lens. If you find this method of lens placement difficult, your eyecare
practitioner will suggest another method or provide additional information.
Centering the Lens:
Very rarely, a lens that is on the cornea will be displaced onto the white part of the eye during lens wear. This can also
occur during placement and removal of the lenses if the correct techniques are not performed properly. To center a lens
on the eye, follow the procedure below.
Using your index finger, gently apply pressure to the lens and slide it back onto the cornea. If the lens gets under the
upper lid, gently massage the upper lid while looking down and move the lens toward the cornea.
Removing the Lens:
Preparation:
1) Wash and rinse your hands thoroughly.

______________________________________________________________________________________________________
PRINT Rev 2: 10/19 ©Art Optical Contact Lens, Inc. s:lb300.iw
2) Dry hands with a lint-free towel.
3) Check that the lens is centered on the cornea before attempting to remove the lens. Check your vision by covering
one eye. If vision is blurry, the lens is off-center. Re-center the lens before attempting to remove it.
Removal:
1) To avoid the possibility of lens mix-ups, always begin with the same lens.
2) Look up and keep both eyes open.
3) Using the middle finger of your dominant hand, gently pull down the lower lid of the first eye. Using the tip of
your index finger of the same hand, touch the lens and slide it onto the white of the eye.
4) Gently "pinch" the lens between the index finger and the thumb and remove.
5) Repeat the procedure for the second eye.
6) If the lens cannot be easily moved, apply a few drops of lubricating or rewetting solution to the eye, blink a few
times, and when the lens moves freely on the eye, remove in the manner described above. If the lens still cannot
be moved, contact your eyecare practitioner for further instruction.
7) Upon removal, clean each lens with a contact lens cleaner per the procedures described under the heading, CARING
FOR YOUR LENS. Rinse well with rinsing solution and place in the lens storage case filled with fresh storage
solution.
IMPORTANT: Always avoid touching your lens with your fingernails. Use only your fingertips.
If you find this method difficult, your eyecare practitioner will suggest another method or provide additional instruction.
If the lens is chipped or torn, do not put the lens back on your eye. Return the lens to the storage case with fresh solution and
contact your eyecare practitioner.
CARING FOR YOUR LENS
Basic Instructions:
For continued safe and comfortable wearing of your lens, it is important that you first clean and rinse, then disinfect
your lens after each removal, using the care regimen recommended by your eyecare practitioner. Cleaning and rinsing
are necessary to remove mucus, secretions, films, or deposits, which may have accumulated after removing them.
Disinfecting is necessary to destroy harmful germs.
You should adhere to a recommended care regimen. Failure to follow the regimen may result in development of serious
ocular complications as discussed in the warning section above.
If you require only vision correction, but will not or cannot adhere to a recommended care regimen for your lens, or are
unable to place and remove your lens or have someone available to place and remove them, you should not attempt to
get and wear contact lens.
When you first get your lens, be sure you have to put the lens on and remove them while you are in your eyecare
practitioner's office. At that time you will be provided with a recommended cleaning and disinfection regimen and
instructions and warnings for lens care, handling, cleaning, and disinfection. Your eyecare practitioner should instruct
you about appropriate and adequate procedures and products for your use, and provide you with a copy of the Wearer's
Guide for the Intelliwave3 Intelliwave3Pro/KeraSoft IC/Kerasoft Thin Silicone Hydrogel Daily Wear Soft Contact
Lens.
For safe contact lens wear, you should know and always practice your lens care routine:
* Always wash, rinse, and dry hands before handling contact lens.
* Always use fresh, sterile unexpired lens care solutions.
* Use recommended system of lens care and carefully follow instructions on solution labeling.
* Different solutions cannot always be used together, and not all solutions are safe for use with all lenses. DO NOT
ALTERNATE OR MIX LENS CARE SYSTEMS UNLESS INDICATED ON SOLUTION LABELING.
* Do not use saliva or anything other than the recommended solutions for lubricating or rewetting lens. Do not put
lens in your mouth.
* Never rinse your lens in water from the tap. There are two reasons for this:
a. Tap water contains many impurities that can contaminate or damage your lens and may lead to eye infection
or injury.
b. You might lose the lens down the drain.
* Your eyecare practitioner should recommend a care system that is appropriate for your Intelliwave3

Intelliwave3Pro/KeraSoft IC/Kerasoft Thin Silicone Hydrogel Daily Wear Soft Contact Lens. Each lens care
product contains specific directions for use and important safety information, which should be read and carefully
followed.
* Clean one lens first (always the same lens first to avoid mix-ups), rinse the lens thoroughly with recommended
rinsing or disinfecting solution to remove the cleaning solution, mucus, and film from the lens surface, and put lens
into correct chamber of the lens storage case. Then repeat the procedure for the second lens.
* After cleaning, disinfect lens using the system recommended by the manufacture and/or your eyecare practitioner.
* To store lens, disinfect and leave them in the closed/unopened case until ready to wear. If lenses are not to be used
immediately following disinfection, you should consult the package insert or your eyecare practitioner for
information on storage of lenses.
* Always keep your lens completely immersed in a recommended disinfecting/conditioning solution when the lens
are not being worn. If you discontinue wearing your lens, but plan to begin wearing them after a few weeks, ask
your eyecare practitioner for a recommendation on how to store your lens.
* Intelliwave3 Intelliwave3Pro/KeraSoft IC/Kerasoft Thin Silicone Hydrogel Daily Wear Soft Contact Lens can
be disinfected using a chemical (NOT HEAT) disinfecting system.
* Contact lens cases can be a source of bacteria growth. After removing the lens from the case, empty and rinse the
lens storage case with solution as recommended by the lens case manufacturer; then allow the lens case to air dry.
When the case is used again, refill it with storage solution. Replace lens case at regular intervals as recommended
by the lens case manufacturer or your eyecare practitioner.
* Your eyecare practitioner may recommend a lubricating/rewetting solution for your use. Lubricating/Rewetting
solutions can be used to wet (lubricate) your lens while you are wearing them to make them more comfortable.
* Lenses prescribed for frequent replacement:
The Intelliwave3 Intelliwave3Pro/KeraSoft IC/Kerasoft Thin Silicone Hydrogel Daily Wear Soft Contact Lens
may be prescribed in a frequent replacement program and should be thrown away after the recommended wearing
period prescribed by your eyecare practitioner.
LENS DEPOSITS AND USE OF ENZYMATIC CLEANER:
Enzyme cleaning may be recommended by your eyecare practitioner. Enzyme cleaning removes protein deposits on
the lens. These deposits cannot be removed with regular cleaners. Removing protein deposits is important for the well-
being of your lens and eyes. If these deposits are not removed, they can damage the lens and cause irritation. Enzyme
cleaning does NOT replace routine cleaning and disinfecting. For enzyme cleaning, you should carefully follow the
instructions in the enzymatic cleaning labeling.
Lens Case Cleaning and Maintenance:
Contact lens cases can be a source of bacteria growth. After removing the lens from the case, empty and rinse the lens
storage case with solution as recommended by the lens case manufacturer; then allow the lens case to air dry. When
the case is used again, refill it with storage solution. Replace lens case at regular intervals as recommended by the lens
case manufacturer or your eyecare practitioner.
Care for a Sticking (non-moving) Lens:
If the lens sticks (cannot be removed), you should apply 3 to 4 drops of the recommended lubricating or rewetting
solution directly to the eye and wait until the lens begins to move freely on the eye before removing it. If non-movement
of the lens continues after 15 minutes, you should IMMEDIATELY consult your eyecare practitioner.
Care for a Dried out (dehydrated) dry Lens:
If for some reason your lenses dry out completely: a minimum of handling is important as they are very brittle in the
dehydrated state. Carefully place them in rinsing or storage solution for a minimum of thirty minutes during which time
they will become soft and flexible. Then follow the cleaning, rinsing, and disinfecting procedures, including soaking
the lens in storage and disinfection solution for four hours before wearing again.
Chemical (NOT HEAT) Disinfection:
1. Wash and rinse your hands thoroughly BEFORE HANDLING LENS.
2. After removal of lens, CLEAN the lens by applying three drops of cleaner to each surface. Then rub the lens
between your fingers for 20 seconds.
3. AFTER CLEANING, thoroughly rinse both surfaces of the lens with a steady stream of fresh, sterile rinsing
solution for approximately 10 seconds.

______________________________________________________________________________________________________
PRINT Rev 2: 10/19 ©Art Optical Contact Lens, Inc. s:lb300.iw
4. Fill contact lens carrying case with the recommended disinfection and storage solution and place lens in the
proper cells and soak as recommend in solution labeling.
Note: DO NOT HEAT THE DISINFECTION SOLUTION AND LENS.
Caution: Lenses that are chemically disinfected may absorb ingredients from the disinfecting solution which may
be irritating to the eyes. A thorough rinse in fresh, sterile rinsing solution prior to placement on the eye
should reduce the potential for irritation.
EMERGENCIES:
If any chemicals of any kind (household products, gardening solutions, laboratory chemicals, etc.) are splashed into the
eyes, you should:
FLUSH EYES IMMEDIATELY WITH TAP WATER AND IMMEDIATELY CONTACT YOUR EYECARE
PRACTITIONER OR VISIT A HOSPITAL EMERGENCY ROOM WITHOUT DELAY.
WHEN TO CALL YOUR PRACTITIONER?
Certain symptoms may be early indicators of potentially serious problems. A careful examination of your lens, and
professional examination of your eyes, may be required. Remove the lens following the instructions outlined in this
guide, and call your eyecare practitioner if:
1) Your eye becomes red and feels irritated or "gritty".
2) You notice a change in your vision or see rainbows or halos around objects.
3) You experience discomfort and/or sensitivity to lights.
A good general policy is:
“IF IN DOUBT ... TAKE THE LENS OUT” and contact your eyecare practitioner.
Learn and Use Proper Lens Care Habits:
1) Follow Instructions.
2) Handle Lens Properly.
3) Learn How to Put On and Take Off Your Lens.
4) Keep Your Lens Clean.
5) Disinfection is a Necessary Security.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR MONOVISION WEARER
 You should be aware that as with any type of lens correction, there are advantages and compromises to monovision
contact lens therapy. The benefit of clear near vision in straight ahead and upward gaze that is available with
monovision may be accompanied by a vision compromise that may reduce your visual acuity and depth perception
for distance and near tasks. Some patients have experienced difficulty adapting to it. Symptoms, such as mild
blurred vision, dizziness, headaches and a feeling of slight imbalance, may last for a brief minute or for several
weeks as adaptation takes place. The longer these symptoms persist, the poorer your prognosis for successful
adaptation. You should avoid visually demanding situations during the initial adaptation period. It is recommended
that you first wear these contact lenses in familiar situations, which are not visually demanding. For example, it
might be better to be a passenger rather than a driver of an automobile during the first few days of lens wear. It is
recommended that you only drive with monovision correction if you pass your state drivers license requirements
with monovision correction.
 Some monovision patients will never be fully comfortable functioning under low levels of illumination, such as
driving at night. If this happens, you may want to discuss with your eyecare practitioner having additional contact
lenses prescribed so that both eyes are corrected for distance when sharp distance binocular vision is required.
If you require very sharp near vision during prolonged close work, you may want to have additional contact lenses
prescribed so that both eyes are corrected for near when sharp near binocular vision is required.
 Some monovision patients require supplemental spectacles to wear over the monovision correction to provide the
clearest vision for critical tasks. You should discuss this with your eyecare practitioner.
 It is important that you follow your eyecare practitioner’s suggestions for adaptation to monovision contact lens

______________________________________________________________________________________________________
PRINT Rev 2: 10/19 ©Art Optical Contact Lens, Inc. s:lb300.iw
therapy. You should discuss any concerns that you may have during and after the adaptation period.
The decision to be fit with monovision correction is most appropriately left to the eyecare practitioner in conjunction with you,
after carefully considering and discussing your needsRECOMMENDED LENS CARE PRODUCTS
