When you were younger, it was probably emphasized that you should wash your hands before dinner. While that advice should be taken well into your adulthood, there are many other scenarios in which you should be washing your hands. In fact, one of the most important times to wash your hands is before you touch your eyes, particularly, if you are inserting or removing contact lenses. While it’s impossible to keep your hands entirely germ free, washing your hands can often mitigate the amount of bacteria or other dirt and grime that will get into your eyes or contact lenses. That in mind, here are some of the diseases you can avoid and how you should wash your hands to ensure a healthier life and hygienic routine. Image Credit: Google
