♻️ Don’t flush your contact lenses — recycle them! ♻️
Did you know that flushing contact lenses down the sink or toilet can create harmful microplastics that pollute our rivers, lakes, and oceans? 🌎 Over 44,000 kg of contact lenses end up in water systems every year — that’s the weight of 98 polar bears! 🐻❄️
At Spadina Optometry, we’re proud to be a drop-off location for contact lens recycling. Bring your used lenses, blister packs, and foil tops — we’ll make sure they’re properly recycled through specialized programs that keep plastics out of our water systems. 🙌
💧 Protect our planet.
♻️ Recycle your lenses responsibly.
📍 Drop off anytime during office hours at 477 Richmond St. West, Suite 809
Together, we can help keep microplastics out of our oceans and our future. 💙
