Answer 1

when i started wearing contacts, i found the easiest way was this...
don't look in a mirror, it can scare you and touching your eye won't hurt you.
look down, preferably over a table, so if you drop the contact it won't fall on the floor. while looking down bring the contact up to your eye and just touch it to your eyeball. take your finger off and then blink. then put a couple drops of saline in your eye. remember practice makes perfect and again you won't hurt anything, so relax and don't be scared

Answer 2

Go to your local optomitrist and ask the lady at the desk. Some people can't wear contacts and others just have a paranoia about touching thier eyes. I wear contacts and I have more difficulty putting them in on my left eye. I hold my eye open with my fingers and place the contact in and set it in place. I blink twice and then put in some solution. Makes it stay. I think the optometrist might have some different options for you though. Good luck!
