If you cant see out of them , then switch them and see if its better............ and you have to put the right one in the right eye............ each eye is different

The witch one will have a black hat and a broomstick.
(sorry, I can never resist a good typo)
If there's only a small difference between the two Rx's it is easiest to detect the difference for extreme distance and near vision. Try a street sign, for example with either eye: if the vision is unequal, see if it is better matched with the lenses swopped.
For near, bring some small print up to one eye until you can only just hold it clear. If that distance is noticeably different with the other eye, there is a good chance your lenses are swopped.
Even if wearing them the wrong way round all you are risking is some eyestrain, and possible headaches. No permanent damage.

You should be able to tell if you put the contacts in the wrong eye because you won't see properlly - unless you have the exact same prescription for both eyes.

Well i wear contacts with two different pescriptions, try to check if the contact is probably inside out or switch them to see if you got them switched, you'll find out.

It's bad if you have different prescriptions. Can you see okay? If not, take them out, rinse them with saline, and switch eyes.
