That is pretty normal. It took me a few weeks to master putting my lenses in. Now 17 years later and I'm a pro but still have an occassional bad morning...but even then it takes me under a minute. You'll get the hang of it. 15 minutes is not that bad for a beginner. I'd say by 3-4 weeks you will be able to do it the first try every morning. Good luck

It took me some adjusting when I first got contact lenses. I had to learn to touch my eyeballs without flinching. Once I mastered that, contact lenses were a breeze. However, I never could adjust to hard lenses.

I was able to get them in and out within 2 or 3 minutes at the doctor's office, but I think your experience is more "normal" than mine.
You're doing fine, just keep at it and be patient.

Under a week to master it but over time you put them in quicker. When you find a technique that is suitable for you, it becomes really easy.

Depends on the individual. I was ok after a few weeks. Just takes practice but you'll get there eventually.
