what's the trick to putting contact lenses in your eyes?

Answer 1

Patience and lots of it.

Take your time. If you rush it, you'll only end up hurting yourself or damaging a lense.

Also, practice. If you're new to contacts, it's a good idea to practice putting them in and taking them out.

Answer 2

It can be tricky at first.

Clean the lens throughly with solution and place on your index finger (making sure your hands are clean, but that you have rinsed all the soap off properly, otherwise it will sting).

The open your eyes as wide as you can, using the muscles around your eyes to hold them open (i used to find that if i held my eye open with my fingers I couldn't help but blink). And then put it over the coloured part of your eye. Leave your eye open for about half second until you feel a kind of suction effect happening and then close and relax...

Hope that helps.

Answer 3

the 'trick' is not to press them against your eyeballs.
if you get them close enough to barely touch your eyes they will stick to them, like a magnet. If you do to much pressure, the contact will stay in your finger. At least that was what happened to me before I realised this.
Oh, and open your eyes as much as you can.

Answer 4

uhm.look up and slide it in from the bottom and just blink it into place.
try that.
hope it works
