Answer 1

i have soft contacts and the trick is to put them on the tips of you finger, then open you eyes really wide with your fingers then...align them with your pupils and put them in from bottom to top. if that doesnt work try putting them in from bottom to top, and when they try to go out, slide your fingers on the bottom of your eyes (i dont know what they are called) it might sting if you do it l;ike 10 times in a row, but it works:)

Answer 2

I have soft contacts and I would say practice makes perfect. A good tip though would be to keep you finger as dry as possible before you place the contact on it so it won't want to stick to your finger. Another tip is to Use the other hand to keep the eye open especially the bottom lid(the bottom lid is the one that makes the contact only go in half way.  

Answer 3

Soft contacts are pretty tricky to put in at first, but once you get them in you're good to go.

Wash your hands thoroughly, then dry them until a speck on water isn't present.  Empty out the contact onto your hand and thoroughly drain the liquid from the contact, put it on the tip of your finger so the contact makes a bowl.  Look down at the ground and pull eye open with the index finger of one hand on the top lid, and the middle finger of the other hand.

Looking down at the ground makes it far easier than looking in a mirror.  If the contact goes flat, straight it up and pour a bit of saline solutine on it.

Good luck.

Answer 5

If you have small or sensitive eyes, you should make sure your fingers are dry, and pull your eyes REALLY wide.  If you sweat a lot, use a napkin or tissue to do this.

Put contact on your eye (using the pointer finger on the hand holding the lower part of you eye), and shift the contact between the eye and the skin.  remove your hands, blink, and wait a couple seconds for the contact to settle.
