I'm So Frustrated!! Please help me!!?

Question

I just bought some green contact lenses on sunday and i really want to wear them. My best friend who knows how to put them in really good, put them in for me and i looked really pretty with them. But now i'm back home and trying to practice putting them in so i can wear them in the 1st day of school. No these are not prescription lenses, they're cosmetic lenses. So if you know how to put them in (and take them out) really good can you please tell me and be very descriptive or if you know of a video or website link that would be helpful too! Thanks!! i really need help because i cant stop blinking and its making me angry because i cant put it in. So please help me!!

Answer 1

I wear contacts every day so hopefully this can be of some help to you.  I think with your blinking issue, your problem might be that the contacts are too dry and are irritating your eyes right when you first put them in.  Here's what i do, put the contact on the index finger of the hand you use for everything, i'm right handed, so I use my right. make sure the contact is not inside out or anything because that can also really irritate everything. If the contact is inside out, it would look like an umbrella that got flipped inside out in the wind.  Then, fill the contact up about halfway with whatever solution you're using, or even some visine eye drops.  fill up the contact like a bowl, about half way, not so full that when you move your finger vertically, it all falls out, only a few drops.  Hold your bottom eye lid down with the middle finger of the "contact hand" and hold your top eye lid open with the index finder of your other hand.  touch the bottom edge of the contact to your eye first. the drops in the contact should pull the contact on to your eye and do the fitting for you.  you might have to move it around a little bit but i think that having moisture in it really is key.

i know this is really long, but i wanted to be really clear. hope i helped.

Answer 3

I have been wearing perscription contacts for years! First off, always wash your hands before touching your contacts or eyes. To put them in, you should put the lens on your pointer finger, at the tip. With your other hand, gently pull down on the bottom lid of your eye to make it wider and easier to place the contact in. Infront of a mirror, press the contact to your eye, and blink once. If it feels uncomfortable, it might just be because your not used to it. But if the contact falls out, then you didnt do it properly. If that happens, just put it back into the solution and try again!

To take out, you place your pointer finger tip on your eye, making sure that your contact is underneath. Take your other hand, and gently pull down on your bottom eyelid again. Using your finger and your thumb, pinch carefully where you know the contact should be (if you pinch your actual eye, it's not a big deal).

If you need some more information, or I could make a quick tutorial, just message me.

Answer 4

It takes PRACTICE!

Firstly, make sure you have clean hands. You place the lense on the tip of your index finger on your right hand (make sure it's the right way round by making sure it's not a saucer shape that looks like it has a lip). Now looking into a mirror obviously, using your left hand you take your middle finger and closing your eyes you place it just above your eyelashes, and then you pull your eyelid up. You must make sure you are gripping it tight! Then use the middle finger on your right hand to pull the bottom lid of your eyes down, and then look forward, and gently place the contact lense onto your eyeball in the middle of your eye. Now you will have the obvious reflex of blinking, but i find that if you don't think about it and grip your eye up real tight, you can prevent yourself from not blinking. You only blink because you think about it. Keep on repeating this until you eventually get it in your eye! As for taking them out, you pull the bottom lid of your eye down and with your index finger and middle finger, you carefully pinch the middle of the lense and bring it out. Ouila!  :)

Answer 5

You're probably just trying to shove it in directly, which is really frustrating . You have to take your 2 left fingers and pry open your eyelids and use your right pointer finger and place it right on the colored part. Then look all over crazy-eyes style and then close your eye. To get them out, hold your eye open the same way and stick your pointer finger right on the contact, which should be in the middle if you're looking straight forward.

I watch my sister ALL the time.

And where did you get green cosmetic lenses?? I've always really wanted some green ones! Message me, please!

Answer 6

my bro wears prescription contacts and i watch

him put them in allll theeee time. lol.

just use either right err left hand and take your

thumb and pointer finger and open your lids and put the

contact on your middle finger and just dont blink

and put it in...

or you can open your lids with one hand and place

the contact on the pointer finger of the other hand and

just pop it in...

when taking them out just use your pointer

finger and thumb to pull it out, slowy. and make sure your nails

are short or else it might hurt. OH YEAHH. and make sure

you wash your hands before touching your eye...

Answer 7

YOU HAVE TO PRACTICE !!!!

Put the convex part on your index finger, tilt head back. Look up and try to look away with eyeball only from your finger that is putting in the lense.  Put the lense nearer the inner corner of your eye but totally within your eyeball (not on your upper or lower lid at all as it will not float to the curviture of your eye).

PRACTICE..............................

Answer 8

it took me a week to do this

first open youre eye and slide the contact from the bottom

keep your eye open becus if you close it the contact willl fall out

soo do that when putting them in

When taking them out  just fastly grab them out

like if youre pinching a pinch of salt

do it swiftly

luck
