I went for the third time today to try and put contacts in and out but can't do it. Help.

Question

I can hold my eye open i just can't do the final push of my finger into my eye. How can I get over this?

Answer 1

Make sure you are looking to either the right or left when your doing it, but not straight ahead. This way you aren't actually putting the contact right on your pupil, but on the side of your eye. Once you blink it will move to the right spot. Also remember when you get the contact onto your eye and off your finger, that you let go of your bottom eyelid first. It really works.

Answer 2

What I do is I gently put it on my eye so it stays on a little bit, then I look in different directions until it doesn't move around anymore or i feel like there isn't an air bubble on it anymore, then I blink and it's better.
