Contact lenses

Ive had my contacts now for about a week(ish) so was wondering if anyone else has them and if so ahve you got any tips or tricks with them? The way i was shown to take them out is by far the most unplesent feeling ive had for a long time.

Re: Contact lenses

All you can do is persevere, you work will work out your own method. I used to hold down my bottom lid with my middle finger, then use my thumb and my index finger to pinch the lense and take it out.

After 2-3 weeks you'll be an expert at it.

I've been wearing them for several years now and found it relly tricky at first, i always found putting them in harder than taking them out, i take them out by pulling down my lower lid then pinching them. i think it'll just take a bit of time to get used to them.

Re: Contact lenses

I used to think that as I am very squeamish when it comes to messing with the eyes, but after a few times it becomes quite normal. I have to say though best thing I ever did was get my eyes lasered.
