My contact will not stay on my eyeball...and I switched them...now this one won&!


Question: Whoever fit your contacts didn't do something right. I think you need to visit your optician or opthamologist again and get remeasured. It's very probable a critical measurement is off. That's what happens in the majority of cases. If you had your eyes done by an optometrist the first time, try having an opthamologist do the check the second time - they have far better equipment and training.

Some people (like myself) can't wear contacts (major bummer) because the blasted things kept popping out at the worst moments - like when I look over my shoulder to check on oncoming traffic- or turn my eyes suddenly to the side. Even the Johnson&Johnson ultra flexibles for astimatism weren't stable enough.

I finally gave up in disgust and have stayed with glasses. Unfortunately, I also don't qualify for laser eye because of other problems. So, I wear my 'fashion accessories' and keep hoping for the companies to invent contacts that will fit those of us in the minority.

I really don't have that problem unless my eyes dry out because of hot wind in my face. Are your eyes dry? Try some wetting solution sold over the counter. I am assuming, of course, that these are properly fitted contacts prescribed by a licensed doctor. If the problem continues, you should return to the doctor. If these are not prescription contacts, I would stop using them. There are a number of serious eye conditions that can be caused by "non prescription" contacts. You need to protect your eyes!

make sure it isn't inside out, and don't let go of your upper eyelid too soon. Otherwise, if they were actually perscribed, I can't help. You should probably go back to the eye doc if the problem persists.
