Question:
I'm having problems with my contacts. I have a really hard time getting them in.?
After I finally get them in it burns for like 2 mintues. I think they maybe inside out. I've tried to look at them but I don't see a "U" one way and a "V" the other way, it looks the same both ways to me. Any tips?
Answers:
The way it was explained to me if they are inside out, when you look at them, they will have a slight lip around the edge, rather than a perfect curve.
After you put your contacts in, if you blink and the contact obviously shifts, they are inside out.
Sometimes I've had the burning sensation and it went away and I could see fine, it happens if you have traces of something on your hand, or you didn't clean your contacts well enough, or a stray hair, or piece of dust floated into your contact as you were putting them in.
If the burning lasts longer than 2 minutes, I would take them out clean them really well, and re-insert, if still burning, try a new pair of contacts.
