OMG! I cant figure out if the contacts are Inside Out!!?!
Question: im getting frustrated because I cant figure out if the contacts are inside out. I tried the TACO thing and it folds like a taco both wayss. I look at it both ways for like 5 minutes each and both sides look exactly the same. I have FOCUS Dailies. Any other way to know if they are inside out?

If you can't tell by looking at it, then just try putting it in your eye.
If it doesn't feel good or keeps folding when you blink, then it's inside out.
If it's folding the same both ways with the " taco " method , it's because your lens is a bit too dry or you are squeezing it a bit too hard.
When they're right side up they look like a bowl...when they're upside down they're not a perfect bowl...the ends are facing outwards more not curved perfectly.
if u hold them up to the light, there should be a 123 ON THE OUTSIDE if they are 321 ON THE OUTSIDE then they are insideout. but this might just be mine
I don't know about the taco thing; here's what I do know: when the contact is inside out, it will have a slight 'lip' on the edge of it. Hard to notice untill you flip it right-side up. It works for me. Good luck!
The trick is to place the lens on your finger so that a cup is formed. Then, hold the lens up directly in front of your eyes so you're looking at the side of the cup. If the lens forms a "U" with the top edges flared out, it's inside out. If it forms just a "U," it's in the correct position.For all details, information and remedies about contacts check out http://use-contactlens.blogspot.com/
ok, I have had this problem. when you put the contact on your finger it should look like a bowl. if it doesn't there is a chance it could be inside out. the way I determine it is when I put it on my finger it needs to look like a bowl, but if it looks like a clay pot that has its wings hanging out then that is suppose to mean it is inside out. hope I helped = ]
