How to tell if your contact is inside out?!
Question: How to tell if your contact is inside out!?
I've tried a lot of ways to find out!. I've tried the pinch method (not sure how 'outwards' the edges are supposed to look like), and the bowl and saucer method!. I don't know what to do!.!.!.
everytime I try to put my contacts in, it feels like one contact is in inside out!.!. my vision is a bit blurry and then it gets normal after 10 minutes!.
Could someone show me some photos of how the thumb and finger method is like!?Www@Answer-Health@Com

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!.
If you're wearing lenses with a handling tint, another method is to place the lens on your fingertip and then look down at it!. The edge of a tinted lens should look very blue (or green, depending on the tint); that won't be the case if the lens is inverted!.
Some contact lenses also have a laser marking, such as the brand name, on the edge to help you!. If you can read it properly, the lens is not inside out!. Don't worry if you place a contact lens in your eye inside out!. The lens will feel uncomfortable, but it can't do any damage!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Try the "taco test!." Put the lens on the crease in the palm of your hand and try to fold it by closing your palm a bit!. The lens should fold on itself like a taco if it is right side out!. If it resists folding then it's inside out!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
