I just got contact lenses yesterday, and had trouble putting them in this mornin!


Question: I just got contact lenses yesterday, and had trouble putting them in this morning!.!.!?
I've never worn contacts before and the girl at the doctor's office didn't really give me much advice on how to put them in!. She had me put them in, take them out once and that was it!. The problem I'm having with them is I get it on my eye and then I blink and it falls out!. What am I doing wrong!? I was able to get one to stay in after ten minutes, but the other one would go on and then fall off when i would blink! It was very frustrating and I'm wearing my glasses today!. What am I doing wrong and what can i do to keep them from falling out from blinking!? Is there an air bubble or something!? Also, I might have put them in their case wrong, the right one on the left side and vice versa!. Will i be able to tell which one is right and left!? Thanks, any tips would be greatly appreciated :)Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
I also recently got contact lens!. I've gotten pretty good at putting them in after a week of wearing them!. What the contacts fitting specialist told me to do is using the left index finger, hold your eyelids up (eyelash and all, since your contacts could be touching the lash and not the eye)!. with the right index, you should have the contacts on the finger (and make sure that it's not inside out) and use the right middle finger to pull down the area under your eyes (and it helps keep the hand steady)!. touch the contacts to your eyes until you feel like it's stuck to your eyes and slowly remove your fingers!. before you blink look around in circles with your eyes and then blink slowly!. I've gotten to point where i don't need to use my left hand and I found that it helps to move the contacts around with your finger to make sure it's in there completely before i blink!. i still use a mirror though!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Make sure your eyes are wetted enough!. I don't like to look in the mirror bc it freaks me out im touching my eye!. So I just wet my eye and put it on my finger and then in my eye because it is less stressful for me!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
