I can't seem to put my circle lenses on, help?!


Question: I can't seem to put my circle lenses on, help?
I bought circle lenses and they're blue. I tried so many times, for hours... Ugh, i get so frustrated! I know how to put it on, but it just never seems to work.. Any suggestions or tips?
Also, I'm double jointed in the fingers, and my fingers aren't straight at all..

I'm assuming you mean contact lenses; I'm from the US and I don't know if they're called anything different in other places

First off, if you bought them and they weren't prescribed by a doctor, I'd just like to advise you to use caution because they may not be good for your eyes. However, I do realize that that is not the question you're asking, so I'll let you make that decision.

This is how I put in lenses: First, wash your hands to make sure they are clean. Then, take the lens out of the case and rinse it with solution to make sure there is no dirt or residue on the lenses. Then put the lens with the concave side up on the tip of your first finger on your dominant hand. Then, using your other hand, hold both your top and bottom eyelids apart using your thumb and first finger. Look up while inserting the contact lens so that it does not contact the colored part of your eye first. While looking up, bring the finger with the lens on it slowly towards your eye, and allow the lens to make contact with the white part of your eye. Then, slowly look down so that the lens slides over the colored part of your eye. Then, I suggest closing your eyes and pressing GENTLY on your eyelid using a tissue. This will help to press any bubbles out of the lens.

Hope that helps =)
