OK, well, I've always had a problem getting soft contacts in...i could put the hard ones in because they're small...since i want to get day and night contacts and i want to get contacts im sick of glasses//taking them in and out every day does anyone have any like techniques for putting them in? thank you!
1. Open your eye wide with your fingers.
2. Get the contact on your fingers.
3. When you are ready to put the contact in, look at something in the room, say a place on the wall. That way the contact wont be put DIRECTLY on your pupil. This hurts a lot less for some people. Hope I have helped :] [ lookitslorin's advice column | Ask lookitslorin A Question ]

- make sure you have nothing on your fingers
- put the contact on your right pointer finger, in the shape of a bowl
- with you left hands pointer finger pull the top of your eye up (enabaling you to blink)
- then with your right middle finger pull down the bottom of your eye
- leaving you your right pointer finger right there
- look into the mirror and put it on your pupil.
- it should stick.
- blink
- if it doesnt work try again.

1. Put the contact on ur finger bowl shaped.
2. Make sure there isn't anything on the contact.
3. Look straight into the mirror.
4. Put the contact on your pupil.
5. Move your eye around before blinking
I know at the eye doctors they show you how to without looking in the mirror, but its easier to look and there are no harmful side affects.
