Colored Contacts


Question Posted Sunday December 3 2006, 8:19 pm

So, i just got these colored contacts. And i have spent probably about 5-6 hours trying to get them in [not in one time period] My mom got them to go in hers, and a friend of mine got them to go in his. I cant get them in mine! I have tried everything, they tried to get it in mine NOTHING WORKS! So, maybe its because i have smallish eyes, so would i be able to get contacts that are small? Or are they all standard sizes? Or is there a certain trick?

If you have an answer let me know please!

thank you so much.

It took me forever to get my contacts in the first time. I had to have my eye doctor help me and show me how to do it my very first try. Maybe you could have them help you, since they are experts at that sort of thing. I'm sure they could have a trick for you to help you get them in easy.
When you are putting them in, hold the contact out on your first finger. Look at the contact, there is a certain way it has to go into your eye. The way that it is supposed to go in your eye, the edges don't flip out. If you are holding it the wrong way, then the edge of the contact will flip out and will hurt if you try to put it into your eye.
When you put your contact in your eye, hold both top and bottom eyelid with one hand. This will prevent you from blinking as you are trying to put the contact in.
Also make sure there is nothing on the contact before you put them into your eye. Even the tiniest little piece of lint can hurt really bad.
Put makeup on after you put your contacts in, if you use it! Mascara and eyeliner can get in your contact as you are trying to put it in, which will just make you take longer putting your contact in. You will also have to redo your makeup!!
Putting contacts in the first time takes patience. Chances are, you are just like any other person in the world who is struggling to get their first contacts in. I've never heard of anyone having to get special contacts because they have small eyes. So I don't think that is the case. But just keep trying, and set a goal to get them in. Ask a parent or friend that has contacts to watch you put your contacts in and tell you if you are doing it right. Maybe they can give you some pointers, since they are right there watching. Good luck!

most contacts that are tricky, can be easily inserted if you do it a certain way.

most of the time, i look to the far right corner, and stick the contact in the far left side of my eye, and then close my eyelid and swivel my eyelid around for a while, and you can feel it go into place.

if that doesn't work, ask you eye doctor about specific brands that would fit your eye shape better, my brother's eyes aren't as curved, so he has special contacts that fit his eyes, so i'm sure they'll make them smaller!

good luck!
