| So I went to the eye doctor yesterday and naturally, she was unable to put the contacts in. But all of the hopeful things I read here are defenitly helping. Due to my friend's advice he said that what he does is (for the right eye): 1. Take the middle finger of your left hand and pull up on the top eyelid. 2. Take the middle finger of your right hand and pull down on the bottom eyelid. 3. Look far left, trying to focus on some random object. 4. Then place it in. I don't have my contacts, or contacts to practice with so I'm kind of just here practicing. I just do that routine and brush against the white of my eye. The eye doctor said to brush your eyelashes and wave your finger close to your eye so you'll eventually be de-sensitized. The worst part of the whole process though is when you have a person waiting right next to you trying to put the contact in, except you are keeping them there because you can't get over it. Sometimes I'd prefer to do things alone, ya know? Well anyway good luck to all of you strugglers out there!! I know a bunch of people who have had troubles with contacts, then have eventually mastered it. |
