Everyone is new to everything at least once, and until you have gotten used to it you will have a hard time accomplishing it, wearing Contact Lenses is just the same, so please do not let yourself want to quit remember if it is difficult at first to put in contacts, you may only require practice, maybe a reminder on how to put in contacts. you might even need a device that can help you put in contacts.
I am aware that when you are still having a hard time with putting in contacts it seems ridiculous when you hear someone say it is easy to put in contacts, but it really can be easy to put in contacts, either by training over and over or by buying a tool to make putting in contacts easy it will eventually be easy to put in contacts for you too.
By far the easiest way to put in contacts is to use a contact lens inserter
1. Clean the EyePOD Eye Care Kit. The EyePOD Contact Lens Inserter was designed with anti-microbial agents In the plastics that the EyePOD is made of so the EyePOD does work to keep itself cleaner, but giving any object that is going to go in your eye a washing is usually a good policy to have.
2. You should Start by Opening your Contact Lens Case, and then put eye pod contact lens inserter on the contact, Next, rinse the contact lens carefully with the lens cleaner.
3. Now lift the EyePOD with the contact lens on the adapter bringing it up to eye level, Look into the tube in the center
4. Now While holding your eye wide open, draw the Contact Lens closer to your eye and gently press, remember to keep your eye open until you have put your contact lens on your eye.
And Now do it again one more time for the other eye.
Or, If you do not own a Contact Lens Inserter, you will have to do it using the old way.
1. You should wash your hands carefully. It is a good idea for you to air dry your hands, because drying off with a towel or with a cloth can potentially put tiny fibers on your hands that will be nasty to get on your contact and in your eye.
2. You will want to open the contact lens case and then you will use your index finger and take the lens from the contact lens case.
3. Now rinse the contact lens carefully with your contact lens cleaner.
4. Next, You have to use your middle finger and pull open your lower lid.
5. Next, You want to delicately place your lens on the center of your eye then release your lower eyelid, and then you need to blink your eye in order to properly seat the contact lens in your eye.
And Now repeat it one last time for the other eye.
