DD15 got contacts to try yesterday and she really liked them. BUT, she can't get them in or out! They had her take them out and put them in before we left the dr. office but once home it took her over an hour and a half to get them out last night and her eyes were very red and sore. Today she couldn't get them in. She did finally get one in but it was inside out and then she couldn't get it out. I ended up having to get it out for her. And again her eyes were all red and sore from the attempts.
I had contacts for years but had to give them up about 15 years ago. These new disposable contacts are so thin and flimsy that they are a pain. I sure don't remember contacts being like that 30 years ago and I don't remember having this much trouble at the beginning.
Any tips or advice? She can't keep her eye open, and when she does and she gets the contact near the darn thing folds up on itself or backwards on her finger. She did get it almost in a few times but it stuck to her finger and she couldn't get it to stay. When she pulls her finger away the contact is still on it.
DD19 also tried contacts a few years ago and had the same problems so she gave up after a few days. This daughter is DETERMINED to make this work, she hates wearing glasses. I am hoping someone has some tips or tricks to make the easier.
