Omfg, I cant see right. So I'm trying to put in some contact lenses so I can see in school. Problem is I can NOT get the sonnofabitches in or out. The doctor had to take them in and out and the employee had to convince him to let me take them home to practice for 2 weeks. First week ran out and I cant fuckin get these things in!!!!! I'm now afraid to get them in cuz I know I wont get them out. What the fuck! Some one help please. Sorry I'm going mad.

Sometimes I feel like this forum is my blog :p.

look its nothin, ur eyes will get used to then and u wont hurt. First 2 weeks is like hell i know but now, after 5 years waring cantacts, i can to it with no mirror and like 2secs to put each. Just dont give up on them thinkin that u might hurt ur eyes or something. No one can put em for the first time and feel nothin, its normal that u will feel weird the first month

lol its just wierd for me putting something on something as sensitive as my eyeball...i dunno the lady that gave me the contacts said it was easier for chick to put in cause they always put make up on close to the eye and stuff...or something like that ...i wasnt really listening i was being overwhelmed with the frustration tryin to put the god damn things in :p

HeyHeyHey don't give up.
I went through the exact same thing.
Solution: (I now wear glasses, but for other reasons, I like being able to take them off and on in an instant, less hassle, and they make me look SmarT) But anyways, for contacts, Initially, they will hurt like FUCK. You HAVE to get over that, it takes at least a full day for your eyes to feel comfortable wearing them. Also, the biggest, most important tip that the doctors seem to not be aware of: While you're putting them in, place a drop of solution inside the bowl, before you even put them in. If your eyes are dry, put some in your eyes beforehand as well.

ha, i just got those same exact ones about a week ago aswell. :)

basically, just take your right and and put the lense on your pointer finger and then hold the bottom eye lid open with your right hand middle finger, and take your left hand and old the upper lid open and poke your ball with your pointer finger (which has the lense on it). if it doesn't stick just readjust it and try again.

they don't hurt me anymore, and i've had them in since i've had them. the doctor said you can sleep with them for the 2 weeks before you throw them out. and i dunno if you've tried smoking with them in yet but it can get pretty fucking uncomfortable. :(

EDIT: oh yeah and to get them out just kinda pinch (SLIGHTLY... dont take your ball with the lense ha) the lense... say like you were pulled hair off your arm. that make any sense?

Lol meh, I never liked the hospital environment and I dont think I ever will. Out of all the shit I'm not afraid of the dentists and doctors scare me most with their friendly behavior, looking at their notepad and writing stuff down and breathin through their nose then looking up and smiling at me and going "i'll be right back" and I'm alone in that office just waiting. Hearing kids crying next door, my heart begins to beat and they come in with their gloves in their shirt pocket. WHY DIDNT THEY PUT THE GLOVES ON BEFOR THEY COME IN!? Then they slap on the gloves and put some cleaning shit on my arm. And thump the needle and AHHH! Lol...omfg sorry lol. I got a little...too into it there :p.

I have glasses, and I don't wear em. Don't really need them much, only helps when im burnt as hell and everything is blurry. I tried contacts as a substitute, and after about 30 mins in the morning for a week, I gave up, and never touched them again.

The first time I had contacts in my eyes I was too scared so my friend did it for me. That wasn't fun, I think it's worse to have someone stick their finger in your eyes. Anyway it's so easy now! They get dry and itchy when i'm baked >.<

I have a stigmatism so when I'm baked my freaking contacts fall right out.


Don't know why, and I'm not going to try to explain it.

:rasta:


It's actually a cool feeling but kinda annoying, it's like they flicker in my eye and I have to blink so they'll go back on.

its kinda like riding a bike.

it's gonna be hard at first... then once you get a hang of it you go do it without trying.
