thanks on that clarification, i assumed ppl could decipher it with the context clues, i guess i just made myself an ***..

pull your eye down and look up.. touch contact to eye.. then look straight at your finger..

It helps if the contact is wet, but your finger is dry (they stick to your finger less)...

I always rinse them, then dry my finger tip on the inside of my elbow...

btw why in the hell did you get contacts you have to take out?!

You should get the ones you wear for a month and then throw away... i wear focus night and days..ftw

changing lenses every month > taking them out every night

to be honest i have had mine for 2-3 years and still cant put them in with one hand (havent really tried though.)

i think the problem is your finger being too wet..

i can never get the dam thing off the tip of my finger unless it my finger is really dry...
