-
Close nearby drains.
-
Pour
the right lens and storage solution
from the case into your palm. (It
is a good idea to get in the habit
of always working with the right lens
first to avoid mix-ups).
-
Make sure your fingers are clean and
dry. (Dry fingers facilitate the handling
since soft contact leneses tend to
stick to wet fingers.)
-
Place the right lens on the tip of
your index finger.
-
Using
the middle finger of your other hand,
pull and hold your upper lid so you
cannot blink.
-
Pull down your lower eyelid, using
the middle finger of your inserting
hand.
-
Look up and place the lens gently
on the lower white part of your eye.
-
Look down to position the lens correctly.
-
Slowly
release your eyelid and close your
eye for a moment.
-
Blink
several times to centre the lens on
your eye.
-
Sometimes,
small dust particles trapped behind
the lens during its placement can
cause discomfort.
-
To
remove dust, slide the lens off and
then back onto your cornea.
-
Insert
left lens following the same procedure.
