HATE THE CONTACTS

[judecorp]

It just took me a ridiculous amount of time to take my right contact out. My right contact is harder to get out than my left I guess because of trying to fit my right thumb in the little corner of my eye. Yuck. Anyway, I couldn't get it out and scratched my eye a million times in the process. And then eventually it was out.

...and it is misshapen. Obviously that explains how hard it was to get out or whatever but how would that happen? I have worn these contacts all of 5 times and they are 30 wear lenses. Why would it get warped? It's like it's bent or has a ripple in the edge. WTF? And now my eye is all kinds of irritated.

I am so cheesed about this. I wish I hadn't ordered more contacts. HATE.

You sound like me when I first got mine (granted I was 12 ;) ). PATIENCE. They are so worth it. I'm wearing my glasses right now and am miserable. Can't see as well AT ALL.

Soak the contact. Next time, if you can't get it out after a few tries, wet it (get contact lens drops - make sure they're safe for contacts!) and then try again. I may make you a video of how I take out my contacts ;)

Agree with this. When I switched from hard to soft lenses, I had to wet my eyes constantly, and if I wear my lenses more than 14 hours, I need to re-wet my eyes before I take them out.
