10 minutes is a good time for the first day.

you will have to find out the best way by yourself and that will come slowly and with time.
I suggest for now though, that you dont make putting in contacts a last minute thing.

generally though, there is a certain spot on your finger you want to balance it on, and you want the right kind of angle.

I personally do my left eye first, as I find that the harder one to do.
if you get it in your eye, but aren't sure it is going to stay if you blink, you can try moving it around until it clicks, or lift up your eyelid and place it over the contact.

but pretty much everything is going to be based on preference. after a few months, 30 seconds shouldnt be a problem.

As everyone else said, it takes a long time at first.

Now, takes me from 10 seconds in the morning to a minute - depending on how rested I am.

I always do the right eye. For some reason, I always use 2 hands to put in my contacts. Always my right index finger to put the contact in and the left hand to push down above my cheek to open up my eyes.


And I never heard of soft contacts screwing up your eyes. I imagine you have sources?

after like 8 years of wearing them i can do it in 1 second with one hand, your eyes just have to get tougher so they stay open when you try to take the contacts out

Wait how do soft contacts mess up your vision? My myopia is caused by the muscles in my eyes losing their ability to reduce the refractive power of my corneas, if I understand it correctly. The contact doesn't touch the muscle. So, how does it matter?

Also, I'd probably not wear them every day.


if your not gonna wear it everyday then you could try going with soft..your choice
