when you look at your contact.. it should look more like it's cupped. When it's flipped.. it's more open looking. That's the best way i can describe it and with ghetto picture here --> correct (_) not correct--> \_/

Hm...what Cliff said sounds about right.
I don't have that problem though, because I have hard contacts.

You'll get used to it fast...I did. I remember I was the same way but now I put them in the dark, with my eyes closed (j/k) and yeah, upside down, running, falling...anything you can think of *is that sushi*-->*runs*

It'll kind of hurt the first few times i think... o yeah... when u r putting them in... make sure that the contact is wet and that your eye is wet too (as in not all dried out from having it open too long)... think of slapping 2 pieces of wet newspaper together... it's like that. and also the finger you use to put the contact in... make sure it's like dry... i usually wipe it on a dry part on my other hand... cuz if your finger is reallie wet... the contact is never going to leave it... -__- it took me like 15 min to put it in the first few times... haha... good luck! ;)

Like hair products said, when you hold them up, look closely. If it's shaped like a bowl, it's correct. If the sides are a bit frayed out, then it's inside out. You'll know as you go on.
I don't know...but it's pretty easy for me to put them on and putting them off since day one. The only problem I had was it falling out and then losing them lol! Then I say, "Oh well, it's been a month since I changed my contacts," so I throw it away and get new ones. lol... |

Im using those. Hold them into light and you will see 123.....if you see it right way then your holding right way. Thats how I trained myself to see it right and soon i got use to it. |
