There must be something wrong with me. For the life of me, I cannot removeĀ a soft contact lense from my eyes! I sat patiently with the Doctor guiding me and after 30 minutes we gave up and decided to give my eyes a break. I was instructed NOT to put the contacts in until tomorrow. I think the Doctor thinks I am doomed. I guess contacts aren’t for everyone
He also told me I have to use the antibiotic drops for the next day or two to avoid infection, since I grabbed at my eyeballs quite a bit in my removal journey.
The issue is that when I think I am moving the lense to the side or towards the bottom of my eye, I am really not moving it. And then when I proceed to take it out, I am just poking myself in the eye and not even touching the lense. My lenses are so thin that I can barely feel them! I have to look in the mirror to see the lense actually slide and then take it out but if I watch myself go at my eye, it makes me blink! That’s my dilemma. Oh well. I am going to try again tomorrow during regular business hours just in case I’m having issues I can see my doctor that day.
Suggestions?
