What to do if you can't put on your colored contact lenses? A beginner's guide to wearing colored contact lenses

I bought a pair of colored contact lenses to create different makeup looks, but I can't put them on for a long time. What should I do? How should a novice wear colored contact lenses?

Reason 1: Incorrect wearing method

Wearing cosmetic contact lenses is not as simple as opening your eyes wide and putting the lenses in. In actual operation, you still have to follow the correct method, which will allow you to put on the lenses quickly and protect your eyes.

First, trim your nails and wash your hands. Then, facing the mirror, place the lens on your right index finger (distinguish the front and back), then use your right middle finger to gently pull the lower eyelid of your right eye, and your left index finger to gently pull the upper eyelid of your right eye, until the black eyeball is completely exposed to the air (pay attention to the eye hair), then slowly move the lens on your right index finger towards the eyeball. When it is attached to the eyeball, the lens will automatically absorb. At this time, slowly close your eyes and gently rotate your eyeball a few times to make it fit better.

Reason 2: Unskilled operation

When wearing contact lenses for the first time, even if you know the correct wearing method, it is inevitable that you will be unfamiliar with it because it is your first attempt. It is very normal that the lenses cannot be put on. Don't be anxious at this time, try slowly. If it doesn't work once, try again. As long as the method is normal and you find the feeling, it is easy to put them on. It should be noted that many people have sensitive eyes. When the lenses are close to them, they will blink, which will cause the lenses to not be put on. This also requires more attempts. The fingers holding the eyelids should also be slightly forceful. Do not blink, and do not let them touch the eyelashes.

Reason 3: The lens is not suitable

For the first time, Xiaohe does not recommend daily disposable contact lenses, because daily disposable lenses have poor formability, high water content, and are very soft, making it difficult for first-time wearers to put them into their eyes. For the first time, you can choose some long-term lenses, which are easy to put on and take off, and also easy to master the wearing method.

In good light, find a large mirror and place it on a table or stool.

Open the box containing the contact lenses and take out the fitting stick and tweezers.

Use tweezers to pick up one of the contact lenses and place it on the wearing rod (pay attention to the front and back of the contact lens).

Keep your eyes as close to the mirror as possible, open your eyes wide, and look directly into the mirror.

Use one hand to open your upper and lower eyelids (as wide as possible) and keep your eyes still.

Slowly bring the wearing stick with the contact lens closer to the eyeball. Do not blink. Let the edge of the contact lens touch the eyeball first until the entire lens fits the eyeball. Turn the eyeball up and down, left and right, and close your eyes and press lightly.

You may not be able to put them on smoothly the first time, so be patient. If you can't put them on, don't force them in, put the contact lenses back into the care solution and then take them out.

The diameter of the cosmetic contact lens is generally 13.8mm-14.5mm. We recommend that you do not blindly choose cosmetic contact lenses with a diameter that is too large. The width of the palpebral fissure of Asians is usually within 15mm. If the diameter of the cosmetic contact lens exceeds the width of the palpebral fissure, it will cause eye rubbing or affect the opening and closing of the eyelids. The recommended diameter of the color contact lens is within 14mm~14.5mm, which has both the enlargement effect and the comfortable wearing feeling. Go to the Meiyan official website to check the enlargement effect of cosmetic contact lenses of different diameters and choose the one that suits you.
