Inserting Soft Lenses
Carefully remove a lens from its case, ensuring you select the correct lens for each eye. Place the lens in the palm of your hand and add a little soaking solution.
Place the lens on your forefinger and look at
the shape of the lens from the side. This
lens is inside out - note the shape of the
lens at the edges.
This lens is the correct way round. Using the
second finger of one hand, gently raise the
upper eyelid. Using the second finger of the other hand pull
down the lower eyelid slightly, and gently
place the lens onto your eye.
