I had my contact lenses in for 2 days and probably have put a full workday of effort to get them out. This is my 4th video, countless views of them all, and the second of yours. Of all the methods I found the second method of simply dragging the contact lens down until it buckles, provided the simplest steps and the easiest to follow. It only took 3 attempts between both eyes...lol. Thank you. I now officially feel confident that I can successfully remove contacts.

MARTIN!!! I cannot thank you enough for making this video! After three training appointments spanning about three hours of time, I was still struggling to take out my contacts. Your DETAILED DESCRIPTIONS and line by line tips and visuals was SO INCREDIBLY HELPFUL and I learned more in the 3 minute video than I got from 3 hours of in person “training.” From someone who was worried she wasn’t going to be able to wear contacts, THANK YOU FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART!! ❤🙏

The 2nd method was the best, I removed the lens successfully first try after trying the first method for 30 minutes. Thank you so much for your help!

Thank you so much! I have been struggling with the pinching method for two hours already. With your 2 method I did it in 5 minutes. Thanks. This is my first day using lenses.

I am C5-6 quadriplegic that recently learned to put my contacts in. And I was shocked how easily I put them in. However, perfecting the right way to get them out has been hard. I pray that working my hand will give me more hand strength to pinch and grab it out. Or I can perfect raking it down to pop out. But thank you for this video. Wish there was a pinching tool or small suction cup way to grab the contact that can't hurt your eye. (I got patent on idea if it makes millions lol) Contacts can be so amazing or so aggravating when they don't cooperate.

I just started wearing contacts a couple of days ago, and I find the third method is easier for me. I appreciate the insight from this and other videos!

Why does the second method good for those with long fingernails? Do you mean the finger nails can help remove the lens? That is scary cos it can scratch the cornea right??
@ovelyy_2 жыл бұрын
its good for long fingernails because the pinching motion is not involved

Thank God, I found this video. This is literally what KZbin is made for I personally couldn't do number one for the life of me but holy s*** within 15 seconds method. 2. Worked for me and I am f****** grateful. I'm 31 years old and just got contacts yesterday for the first time in my life and I've worn glasses of my entire existence and to be honest I love being able to wear a contacts and being able to wear sunglasses normal sunglasses I should add for the first time. I look far better. However, I was starting to be legitimately upset at the fact that I didn't think I was going to be able to do it because if I had to go through the past 3 hours again every single day, I wouldn't wish that on anybody

This doesn't work. No video on youtube works. I hate contacts I am never wearing them again. I wouldn't wish this pain on my worst enemy.
