  • I have no issues getting the lens in my eye. The problem is in the removal. That is what brought me to your channel in the first place - Your method for removal works amazing - Thank you!
  • Holding the lends isn't a problem... The blinking is the dam problem!!!
  • he’s being so chill and i’m freaking out for him
  • I love this guy! He’s so cute. And I laughed when that hard lens remover was stuck on his lens and his eyes went side to side!
  • You just made my life easier, I was taught to remove soft contacts by pinching them. I have so much trouble getting them out this way. After watching you video sliding them down and removing, changed my feeling about my contacts thank you keep making these videos please! I don't know why they taught me to pinch them but my first soft contacts were back in the mid 90s and I hated getting them out ever since! This week I finally got a new lenses that I have finally been and I can wear the for 9 hours, before I always had to have a full kit on me to remove them after 6. I did research and asked my optometrist for the brand I wanted to try, it is game changing.
  • I originally was watching your video to see about these tools! Watched it right the way to the end and you showed how you remove them normally! OMG why has no one showed me this before!!!! I have been pulling the eyes of myself for years trying to pinch them out. Now ever day this week I've got them out in 2 seconds!!! THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH literally saved my life!!!!!
  • Product review with lots of humor - best kind! Also, I learned things I should have learned when I first got contacts, 30 years ago. Thank you!
  • I’m pretty sure the silicone suction part (opposite side of the spoon) is what you’re suppose to use to put the contacts in and the tweezers to take them out 😅 (for the soft lenses similar to the hard contact applicator).
  • Thank you for doing this video. I am a 60 year old man using contacts for the first time and find the removal process difficult. I was looking at the products you featured and you saved me the time and effort of trying these products. There seems to be no easy way to do this.
  • Super useful video, I have been thinking about buying these products for a long time but didn't know if they'll be right for me but bc of this video ik that my fingers are best for both makeup and contact. Thanks!! (PS the grunts when the contacts drop, SUPER relatable lmaoo)
  • I have worn HARD contact lens for 60 years (yes, not a typo) and I never used tools to insert or remove them. I stand upright looking into a mirror, put the hard lens on my bottom lid and then raise the bottom lid to place the hard lens directly onto the pupil. Works well. To remove the RGP lens, I simply tug on my eyelid and they pop out. May take a couple of tries. My Optometrist just gave me a soft lens (not toric) to try and I struggled getting them in and out. Thanks for this video. Now I think I know how to manage the soft lens.
  • @novazo1
    I'm new to wearing contacts and been looking at applicators and been curious about them and when you showed how you removed it at the end I was thinking "I must of been doing something right" because I tried that. Still had difficulty doing it the other night but once you said dislodged now I know what else I should do. Currently I've only worn contacts twice and still deciding if I want dailies or long wears.
  • I like the tweezers. Not for anything other than picking up the contact out of the box. Basically it’ll help me not touch the inside of the lens making it basically spotless on my eye
  • Superb explanation ! Appreciate your efforts in educating patients using contact lens
  • Oh wow really appreciate your video, the information is so helpful! I always used RGP, and it was no problem removing them with DMV plunger. But I recently switched over to soft contacts and been having trouble removing my lens every night haha. I love your method using fingers, and some of these tools look super interesting, thank you so much for trying them all out!
  • This was the one of the most helpful and relatable videos that I have ever watched. Thank you for sharing.
  • Ur way to take out the contact lenses is actually helpful than the other creator, thankyou!
  • The best method I've found and safest to remove is. Dragging the eye down with one hand. Chin right in to give a double chin so its touching neck. Look up into the mirror which exposes the white of the eye at the bottom. You will see the lens sits about a mm around the colour part of eye. You will be aiming for where the colour part meets the white. Using your other hand shape it like this 👉 so you are pointing index at your nose. Place index finger on that mm of lens at bottom of colour part where it meets the white and drag. As you drag down don't just drag down straight it will just remain on the eye or go in bottom lid. Drag it like a 'J' shape following the shape of your nose. You need to keep slight pressure all the way down and it will flick the lens over the bottom lid when you complete the bottom of the J shape. Usually takes 1 to 3 drags but don't forget if you blink the lens moves back to the colour part. You must also keep eye still and focused to make sure your catching that mm at the bottom centre and watch it in the mirror. If you look side ways or up eg. not looking up into the mirror, you are just dragging the white part with no lens. Safe, no pinching, good for false nails too. Very easy 👌 The position would be 2.55 but with chin down, look up into mirror and his R hand (one with stick) like 👈 Let me know if it helped anyone below.
  • you said the first item you used could be good if you cant wash your hands but it calls for the item to be washed a few times with hot water so i doubt it could be of any use then either
