When Contact Lenses Fall Off the Fingertip

Video Transcript

"Hi! My name is Elton Hall and I'm from Texas State Optical in Austin, Texas. I’m here on behalf of Expert Village, and I'm going to show you how to insert and remove contact lenses. If you're having problems with the contact lens falling off your fingertip, depending on your prescription for most people. Depending on your prescription, if you have problems with the contact lens falling off of the fingertip, you want to try to put it to edge of the fingertip just like that. Depending on the prescription on the contact lens itself, you can put it a little bit closer to the side of the fingertip just like that. When you go in you'll have more motion. More room rather to get the contact lens on, but you're going to put it directly to the side of the fingertip. Instead of putting it in the middle if you noticed, I put it on the side over here. You can actually control it a little bit better. Make sure that you also wet the fingertip down just a little bit with solution to make sure that it kind of gives a, I would say, like a little blanket to the contact lens or something like that. Just make sure that you put it on the side, and it should stay for you. "
