Contact lenses are a great thing to have, but because they come in contact with the human cornea, they need to be worn under the professional guidance of an ophthalmologist to be safer and more effective. I have contacted many patients who wear contact lenses and found that many people actually lack a certain understanding of contact lens care, especially because they can’t remove their contact lenses, and many of them grab their contact lenses directly from the cornea, which is very dangerous and can easily injure the cornea, so today I will teach you how to properly remove soft contact lenses. Steps (take the left eye contact lens for example): open the eyelid, must hold: the left hand lifts the upper eyelid, the right middle finger pulls down the lower eyelid. Eye-hand coordination, very critical: the right index finger gently touches the contact lens while doing the following two actions (index finger slides the lens to the direction of the ear + left eye turns toward the nose), the advantage of doing so is that the contact lens is transferred to the bulbar conjunctiva, which will not hurt the cornea, and because of the different curvature, the contact lens will have a distinct protrusion, which is easy to grasp. Removal is now so simple: the right thumb and index finger grab the contact lens that has protruded in a smooth manner, and the job is done.
