How to Remove Contact Lenses

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. After you get the contact lens in, what's going to happen. If you saw earlier, what's going to happen is it's going to have an air bubble directly under the contact lens. What you want to do is as soon as you get it on, you want to take the contact lens and move it around just a little bit. Just like that. Kind of wiggle it around a little bit to kind of break some of the air, and it'll release itself directly out of the bottom. If it feels uncomfortable, which is may when you first put the contact lens on. You will probably feel the edges of the contact lens. Around the edges of it because it may not be sitting properly. What you want to do is you want to take it like I did just a minute ago. Take your fingertip and move it. Directly on the contact lens and move it around. Move it just like that and position the contact lens. It should feel a little bit more comfortable for you. If it doesn't, you want to take the contact lens out and reinsert.
