Contact Lenses used inside out can harm your eye.
And give your eyes a break every now and then as contacts tend to absorb the little moisture that have left on our eyes!
Make sure they don't have any cuts and keep them clean to avoid infection!!
Is my contact lens inside out?
The difference can be subtle, but before placing a
contact lens on your eye, make sure it looks like
half a ball, not a soup bowl with a rim.
The trick is to place the lens on your finger so that a cup is formed. Then hold the lens up directly in front of you
r eyes so you're looking at the side of the cup.
If the lens forms a "U" with the top edges flared out, it's inside out. If it forms just a "U," it's in the correct position.
Some contact lenses have a laser marking, such as the brand name, on the edge to help you. If you can read it properly, the lens is not inside out.
Don't worry if you place a contact lens in your eye inside out. The lens will feel uncomfortable, but it can't do any damage.
