Contact Lens

A contact lens is a corrective, cosmetic or therapeutic lens usually placed on the cornea of the eye. Contact lenses usually serve the same corrective purpose as glasses. In cosmetics, cosmetic lenses are colored to alter the appearance of the eye. The difference can be fine, make sure it looks like half a ball, not a soup bowl with a rim.

Right Way Applying the Contact Lens…

2. Slide the lens out of its case and into the palm of hand. Rinse thoroughly with the appropriate contact lens solution.
3. Place the contact lens on the tip of index or middle finger should be dry or mostly dry.
4. With the fingers and thumb of your other hand pull up upper eyelid and lower eyelid.
5. Position the lens on eye while looking upward or forward. Apply the contact lens by placing it on the white of the eye closest to ear.
6. Roll your eyes in a complete circle to help the lens settle, then blink.

Removing of the Contact Lens…

1. Always wash hands before removing contact lenses. To remove soft contact lenses, look upward or sideways while pull down the lower eyelid.
2. With a finger, gently remove the lens from the white of your eye. There can very gently pinch the lens together with index finger and thumb and lift it off the eye.
3. Right contact lens can be removed by holding out the palm of hand, bending over and then opening eye wide. With one finger of the other hand, pull on the skin of eye's outside corner straight out toward ear with eye wide open.
4. Then blink. The contact lens should remove right out and into open palm.

Eye Makeup and Contact Lens…

Put in contact lenses before applying makeup. Never apply eyeliner between lashes and eye. Cream eye shadow is less likely to get in the eye than powder. Apply eyeliner only on the portion of lashes that is well away from eye. Do not use old eye makeup, because over time bacteria will get into the product and then into the eyes, where it can cause an infection. There are many new colored contact lens like grey, brown, green, blue and so on.
