    The instructions were useless and it took me 45 minutes to get them in the first time :rolleyes:

    I've perfected the technique now though. If you blink before it's centered, it scrunches up. Sometimes u gotta prod it to get a crease out hehehe. Pretty gross :D

    i'd love to buy some of them to wear, but i think the closer my finger gets to my eye to put them in, the further away my head would get !! :blush:

    looks cool though money waster ;)

    Hehe I was like that too. Can't put them on your eye too fast or they turn inside out, and if you take too long your eyeball dries up and you blink without thinking which means you gotta start again :p

    I think prescription ones have limited choices. You can wear them with glasses, why not?

    aww man i wish i could get a pair of those, ive been wanting some dodgy contacts for years but my eyesight is so fubared that the contacts i wear have to be hard ones that are specially shaped to my eyes and are about £400, and even if i had an extra £400 to play with i still couldnt get them cos they are only just teh size of my pupil

    :waah: :waah:
    poor me

    why you say that? they are really easy to get in, a hell of alot easier than soft ones anyway, i can just put them on the ond of my finger and put them in my eye, dont need to hold it open or lean over or anythgin

    theyre pretty easy to get out as well, just have to putt my eyelid and blink and they drop out

    I've heard too many stories of those cosmetic lenses scratching people's retinas and causing major eye damage.

    It depends on how well you clean them after use. :)

    I wear hard perscription contacts, i prefer em to soft, :) when i first got em i couldnt touch my eye, now after wearing them 5/6 years i can put em in around 1 second and i can do it in the street in the wind all sorts, i can also touch any part of my eye without flitching.

    I don't mean to be funny, but the retina is INSIDE your eye.... :eyebrow:

    Caught me, it was late and I was tired when I posted that. I meant to say cornea (I should know about those since I have a problem with mine).

    I've got some transparent ones, but they don't make my eyes transparent. Am I doing something wrong?

    Yes. If everything looks transparent when you have them on, you have them inside out. Turn them round and your eyes will be transparent. LEDs can be inserted through the ear to light the brain area. Works especially well on people with small brains :)

    Looks like that's £20 down the drain. I rubbed my eye while driving today and a lens fell out. Couldn't get it back in so I sat it on the dash and tried to get home before it dried. Went to pick it up and because it had dried, it slid down the dash and into the air vent. WHOOPEE :miffed: :wallbash:
