[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think it's really important to do it with a lot of extra time.  The frustration builds and then it's just harder.  DD has been wearing them since October and is still not a pro, and we ask her to put them in an hour before we need to leave.

Ironically, I never had a hard time getting them in, but would struggle when I first started to get them out.  She has the opposite problem. [/quote]

This.  My DS started wearing them at 13, also because of baseball (he’s a catcher). Over and over when there is no time pressure. He would get frustrated so quickly when he didn’t give himself enough time.  For him, he wasn’t pulling the lower eyelid down far enough to expose the curve of the eyeball so when he thought he was putting the lens in, it wasn’t setting onto the curve of the eyeball. When he let go of the bottom lid, the lens would pop out. I stood beside several times so I could see where he was going wrong and would prompt him to pull the bottom eyelid down more. [/quote]
