Tip for contact carriers - Wet fingers

I was always annoyed when putting on my contact lenses. No matter how well I have washed my hands before, no matter what I dried or wiped them, it happened to me again and again that a tiny lint was on the lens and burned terribly at the onset (take out, clean, back in and and and ...).

How do I make sure that not even a mililililililies lint on my fingers? I thought again and again. Now I have it, hehe. Just use the lenses with wet fingers! So wash your hands as usual and then just use directly, without drying. This prevents the towel from leaving tiny threads on your fingers.

Personally, I sometimes feel that if all my fingers are wet I have "no hold" on the eye. In that case, I only wet the fingertips of the fingers that really come into contact with the lenses.


Good luck trying out!

PS: For those who now say that water is bad for the eyes: when showering / swimming you usually get water in the eyes. In addition, you only briefly touched the lens, so maximum is a small drop of water to the eye.

Of course you should not do that in countries where the water is bad, such as: Eg Thailand, Philippines ...
