    Well, my left eye's contact started to irritate a bit today, and I thought maybe I wore it the wrong way, so I took it out, flipped it around, and put it back on. Then I took it off again, and flipped it back, and then put it back on, and I couldn't tell the difference... I see the same both ways, and it stopped irritating both ways. And I don't know what to do... any advices?

    Maybe you got something trapped under it when you put it on the first time?

    Just see how it goes tomorrow, and the day after etc etc, possibly just a one off?

    You can't tell from the curvature which way is which?

    So you're complaining because your contact works and doesn't irritate you? Wow, life in the AmazingGracePlayer household must be good if you're complaining about this.

    Put the lens on the tip of the index finger of the hand you write with. Be sure the lens is right-side-out (the edges should turn up, not out).

    Take it out and place it on your finger. Flip the sucker and place it on your finger again. The one that looks more... for lack of a better term, right, is the way it should be.

    Hahaha, it's the possibility that I could've put on the lens the wrong way that's bothering me, I have OCD like you can't image. :smug:
