Thank you :)Can someone give me the best tips and advice in contact wearing for long healthy eye life?Also Pinching Techni?
The most important thing to do is to follow the directions of your optometrist or ophthalmologist. When I got contacts, they stressed how important it was that I keep them clean - wash your hands before putting in your contacts. You can develop eye infections if you do not practice sanitary precautions when handling your contacts. It is also best not to sleep in your contacts, even if they are designed for extended wear. Your eyes need oxygen, and having contacts in all the time can harm them in the long run.





As far as the pinching technique, it's probably fine. I tend to use my finger to drag the lens off of my eye slowly, which doesn't hurt and doesn't tear the contact.
