After years of wearing glasses, I decided to join the glasses-less master race. Except I can't.
My eyes refuse to let me anywhere near them. I literally struggled for hours trying to put one in my right eye (my good one) and just couldn't do it. Whenever I got close, my eyelids would shut regardless of the fingers holding them open. And when I actually do manage to get the contact to touch my eye, I blink and force it out.
I'm really frustrated because glasses just don't look right on me. Contacts are something I really want, but I just can't get over this initial hurdle. And it kills me because mentally, I'm okay with putting something in my eye; my body just won't let me do it.
Any tips, tricks or words of wisdom for me?
