Thread: How does one..

before laser eye surgery i used to put contacts every day.


on your left eye, open eyelids open with left hand.
use right hand to hold bottle between thumb and forefinger.
tilt head back, hold bottle about 2cm away from eye, squeeze drops in.

for the right eye, hold eyelids with right hand.

Eye don't know...
Make sure you take pics, that'll be a sight for sore eyes.....
Okay, I'm done....

Thanks guys; I tried your method Eevo, half a bottle down the cheek and temple later, I got two drops in the eye. Superquag speaks from experience by the sound of his observation.

It takes a while to get used to it.
I found it much easier lying down, because when you look up you start to lose your balance.
It takes a while but you do get used to it.
An odd sensation.

Down a couple of decent bundys first Ian, then your reactions aren't as fast and you can get it in before you blink. You still coming this way?

I've done it a few times by just looking in the mirror and holding each eye open as required.
I'm now doing the same thing for the Cook who is what the eye specialist call a "blinker"......that ain't what I call her and it makes it hard when the eye lid keeps fluttering.
