Control of your eye lids

                                         

* THE KEY TO SIMPLE APPLICATION IS CONTROL OF YOUR EYELIDS *

 

  1.  Always make sure you grab the upper eyelid under the lashes and hold the lid open against the bone: (The orbital rim).  Make sure you have full control and cannot close your eye.

 2.   DO NOT let your fingers slip and hold your eye BROW.  The eye can easily close in this position.  (This is NOT what you want).

Eyes can close if you let your finger slip up to eyebrow

With another finger,  (from the same hand or the other hand), hold the eyelid margin of the lower eyelid and pull down so your eyeball is exposed.  Again, DO NOT let your fingers slip or there will not be enough space to apply the lens.
