OptiWand Pincher 2 Pack Portable Soft Contact Lens Removal & Insertion Tool Silicone Rubber Soft Lens Applicator & Remover Device with Pincher End & Finger Grips Safe & Easy on Eyes Travel Size 2.3"

I finally picked up the nerve to reinsert my contact lenses tonight. I'd had them out since 2 days prior to ordering this product. I loathed putting my contacts in as I usually end up spending the better part of 1 to 2 hours attempting to get them in. I'm not new to contact wear, I've had them for 13 years. I kept seeing the suggestion to have dry fingers. That did absolutely nothing for me and I have even rubbed my fingertip raw trying to get it dry enough for lens insertion. I finally saw an article that said dry eye can cause this to happen. Eye drops safe for use during contact wear helped. It now only took me about a half hour of fighting. I tried using the big side of this tool with no luck. I must have small eyes because when I used the notched end, as the manufacturer recommends if you have small eyes or lenses, my lens went in on the 2nd try! My 2nd lens went in on the 1st try! Yayyyyyyyyyyyyy! No more burning eyes and frustration. I put 2 eye drops in my eye then used this tool to pick up and insert my lens. Works like a charm. No irritation or red eyes. Finally, a real answer to the dilemma I had experienced for years. I can quit feeling like it was me doing something wrong. This little tool and some drops will encourage me to clean my lenses more often as I had been leaving them in for extended time to avoid the reinsertion nightmare. Many many kudos to this company for making this product that took away the torture of red, burning eyes and severe stress and frustration.

Did not work as easy as I thought they would it took several tries and at times I just gave up. Even though they are inexpensive, not worth it

Works

To be honest idk if I’m using this right but it’s just not working for me, I wear contacts and I wear acrylic nails or dip powder so using my actual hands/nails make it impossible to get them out that’s why I purchased this and for some strange reason it’s still difficult to get the things out of my eyes using this tool they suction my eye but the contact won’t budge so it takes me longer I just go back to using my nails even after YouTube videos I still can’t get them out I really wanted this to work for me.

It takes some getting used to. I has success right away using this to take my contacts out, but now I have trouble sometimes. I'm fairly certain its because my eyes are dry and even adding drops its not enough and the lenses are sticking to my eye. Its definitely an improvement over not using it and I definitely recommend it.

New to wearing contacts AND had fake nails put on for a trip. Bought product so didn't poke my eye out and now use even without fake nails. Trick is to definitely follow directions and look through hole to see light. This dunce finally figured out you have to close opposite eye in order to do so. I have also found once cup is touching eye, squeeze rubber edges gently, then move towards outer or inner eye and follow eye with it. That way the contact lens has a bit of barrier to work off of. Don't give up. It works.

Good idea. Poor construction. Difficult to use.

I HAD CONTACTS THAT WERE VERY DIFFICULT TO GET OUT. I BOUGHT THIS DEVICE AND IT WAS EVEN MORE DIFFICULT. SO, I JUST WENT IN AND GRABBED THE LENSES WITH MY FINGER AND THUMB. SO VERY EASY!!! EARLIER, I WAS BEING TOO DELICATE AND COULDN'Y GRAB THE LENSE. TRYING TO STICK THIS THING IN MY EYE, SQUEEZE, TURN ETC. ETC. WAS TOO MUCH. I DON'T UNDERSTAND THESE POSITIVE REVIEWS EXCEPT FOR THOSE WITH LONG FINGERNAILS. I APPLIED FOR REFUND BUT SAW NOT AMAZON PRIME. I WILL HAVE TO EAT THE RIDICULOUS PRICE OF $17.00 FOR USELESS RUBBER STICKS. MY BAD FOR ORDERING NOT PRIME ELIGIBLE. THEY DO A GOOD JOB WITH THE SALES PITCH BUT DELIVER A BAD PRODUCT. $17.00 !!!!!!!

Work better than my hands.

I was looking for something to remove the soft contact without any problem but did succeed once will try again in future
