I tried contact lenses for the first time today I couldn’t get them out but this technique makes much more sense wish I’d seen this before my appointment today. I’m booked in for a weeks time to have another go & will be using one of your techniques thank you 🙏
I'd never successfully used contacts before as I always got derailed by the trauma of getting them in and out. Been using them for a week after watching this with no problems! Many thanks!
This saved me lol. First week using contacts and I’ve been struggling to take them out. This was way easier than what my doctor showed me 😂. Thank you!!!
Oh my goodness!! I've been struggling to get the left lens out for the past hour and the second removal technique worked like a charm especially since my nails are done. Thank you so much for creating this video, really appreciate it 😄

OMG! I'm a new contact lens wearer, and I struggled putting on and taking off my lenses until I came across this video. I literally had a follow-up appt with my doctor today and spent an hour trying to get my lenses on before driving to my appt. I said I needed an easier way, and this video came up and SAVED the day. The doctor ended up changing my prescription and had me put on the new lens. I removed the old one and replaced the new one in mere minutes. She even said , "Youre done already".""I said yup I've been practicing 😂 Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! Your videos need to be the universal instructional video. God bless you
hello THANK YOU SO MUCH! it's my first day of using contacts in my whole life and was struggling to remove them for hours. watched many other vids too, but yours was the only helpful one! this should be the most viewed vid on contact lens removal 😩💯

I was messing with them for an hour, after watching this video I got them out in under 5 min. Thanks Antonio
I'm new to contacts, and had been struggling for 20 minutes trying to get one out. Tried your method and got it out first try. THANK YOU! As you might imagine, it was a huge relief to finally get it out, AND have a new method for removing them in the future.

the last time i tried getting my contacts out i tried for 3 hours and couldn’t get them out. i hope this vid helps me
For those still struggling, I couldn't take one lense out for 1 hour... Then I tried to look up a little, pull bottom eyelid down, place thumb and index finger on my eye like I would want to pinch it right from cornea, but I did not squeeze my fingers yet. I moved lense down to the white area with both fingers and just then immediately pinched it, so it was pretty easy to grab and there was no chance for lense to move back to the middle of the eye at the same time. And you really need dry fingers to work it best. Good luck.

I can't believe this was so easy and that I have been struggling for the last 30 minutes to take my contacts out! Thanks so much for showing us this method!
Thank you for an excellent instructional video. After 50 years of wearing rigid contacts was switched to soft contacts today. Huge difference in removal technique for soft contacts and your video not only showed effective methods but also how to safely remove my new lenses. Appreciate that you made the effort to shoot this tutorial.
I've been using contacts for approximately 12 years. I have been declining to use them because removing them was a stressful "end-of-day" drama. Great knowledge and execution. Thank you.
You are a lifesaver! My teenage son was not able to take off the lense the way it was shown to him in optometrist office. A LOT of screaming and despair at 11 pm. Red eyes, tears and thoughts of ER visit. After you video, bingo! Done in under a minute! Can't than you enough. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Hi Antonio, You’re literally my SAVIOR!!! I’ve been taking out my contacts for 4 years by pinching the center but suddenly I began accidentally scratching myself repeatedly, so I knew I needed to try something new, this was the first tutorial that actually worked for me. After two nights of trying, I’m getting better!! Thank you so much!!!
GODBLESS YOU!!!! I was getting so discouraged after a year! I just took mines out in 2min because if this video! Thank you 🙏🏾
This is so awesome! I’ve struggled for YEARS taking out my contacts! This is a game changer! Thank you!
The squeeze method saved me omfg I was panicking bc I have longer nails & couldn't do it the traditional way. Thank you!!!
You literally saved my life man, eye nerve was bleeding and was in the toilet for an hour crying LOL thanks for saving my right eye. 2nd method, awesome! Thx again
Omg thank you so much!!!! I struggled and panicked for an hour to take out my left lenses!! THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR THE TIPS!!
Thank you so much, really😭😭 first time using contacts and after spent more than 24hrs wearing them, watching other videos and couple of panic attacks i finally took them out thanks to you. I'm happy to say that i'm not afraid of using them anymore❤

Your video is fantastic. Great direct explanations and demonstrations, plus visuals with the model. Just got contacts today; panicked because I could not get them out tonight despite watching other popular vids. Thank you so much- you calmed and saved me. Lol. How do you manipulate your eyes so much without them turning red and irritated? My right eye especially, is red and feels wrecked after trying the methods in other videos. So grateful you demonstrated an alternate method of swiping. First time having nails longer than "piano length" for a wedding, and terrified of pinching or going near my eye with nails.

😂 thanks for the feedback! I must say working with eyeballs everyday gives me an advantage of being calm while handling contacts. Less handling = less redness!
First contact lenses user here been trying for an hour and this video is the closest I’ve gotten to taking them out!! 😩😩 but man it’s difficult not used to touching my eye!!
That technique worked. Struggled for 30 mins to get this left contact out. Took 20 seconds after watching how you did it. Thanks Antonio!
I would Never have been able to get them out without you, THANKS!

My friend recommended this video to me and it has been so useful! It took me an hour to take out my lenses this morning and your video reduced that to
I stopped using contact lenses eight years ago and I really thought it's time I let goish of my glasses and wear contacts again. I was struggling to take the out for about 30 minutes, until I found your video and I asked my boyfriend to read something for me so that I can be calm. Thank you so much for this video 👏🏽💜
Thank you! This really helped me when I was panicking. It took two tries per eye, compared with countless tries with other methods. Really appreciate
You are amazing! I was so scared and upset because I tried taking out my contact lenses for almost an hour without success. You explained the steps so clearly. I watched another video before yours, but it didn’t help. Thank you again!

This video saved me a trip to my optometrist to have them take my contacts out. I have only been wearing them for a month and often times I have to sleep in them or wear them for days at a time because I can't get them out. This video showed me a much easier way to take my contact lens out. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you! This, and "how to insert" video helped me way more than my optometrist did. Using methods she showed me, i struggled for an hour, with your methods i did it the second try.

My hands get really sweaty. Like I only sweat from my hands and feet. So the pinching method wasn't working for me because my hands kept getting moist and the lense just kept slipping around. The second method worked like a charm. As a first time lense wearer, this video is the bomb!! Thanks!
Thank you so much for this video ❤ I was struggling for two hours to take my lenses out and your method helped me to finally do that. Thank you so much, dear friend. God bless you ❤
Thank you so much !!! Just got contacts today for the first time and I was panicking. I watched your video on how to take them out and they came right out!! Thank you 💜
I tried three other methods and struggled for almost an hour to get mine out. I tried your method and got both out on the first try. Thank you!!!
LOVE the 2nd option. Popped right out first time I tried and have been using that method ever since. Thank you!
God bless you seriously!!! First day of contacts and 1 hour of trying to get my left eye contact out. Idk how or why but the clamp method worked!! Thank u so much and now I can go to bed!!!
first day with contacts here… this video helped sooooo much!! thanks :)
Wow. Wish they explained it this way at the office. Thank you soooooo much
Hey man, it is my second time taking them out. I've replayed the video 3 times until I finally took them out. Thank you so much.
I just watched this after 30 min struggling. Thank you so much! First day wearing them. Thank goodness for your video.
YOU ARE A LIFESAVER I JUST GOT CONTACTS YESTERDAY AND WAS HAVING A HARD TIME GETTING THEM OUT TODAY AND THIS HELPED SOSOSOSO MUCH
Thanks for the great tutorial! So much easier than calling my eye doctor and getting a non visual explanation

i was actually having panic attacks getting them out and with this video it took me a few seconds. Forever grateful. 😃
I can’t thank you enough for the simplest way to remove the contacts - first day the optometrist helped me putting them in 😅 hopefully I’ll be able to do it myself
you SAVED me... it had been years since I'd used contacts and like I'd forgotten how completely... spent 2 hours TRYING to remove them today. then found your video! first was the lid-pinch that worked then the next 2 times I managed the standard first way. thanks!!!!!
Thanks so much this is my first time having contacts but watching your video help me get them right out.Thank you Thank you!!!!
Great help. I couldn’t get one of them out. This video did the trick. What a relief. Maybe I’m too much of a clutch to wear contacts. I’ll keep trying
I just want to say thank you for this tutorial because I’m trying contact lenses for the first time after I had to have my sister take them out for me my first time. I get really nervous when people touch their eyes so I could never have enough courage to do contacts again but thanks to you I was able to! Thank you so much!!!
Probably the most useful of all the clip about how to get them out
This is easily the best video on the internet to demonstrate how to take out contact lenses. Thank you so much. I liked and subscribe

I am so happy I found your videos in inserting and removing contacts. My optromosis ( I just took my lenses out & can’t see well plez pardon typos ), was so frustrated with me asking him to remove them he wanted me to give up! Thank you many many time’s!!! Blessings.

Finally tried contacts today and managed to get them out with a lot of struggle 😭 I kept wondering why the blink method didn't work but now I see I was stretching my eyelids wrong. To those who are starting: I ruined like 3 pairs while learning how to put them in!! (I was using daily ones and didn't have a way to clean them if they dropped or dried out). Eventually I got em but by that time I got used to the feeling of my fingers kinda touching my eye. So if you're struggling-it's fine. You'll get it after a bit
Thank you SO MUCH. You just saved me a trip to the Dr. I seemed to have a more difficult time with one eye. This is definitely my new method.
Thank you so much! I was really struggling getting my contacts out and watched other videos, but your tips and techniques were the best, and I got them out quickly! Thank you!!!!
Thank u so much. I was having a panic attack trying to get me contacts out. I’ve only been eating them for three days and my mum has been helping me, but tonight she wasn’t here to help me and it got me stressed. Thank u so much. This was so easy and painless.

you are exactly like me. my mom also helps me and she at work one day and so i tried to get them out. after around ten- twenty minutes i got one out and i was really happy. eventually, around an hour or two later i couldn’t get the other one out and i was having a massive headache from the vision difference and was crying (i don’t really know what a panic attack is, so i won’t specify it as that) and eventually, after 3 hours of trying to get it out, my mom can home. i’m so grateful for her
Thank you thank you thank you! After watcghin10 other videos first, I still couldn't get a contact out. The clamp method was perfect! Came right out. THANK YOU!
Thank you…..3rd video and almost an hour of effort and I got them out! Thank you so much!

Much better than many videos/demos I've seen. Well done and thank you!
Thank you so much for this! I started crying when I couldn't take it out, but after watching your video, I did it first try!

Out of all the videos I watched yours was the only one that helped me
Wore contacts 15-20 years ago. Got lasic and now coming back. These lenses are a lot harder to remove than the old ones. Thanks for the assist!
You saved my life .... Removing contacts is so scary. Thank you so so much
Wow your teaching is so good, tried it once and it went it
Thank you! This has been the most helpful video. Explained so well, I managed to do them both in less than 2 mins.
I got lenses for the first time today and this video was a lifesaver!!
I was struggling for 15 minutes I turned on this video and popped them out in a second thank you so much! Now I can take a nap 😅 *day one with these for me btw 😂
Thank you so much for this tutorial. It was incredible easy after i watched it. ❤
This video saved me tonight!! Thanks!! First time wearing contacts and Geesh!! 😅
The second option helped me a lot! I wasn't able to take them out until now! Thank U
I couldn’t get my contacts out for an hour. My eyes were bright red and tears everywhere. I googled and found this video.. I cannot express my gratitude to you for taking the time out to make this video. I had to wait 3 days to put my contacts back in after my initial experience. Without this video I wouldn’t have been able to remove them. Day 4 of wearing contacts and I can put them and and take them out in seconds. Thank you so very much!!!!
