You will also probably be a bit clumsy, because let's face it, it's not natural to put something in your eye. Still, if you keep at it, you'll soon get the hang of it. Just work closely with your eye doctor and he or she will help you along the way, and don't forget that your friends on Lens 101 are here to help you too.
