Glasses.
I hate the idea of putting anything in my eyes
My first wife would get this thing about every 3 years or so where a contact would migrate around to the back of her eye. This would then be followed by about an hour of her trying to get it back front-and-center. Just the thought of it is enough to horrify me.
Like it goes under the eyelid? That is quite terrifying to look at, but it can’t go all the way behind the eye because of the way the eye is structured. It stops like at the top of the eye.
I've never really been able to use eye drops and when I've tried my eyes would reflexively close. I don't get how people can handle putting contacts in regularly
Use eye drops on the outside opening of your eye ducts. Turn your head to let gravity pull the drops in an blink 2-4 times. Don't try to use eye drops from the front and above.
