This video describes how to insert SynergEyes VS Scleral contacts. There are many ways to insert scleral contacts. We recommend you pick the method that works best for you. Always wash hands with mild soap and dry well with a lint-free towel before handling lenses.
Place lens on an insertion tool or stabilize on fingers placed in the tripod method (see here: https://synergeyes.com/specialty-contact-lenses/handling-care/). Then, fill bowl of lens to the top with non-preserved sterile saline.
1.) Lean forward and look down. Face should be parallel to the floor. Sometimes it’s helpful to place a mirror flat on the counter as you insert the lens.
2.) With the finger of one hand, hold upper lid by placing one finger on the base of the lashes and pin the lid to the brow bone.
3.) Using the opposite hand, with palm facing up, place the inserter between thumb and index finger. Pull the lower lid down with middle finger, holding the eye wide open.
4.) Gently place lens on eye by sliding lens inside lower lid and applying directly to eye. Remove inserter from lens by squeezing the inserter.
