How do you get the contact lens to stop sticking to your finger and go in your eye easier?
Your contact lens will stick to the "least wet" thing it is in contact with. Try putting a couple of drops of solution on your finger so that the lens can easily move off your finger onto your eyeball. The easiest way that I find to put a lens in is to place it on the eyeball and then slowly move your eye (ie look away). Because of the shape of the lens, it moves with the eyeball and "off" your finger.
