Rebecca's description

I first stocked this product in 2015. To me, it looked and felt the thing that held the jewel-shaped hard candy when I was a kid. But there's a lot of people out there that have difficulty with lens insertion and need creative solutions.

In these past few years I've had more than enough feedback from actual users of the ring applicator to indicate it's an extremely useful tool for many people, though - like everything - not everyone. 

I heard from a customer in 2018 with 15mm lenses who had difficulty with the lens not coming off the applicator. I contacted the manufacturer and they recommended trying the one with the smaller bowl - for mini sclerals and hybrids - so we are now stocking that one as well, and to be on the safe side I'm going to suggest that those with 15mm lenses try that one first. Here is a link for smaller one: EZI Lens Applicator Ring (for mini sclerals & hybrids)

Great product but didn’t work for me

After finally getting the hang of inserting my new scleral lenses using a lighted stand, I thought I would try another option that might be easier for travel. I saw a youtube video that made the insertion look pretty easy with the applicator ring. The applicator ring was very easy to slide onto an index finger and it held my lens well. However, I wasn’t able to successfully open my eyelids wide enough without having the full use of both hands to do so. This should work well for others who don’t struggle to open their eyelids with fewer fingers than I do. Unfortunately, I’m sticking with the lighted stand for now and will maybe try this option again in the future.

Trial and Error

I ordered this ring primarily because I thought I could use it and alleviate the thumb and hand pain I have with inserting the sclerals with the use of the plunger. This worked for me a few times, but I really cannot get the hang of it. Because of my nerve condition in my hands, I cannot position my hand in the proper position in order to use this effectively. I ordered one, thinking I would get the hang of it and have it on hand if needed, and then I ordered a second one in order to get a bundle discount ....I doubt I can use either one. It does have a good, intended purpose if you are willing to try.

Easy to use.

I plan to order more. I recently was not at home and needed to remove my lens and re-insert. My hands were shaky and fell. I went into panic mode. I did find lens, I searched internet for ways to prevent that. I found this, I bought one and planning to buy more to be able to keep with me. Sometimes I still just use my finger but the security of this when I am out, really helps. Please start selling these in multiple packs with a discount i.e. 3 for $25 maybe.
