ChrisJaxon Posted April 4, 2023 Share Posted April 4, 2023 Is it just me, or do others find it increasingly difficult to extract contact lenses when the necessary fingers have been working hard on the strings? Wifey has to extract them for me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikegatward Posted April 4, 2023 Share Posted April 4, 2023 I’m lucky in that I have what the optician said was an excellent technique for getting lenses out by squeezing the eyelid. Just a shame I don’t have excellent technique on a bass guitar 😂 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jondeeman Posted April 4, 2023 Share Posted April 4, 2023 I have this problem - limited feeling in my fingertips and could easily take my own eye out... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being right handed and exclusively playing finger style for 35+ years has left me with callouses or dead finger sensation. Post gig I use a liberal amount of lens cleaning/storage fluid on my finger tips then slide the lens off to one side before pinching to remove it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
