Simple and effective for removing hard and gas permeable contact lenses. Moisten the cup of the DMV Traditional Remover and gently touch it squarely on the contact lens. The contact lens will adhere to the soft suction cup and will come off the eye easily. After the lens is removed from the eye, gently slide it from the suction cup. Comes with tough clear plastic storage tube.

Fantastic, work brilliantly, but ONLY for 'hard' Rigid-Gas-Permeable contacts, not soft lenses.
These have changed my contact lens-wearing experience. RGP lenses are enormously superior to soft lenses, but man are they a hassle to remove - and a risk, because the normal method of pinching your eyelids to 'pop' them out can easily cause the lens to go flying and get lost or damaged. Taking them out was just so much hassle, and if I didn't get them out right away and my eyes started to water it was hopeless. So, in defiance of everything I knew and everything my eye doctor told me, I wore my lenses for sometimes weeks at a time.With these, taking my lenses out is an absolute breeze, and takes literally a few seconds for each lens (not including cleaning time). It's a little bit weird taking this little rubber thing and sticking it in my eye - and I say that as someone who has worn contacts for three decades - but you just power through it, and it makes the process so easy that it is completely worth it.For best results, wet the suction end so it gets a better grip - I use water, but lens solution might be preferable for some. If you have trouble at all, make sure you're planting the cup firmly on the lens. Obviously you have to do this by feel and 'vibe' since you can't focus on something that close to you in the mirror, but it's not as tricky as it sounds. Sometimes it takes two tries to grab the lens, but that's pretty rare.Honestly, these things are so close to effortless than everyone who is leaving reviews saying they don't work I can honestly say is doing something wrong or trying to get out soft lenses with them. You *cannot* remove soft lenses with these, but you can pluck those out of your eye pretty easily with just your fingers.10/10 would buy again. I don't know when I'll need to, because these are pretty sturdy. I've been using the same one for a month now and it's as good as the first time I used it.

The poor reviews.
The poor reviews...come on people...this is for HARD contacts, not soft. Also, you're not going to use this for daily use, I've had hard contacts for 20 years and they pop out easily. I don't care if this thing is $20, it's worth it! In my years of contact use early on my hard contacts would occasionally slip out of place. Ouch and ewww. Ouch because it hurts like a son of a gun as is suctioned firm to a part of your eye that it shouldn't be. Ewww because I feel like my contact is going to roll back into the back of my eye. I had purchased one of these last year and came back to purchase another one today as I unfortunately had to use it today. My toddler hit me in the eye by accident tonight, knocking my hard contact off and slid off the front of my eye and up. So I tried not to panic and grabbed my plunger out, after a few minutes I was able to work the lense down into the inner corner of my eye. There I was able to use the plunger to get it out. Yes this thing suctions greatly, make sure it's clean/dry and towards the center of the lense. If I didn't have this on hand I'd be forced to attempt to use my nails to get enough suction under the lense to get it off. I'd be luckily to not scratch my eye and damage it in the process.Long story short, what are your eyes worth to you? This product is well worth it to have and I'm getting another one for my purse "just incase". If you have hard contacts and ever dropped one in the sink/surface and couldn't pry it off without sliding it around - just imagine sliding it around o your eye. Not fun. This item is a must for any contact user! And no I didn't get paid for this review...if it helps someone survive the terror of a misplaced hard contact on their eye, I've done my good deed for the day!

Works Great!
I have wearing hard contacts for over 45 years! I switch to RGP's about 15 years ago. On occasion I would have an oops moment during the removal of my contact and it would slide either above making it very difficult to remove. If you have worn contacts you know what I mean. I had long forgotten about contact removers even though I remember my brother using one in the 60's. At any rate I just received my DMV Ultra Remover the other day and OMG! I just removed my right contact with the remover and it worked sooooooooooooooooooooo welllllllllllllllllllllllll!I wish I had purchase this years ago! Great Product...wish I had had them 40 years ago!

Works well unless your eyes are dry or you have tight fitting contacts
Honestly, the product is great and does what it's intended to do. I like the color and that each of them come in their own individual case. Now I can keep one in my office, my car, my bathroom, etc. instead of having to carry one around in my pocket all the time.I do have one issue with it and this probably only applies to me. Another plunger I have is hollow with a hole in the middle of the suction cup. Prior to removing the contact, you squeeze the handle part and then place the plunger on the contact and gently release pressure which will then provide suction to the cup. For some reason that allows me to remove the contact without any discomfort. If there is any discomfort, I can just squeeze it to relieve the suction and try again. The DMV Ultra Hard Contact Lens Remover does not have that hole which means that once it suctions to the lens, it isn't letting go. If your eyes are dry at all when removing the contact lens, it will feel like you are pulling the skin off of your cornea.

Los chupones que estuve buscando!!!
Mi hija utiliza lentes nocturnos que le moldean la cornea, el ojo amanece un poco seco y justo había perdido su chupon, habíamos estado buscando y comprando muchos y ninguno le servía, hasta que por fin encontramos el perfecto. Los lentes se retiran muy fácilmente, a nosotros nos funcionó porque ademas no trae hoyo en medio oara hacer aire. Los recomiendo, es la mejor marca.

Works Very Well
The tool is very soft, and works every time, first time. I would purchase again. I must admit, the container would be much better if it had a screw top. I have purchased another brand more for the screw top container, however the tool sucked.

Bomba para lentes
Son caras en general para lo que son, sin embargo el color esta bellisimo, cada una en su estuche individual y como tip, si pones una gota de lubricante de ojos en la punta el lente sale muy suavemente y no se maltrata. Son monos y funcionales.

Muy útiles para lentes esclerales
Son muy útiles parientes esclerales, para poner y quitar. No hay manera de hacerlo sin estos. En México no los encuentro y necesitaba repuestos.

Works great! Touched the contact gently and it popped right out
Only tried it once but worked like a charm. Just wished that it came in a case because it is very small and easily lost. I bought this because I was having a really hard time one night getting a contact out to the point where I was starting to panic, and now will never have to worry about it again.
