If you p out at your first contact fitting, will you always p out when putting in contacts?

What you experienced is vaso-vagal syncope. It has to do with touching your eye. You may have less of an issue if you touch your own eye. I have had a patient who was a successful contact lens wearer that just about ped out on me when I checked his pressure. You need to let your eye doctor know about your past experiences when you make the appointment. We generally like to put your contact in for you the first time because we can do it quicker than we can teach you how to do it. I am sure your doctor does not want to have another experience like you have had in the past.
