A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Avoid politics
- NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
- Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
- Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct-----

My contacts case has a white cap for the left lens and a green cap for the right lens.
But I kinda take it you mean like when you peel open the packaging on brand new lenses..? Yeah I hear where you're coming from there.
Yeah. Dailies. I have to zoom in on my camera to find the right one.
Here's a thought for ya, perhaps you could see about ordering two boxes of contacts, one box strictly for your left eye prescription, and the other box strictly for your right eye...
Dunno much about ordering contacts though, I've only ever had a few pairs of contacts given to me right there at the eye doctor and he wrote L and R on them for me.
I'm not sure if they allow ordering them in that way or if they absolutely have to pair them up in shipping according to your prescription.
Still seems if you could get them ordered in separate boxes it would make things a lot easier for ya.
A permanent ink marker making a big slash across the container for one of your eye's contacts ahead of time makes things easier to find. Just look for the big line across the container and you know that it's your left or right eye, and the other isn't. The important thing is to always do the same eye between orders, so you don't get used to the line always being the left and all of a sudden it changes to right from one order to another.
Or dab of nail polish on the lid was my first thought.
