I wore glasses until the age of 36, when I got my contacts and I regret not "growing a pair" and getting them sooner. And I had no problem whatsoever putting them in. The first week I had them I limited myself to 4 hours a day, then six hours, and after that I was seldom conscious that they were even there. 8-12 hours is still my limit though...any more than that and I want to gouge my eyes out.
If you don't have any problem digging out eyelashes, hairs, or other random crap that gets in your eyes on occasion, you shouldn't have any problem putting in contact lenses.
