No, you do not need to send us your prescription. You can provide us with your doctor's information, and we can verify it by phone or fax. There is no extra charge for this service. Your doctor is required to release the prescription to us, however, if they do not cooperate, we are allowed to assume that your prescription is correct and valid if your doctor does not respond to our request within 8 business hours. If you send us your prescription by email or fax, we will have no need to contact your doctor and your order will get processed a bit faster.

You usually don't have to. The prescription numbers are on your contact lens boxes or on the little containers that the trial lenses came in. If for whatever reason you do not have the boxes or trial lenses, you can get help reading your rx by clicking here. If you still can't figure it out, just do not select any numbers for your prescription when ordering. we will attempt to read your prescription or contact your doctor to obtain the information.

Do so only with consent from your eye care professional. See your doctor for a new contact lens fitting first. Ask your doctor for a trial fitting in 2 or 3 different types of lenses if you wish. You can even ask your doctor to write more than one brand of lens on your prescription. Once your doctor establishes that you are comfortable with the lenses, you can pick and choose which one you feel like ordering and wearing.

Usually 1 or 2 years from the date it was written, depending on the state that you are in. Sometimes it is up to your doctor's discretion. If you are unsure if your prescription is still valid, you can always try placing your order and providing us with your doctor information. If your doctor does not contact us to cancel your order within 8 business hours of the prescription verification request, your order will ship. There are no restocking or cancellation fees if your order gets canceled, so you have nothing to lose.

Contact lenses require brand specific prescriptions. You can only order the exact brand of lens that you were prescribed for through your eye care professional. Different brands of lenses all fit and feel differently. Even if the prescription numbers match up, the lens may not suit your eye.

Just place the order based off the prescription parameters on your previous box of contact lenses or trial pair, and provide us with the phone or fax number to your doctor's office. If your doctor does not respond within 8 business hours of our prescription verification request, the order will ship. Please make sure that the prescription numbers that you entered during the order are correct, as your doctor will not always call us back to make corrections.

We would be more then happy to accommodate you when you are in need. However, you would have more luck explaining your situation to your optometrist and asking for his or her consent to order one last batch of contacts to hold you over until you can get your prescription renewed. If your doctor extends your prescription expiration date because of your situation, place your order with us and it will ship upon verification.

The contact lenses that we sell are sourced from the same suppliers and manufacturers that your eye care provider orders from, therefore they must be the exact same lenses. There are no generic lenses available on the market, and since contact lenses require brand specific prescriptions, we couldn't sell you a substitute even if we wanted too. We guarantee to ship your contact lenses exactly as ordered, and will fix any shipping errors at our expense.

The contact lenses that we sell are new and expire well into the future; usually 3-6 years away from the date that the order is placed. Because of our inventory system and order volume, our inventory is replenished with new lenses more often than most other online companies, which means that the lenses on our shelves have usually just arrived in from the manufacturer.

It's likely that you are looking at a brand of lens that you have not been prescribed for. The numbers on your prescription will only match up with the brand of lens that you have previously worn, or have been prescribed for by your eye care professional. Please order the correct brand of lenses. If you're unsure about which brand of lens you require, call us or speak to your doctor.

Please note that manufacturer backorders will affect all retailers, and as such, the wait time would have been the same no matter where you would have ordered the lenses from.
