I used to have contacts. Once a year I would go to the optometrist to get my eyes checked. Then I would get the prescription from the doctor..order 1 box of contacts for each eye so I had something to start with.
Then I would go home to 1800contacts.com and order them online. It's a very easy ordering process. You put in your contact info, prescription, and doctors information. They verify the data with your optometrist to make sure you're not making it up and then voila, you get the shipment of however many you ordered delivered to your house. It's as cheap as ordering from the optometrist and no hassles of going there. If your prescription is older than a year, they require you get a new one for safety reasons.
I did that for years until I got LASIK because my prescription was really bad (-12) in both eyes and I got sick of contacts..my husband let me get LASIK for my CHristmas present. It was a while ago and cost 4000 total. I have a lifetime guarantee should my eyes change...
But yeah, regarding contacts, 1800contacts is THE way to go!
