I had quite a fight with my optometrist, trying to get my prescription. He told me that I shouldn't be buying them online, and that if problems occur, that I couldnt' return them. I have had the same type of contacts for nearly 12 years, and have never had problems. I rarely use them (only for swimming and the odd day that I feel like it) but they are nice to have. He then tried to inform me that he could give me a years supply for the same price as online. I refused, since I only needed a couple of months, and then he finally gave them to me. It was a huge deal, since they charge almost double per box! Keep at it, and they should give it to you.
Another tip, is to call the receptionist, and if you ask, they will often fax it to you, if you need it.
