Contact Lenses online

[andy-xr]

Looking for a new supplier who might be cheaper than Vision Direct, anyone order online without a prescription at a reasonable price?

I have, can't remember who it was, but the lenses were different. I was convinced they were not right and submitted several sets to the manufacturer to test, and they confirmed they were genuine, but may have been made for a different country. ( Apparently they are slightly different in other countries? )
For the sake of a couple of quid, I prefer to go to my local optician.

I'd go with a high street jobby tbh. They are your only eyes and for the sake of a few quid it isn't worth the risk.

Asda opticians do a branded lense for £12/3 which is pretty cheap (I'd tell you what they are but I'm in bed) for example (and I don't have to drive into town. However you do have to go into asda)

I currently use daily disposable contact lenses from daysoft online.
£12 a month.
I went to an opticians in a well known supermarket and was told for the good of the health of my eyes to not use them anymore.

I get my eye test/check done in vision express and order my contacts online.

I have also bought my most recent pair of glasses online which required me to submit a picture of myself with a ruler across my forehead. Saved me a few £100 though and I maxed out the lens thinness (despite not mental prescription) so well worth it.

I save loads by buying contacts online, I'll go and find who I've used. Never had any problems, just go for eye tests when I think I need it or when it has been some time and it'd be sensible to.

I've bought from:

http://lensplanet.com/
http://www.lenstore.co.uk/

and

http://www.feelgoodcontacts.com/

Depending on who were the cheapest.

Perfect, thanks essesse! Feel Good Contact website is the cheapest, and I'm buying the same lenses as I was prescribed and fitted for, they look to be about £8-10 cheaper for 30 days than where I normally go

What risk???? The same lenses online are cheaper than in the store, your eyes wont fall out if the lens comes by post rather than being picked up in a shop!
