I am with Boots vision plan have been for years and just keep paying up £38 a month for this. About to have to sign up again for another year.

Got to be a better way or me to see properly so I am looking for advice from anyone who has been in this situation. Do I:

1) Stay with Boots they have been OK cost £38 a month
2) find alternate supplier for lenses and after care if so who?
3) Is it time to Laser my eyes, and stop paying £38 a month. If so who and how much?
4) other?

Thanks

(if it's relevant my eyes are L -2.25 and R -3.00) further edit: I use Daily Disposables

I think you is bonkers spending that amount.

Get eye test done only at opticians, then order online. I ordered 12 months worth of lenses last week... £108 the lot.

Different lenses vary though. Mine are £25 and they're not the sort you can get off the shelf as such.

Find out exactly what lenses boots supply you with... then get them online.

Bear in mind you'll then have to pay for your eye tests and check-ups (which sometimes come all-in for the monthly fee), but it does work out cheaper overall.

Or get them lasered and pay it off monthly. I'm sure you can read stories good and bad on PH and the wider web but I can recommend Ultralase.

I just popped in Teco last week, had sight test, contact lens test and paid for 3 months worth of lens, and s pair of coloured lenses, monthly day and night disposables. £43 all in
