buying contact lenses online
i know a few of you do this so how does it work? are you able to just order the correct power and curve and they send them to you or do you have to send them a copy of your prescription and still have regular checkups and send them the results?
also what are some good sites to get them from?

I've just started using Visiondirect.co.uk. Didn't need my prescription, just ordered same lenses I've been getting from Costco, price is about the same as Costco but you get 20% cashback through Quidco for Vision Direct.
I have a astigmatism and have started using the Ciba Vision - Focus Dailies Toric and find them brilliant for comfort and vision.

I must have been using the wrong sites then as I've been asked for a valid prescription. I got them from my normal opticians in the end as they didn't need to retest my eyes and therefore worked out cheaper with no eye test.

They never asked me for a prescription from this site, perhaps the law has now changed.

interesting about the no prescription thing, some do and some don't then.
how do people get on with the monthly disposables after using dailies is there any difference?

on the subject of contacts - what is the strongest vision strength that contacts go up to?
One optician told me -20 but then another recently told me -10??

I use these boys and they are as cheap as chips. Fast turnaround & no prescription needed. Probably only local market though, sorry
