Online Shopping: Choosing the Correct Contact LensesWritten by Carter McIntosh
The online shopping experience is – in many ways – different from making same purchases from a brick and mortar establishment. While convenience of browsing, ordering and making shipping arrangements is hard to beat, health related products such as these must be designed specifically for consumer who’s doing ordering. With this in mind, there are a number of things to consider when making decision to buy this type of product via internet.Your first step, if course, is to ensure that your prescription is up-to-date. This means that you should have had an eye exam within last one to two years. In most cases, your contact lenses will be effective, as long as prescription renewal date is still intact and hasn’t expired. Typically, these are valid for one to two years after your last exam, although some states allow doctor to determine expiration date. It’s highly recommended that you only purchase contact lenses with a valid prescription that was dispensed by your doctor. Some online merchants allow items such as these to be purchased without a confirmed prescription, which can lead to vision problems. Those who wear contact lenses that haven’t been made specifically according to their vision needs run risk of damaging eye. Choosing a reliable establishment for purchase of online contact lenses is easier if you remember that they should always ask for your eye care physician’s contact information and a copy of your prescription. There are some companies who won’t ask for such things – or will ask, but will never confirm prescription. If you decide to purchase your contact lenses online, always make a notation to effect that you will be notifying your doctor, who should expect to receive a confirmation call. Follow-up by making a copy of your ordering information and forwarding it to your doctor’s office. If company that’s dispensing contact lenses knows that doctor has been alerted, they may be more likely to follow laws that are specific to that type of sale.
