Considerations to make when purchasing contact lenses online
While such purchases are often a convenient and economical way to get lenses, Internet, phone, or mail orders require consumers to exercise some caution. The following questions and answers should help you take simple precautions to make your Internet, phone or mail purchase safe and effective for you.
What do I need to consider when buying contact lenses on the Internet, by phone or by mail?
?Is my contact lens prescription current? You should always have a current, correct prescription when you order contact lenses.
?If you have not had a check-up in the last one to two years, you may have problems with your eyes that you are not aware of, or your contact lenses may not correct your vision well.
?The expiration date for your prescription is currently set by your state. Some require a one-year renewal, some a two-year [url=http://www.davidhabchy.com]barbour sale[/url] renewal, [url=http://soujie.net/bbs/home.php?mod=space&uid=170453][/url] while other states leave it to your doctor to decide.
?Never order lenses with a prescription that has expired. [url=http://www.iwuta.com/Discuz/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=495818&fromuid=15583]barbour online shop Pour Ségolène Royal, laffaire Battisti ne concerne plus la[/url]
What does a valid contact lens prescription include?
?This depends on the state where your doctor practices. State laws often define a prescription?s requirements. In states without a legal definition, the prescribing doctor includes some minimum elements.
?The minimum elements usually include your name and the doctor?s name along with the contact lens brand name [url=http://www.fibmilano.it]woolrich[/url] and material. Also, lens measurements such as power, diameter and base curve are included.
?More detailed prescriptions will include directions for safe use such as wearing schedule, whether lenses are for daily or extended wear, the number of refills, whether lens material substitutions are allowed and an expiration date.
?Some Internet sites ask for information about your doctor so that they may check the prescription with your doctor. State laws vary greatly concerning the kind of verification that is required. Internet sites should comply with applicable State requirements concerning verification of prescriptions for contact lenses.
Will I get in legal trouble if I buy my contact lenses on the Internet, by phone or by mail [url=http://www.diecastlinks.co.uk]hollister uk[/url] if I don?t have a copy of my prescription?
?You won?t break any laws, but the company is selling you a prescription device as if it were an over-the-counter device. In legal terms, this misbrands the [url=http://www.tagverts.com/barbour.php]barbour deutschland[/url] device. Often, the company will say that they will check back with [url=http://www.gotprintsigns.com/abercrombiepascher/‎]abercrombie soldes[/url] your doctor to confirm the prescription and expiration date; however, that may not always happen.
?Some Internet sites will allow you to fill out a chart with the ordering information about your contact lenses and ask you to fill in your doctor?s name and phone number. The site may or may not ask for an actual copy of your prescription, but they should [url=http://www.thehygienerevolution.com/hollister.php]hollister[/url] comply with applicable State law concerning contact lens prescription verification.
?Since individual states have different licensing requirements for optical dispensers, enforcement of prescription device sales has usually been left to State authorities.
What harm can be done if I don?t have regular check-ups with my doctor or I order lenses without a valid prescription?
?At your check-up, your eye doctor will re-evaluate the fit of your contact lenses and observe any changes in your cornea caused by your lenses. You will benefit by having a correct, current prescription and you may avoid serious problems, especially if you wear your lenses on an extended or overnight schedule.
?Though infections of the cornea are rare, severe cases can cause loss of vision and even blindness. During regularly scheduled visits, your eye doctor looks for irregularities that, if left untreated, may lead to severe problems. These irregularities often have no symptoms and you may be totally unaware of them.
?Contact lens wear causes many changes to cells and tissues of the eye, and sometimes wearing contact lenses can damage the cornea (the clear window of the eye). [url=http://www.rtnagel.com/airjordan.php]jordan pas cher[/url] Even if you are currently experiencing no problems, the lenses may be causing damage to your eyes. Regular check-ups will reduce the likelihood of damage going undetected.
?Contact lenses that are not properly fitted by an eye doctor might not work well, or even worse, may harm your eyes.
?Ask your eye doctor how often to have a check-up.
Will regular check-ups help prevent me from having problems with my contact lenses?

Regular check-ups will help [url=http://www.mxitcms.com/abercrombie/]abercrombie milano[/url] reduce your chances of having a problem. At your check-up, your doctor may find something that requires refitting with a new lens or requires modifying your wearing schedule.
