It's been almost 2 years, but I know that my eyes are stable (as they have been for a long while) and I would really rather not pay for a new exam. But all the online contacts places ask for my doctor's info. Is there anyway to get around this?I know my contacts presecription, do I have to get an exam to reorder?
I tried to do this also..I wanted to get new contacts knowing my prescription but they kept asking for the slip from my opthamologist. I had to go back to the doc's office and had my eyes tested, they fitted me with contacts and then gave me the slip. That's the only way I could've gotten my contacts. But hey, its not too bad-having your eyes checked regularly is always healthy.
After two years you will need a new eye test. You may not think your eyes have changed, but they probably have. You will therefore need a new prescription.
not if its been two years. most opticians will insist on a re-test and also an eye check which really is very important with contacts. it will check the health of your eye - not just the sight range. its a bit of a hassle but worth it - you dont want to risk your eyes. where do u live? UK? some opticians will do a monthly set of contacts and if you sign up for a year u get a free eye check. but do have to pay for test. look out for deals - sometimes independent opticians have lower price deals on.
good luck.

you probably should get a new exam because after a while you don't realize that your eyes have changed however i do not think that you need to get a new exam in order to get more contacts
