Questions people ask

Do I need a separate exam for contact lenses?

Yes. A contact lens fitting is billed on top of a comprehensive eye exam because it requires extra measurements and a follow-up to verify fit. Vision plans often cover part of it as a 'contact lens fit and follow-up' benefit.

How much does a contact lens fitting cost?

Commonly $30 to $75 for a standard spherical fitting and $100 to $250 for specialty lenses such as toric, multifocal, scleral or keratoconus fits. Confirm with the practice.

Can I get contacts the same day as my exam?

Often yes for common prescriptions — most practices keep trial lenses in stock. Toric, multifocal and high powers are usually ordered.

How long is a contact lens prescription valid?

Typically one year in the United States. Under the FTC Contact Lens Rule your prescriber must give you a copy automatically, and you may buy your lenses anywhere.
