Nothing is more precious than your sight, and you should never put it at risk. A contact lens is a prescription device and it must only be fit and prescribed by an Eye Care Professional. Although all eyes look pretty much the same, in reality everybody's eyes are slightly different.
Eyes come in a variety of shapes and sizes.
That's why it's important to have your Eye Care Professional fit your contact lenses for your particular eye's shape and size. Borrowing contact lenses, or obtaining them without a prescription, could lead to serious vision problems due to incorrect fit. Even if you've been wearing contacts for years, it's a good idea to have your Eye Care Professional check your prescription to make sure that your lenses offer the best possible fit for your unique eyes. In order to take good care of your eyes, we recommend you see your Eye Care Professional at least once a year. Yearly visits can detect vision changes as well as any other unseen problems.
