Considering Contacts?

There are a number of elements that make up the initial cost of contact lenses, not the least of which is the professional services necessary to provide the best lens selection and a good start toward safe, successful wear. If you are considering contacts, remember the services and materials needed are the initial office visit;
a thorough diagnostic examination;
the lens care kit;lens wear and care training; and follow-up visits over a specified period.

If you already wear lenses and need replacements or if you want a spare pair, the total charge can include the actual cost of the lenses plus a service fee based on how much of the doctor’s time is required.
It is important to check out costs when considering contacts, but don’t base your decision on cost alone. All types of lenses are not the same. It is important for you to get the lenses that are healthiest for you and the professional services and follow-up care to help you wear your lenses successfully
