A lot of people wonder if they have to see an eye doctor to get prescription contacts, even if they non correction colored contact. The answer to this is “yes.” The nice thing, though, is that they’re actually pretty easy to get. You can even get them for free if you follow a few steps.

People who already wear colored contacts also need to order them with their prescription unless they’re going to be wearing them along with their glasses but glasses can often hide your eyes, so there wouldn’t be too much of a point in doing that.

What you need to do is just go see an eye doctor or optometrist for a simple eye exam. They will test your vision and measure your eyes for the best fitting contacts. They also test for glaucoma when you get your eye exam, so it’s good to go for that since it’s a simple test. It’s the one that Rachel on the TV show, Friends, didn’t want to get because there’s a small puff of air that they shoot into your eye. I’ve had it, it’s not bad at all.
