Visit your local optometrist for an eye exam. Whether you have used contacts in the past or have never needed glasses, it is important that you get a checkup before wearing the lenses. While rare, some people have conditions that will prevent them from being able to wear contacts, so it is important that you speak to a doctor before spending the money. Additionally, if you need a prescription, now is the time to get it updated.
