    Get your prescription or the box that your contact lenses came in. When you log on to your choice of store, you will need information regarding the strength, size, and shape of your contacts for each eye. It is really simple and easy to figure out as most web sites have drop down menus with numbers for you to choose from. You can easily figure out which number is which. Look at the picture I attached for help.

  2. Step 2

    Search online for the website that offers the best discount on your type of contact lens. I would recommend doing a web search by typing in the exact name of the brand you use.

  3. Step 3

    Enter in your order information .

  4. Step 4

    When prompted, enter in your eye doctor's information. The company will contact your doctor regarding your prescription. Based upon the notice that I was sent, I interpreted this: if your eye doctor does not respond within a few days, they assume that they do not have a problem with you requesting additional contact lenses and the order goes through.

  5. Step 5

    When your order arrives, be sure that the brand and prescription are an identical match to current lenses. Do not open the box before you do this. Once you open the box, you can not return any lenses.

  6. Step 6

    Enjoy the comfort of new lenses!
