Many people in Canada, whether residents or extended-stay visitors, purchase their contact lenses online. Buying contact lenses online often will save money in comparison to purchasing them directly from the optometrist. Find name brand-contacts at one of Canada's most comprehensive sources for contact lenses online.

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Contact lens prescription
  1. Step 1
     

    Go to ClearlyContacts.ca (see Resources). Clearly Contacts is one of Canada's largest online optical stores.

  2. Step 2
     

    Click on the Easy Ordering link labeled "Select Your Lenses" for a full list of the products the site offers. Also feel free to choose contact lenses by category (daily, weekly, monthly), customer favorites and featured products, which often shows discounted items.

  3. Step 3
     

    Click on your preferred brand of contact lenses.

  4. Step 4
     

    Enter the number of contact lens boxes you want from the drop-down boxes for the right and left eyes under the Enter Your Prescription section.

  5. Step 5
     

    Enter the power (your prescription) from the drop-down boxes for the right and left eyes.

  6. Step 6
     

    Enter the base curve from the drop-down boxes for the right and left eyes. Contact lenses are spherically shaped, and the base curve is the radius of that sphere. The base curve is important to ensure proper fit. The base curve number is on your prescription.

  7. Step 7

    Click "Add to Cart."

  8. Step 8
     

    Enter your shipping information into the designated areas, plus any coupon codes that you may have. There is also an Auto Refill option if you want to have new boxes automatically sent to you.

  9. Step 9
     

    Ensure the box next to "I Accept the Terms and Conditions of Use" is checked. To view the terms and conditions, click on the hyperlinked text. Click "Continue."

  10. Step 10

    Enter the appropriate billing information and finalize your order.

Tips & Warnings
  • After completing Step 3, click on the "Also Available in Colours" to view and purchase colored contact lens options.
