  1. Depends on your optometrist I think that at wal mart and costco have are cheap... Where I went they were like $100...


  2. depends...mine cost me about 80 bucks but thats for one eye.

  3. I pay $66 for a 6 month supply.  These are for ones that last one month so you get only 6 pairs.

    I was going to switch to dailys but the price was about $200 for 6 months.  So I didnt go for it.

    Oh yeah....$50 for every contact fitting.

    Any time you switch brands or types the eye dr will want to refit you.  Also every two years I have to have them checked that they still fit even if I am using the same ones.

  4. mine are acuvue oasis and it costs $30 for a box with  months worth of contacts in it (3pairs). bt itdepends on what you insurance will pay and what brand you get, plus the fact that you have an astigmatism---but its do-able.

  5. About 15-32 dollars.

  6. my sis gets optics and its about 100 dollars a year 25 dollars for a bow of contacts

  7. My contacts were approx. $70/box per eye.  Each box has 6 lenses.  I could make these last for about 6 months (cost was $140).  Total cost for a year was approx. $280.  My insurance covered either contacts or glasses, but not both.  Since glasses were more expensive, I used my insurance to get those and paid for the contacts myself.  I recommend having a back-up pair of glasses even if you get contacts.  I eventually graduated to LASIK, which I highly recommend.

    I also have astigmatisms in both eyes.

    I got my contacts from www.1800contacts.com.  Keep in mind you contact prescription is only valid for 1 year, so order enough to get you through before it expires.  Otherwise, you'll have to pay for another eye exam to get a new prescription.  This website does check every single time you renew, even if you script is on file, and they will deny you if it's over 1 year old.  I always re-ordered a little early for the next years supply (like 1 week before the script expired if I felt my sight hadn't changed).

  8. it matters wat brand you get

  9. There are so many out there.  Depends on your needs; including astigmatism.  They can range from $15 a box to $60 with 6 in a box.  Usually (unless you are my husband who has the exact prescription for both eyes) you need 2 boxes; one for each eye so double your box price.  I get mine at Costco and they are much cheaper than going to a 'one hour or less' place.  Also 1-800-Contacts is another great place to try.

  10. go to saveonlens.com they have great prices, I would say around $30 for a box of 12

  11. there is no exact cost it all depends on if they have medicine or not and or what brand you get

  12. Depends on insurance. Mine were like $15
