How is it getting your eye measured for contacts?

Question

I recently bought a pair of FreshLook contacts from a eyeglaasses shop, without getting my eye measured. The first time I put them on, I had a burning feeling for a little while that went away after a few minutes. The look good but the corners o my eyesight seem blurry to me, like my vision is not 100% perfect when i put them on. Then I was reading and someone said you have to get your eye measured, so I was thinking about doin that and just wanted to know if anyone has gone through thsi experience and how is it? Is it uncomfortable? Im really sensitive about me eyes? How does the procedure go?

Answer 1

It is super simple I have worn contacts for years. All they do is pretty much look at your eyes with a machine. no touching just looking . I dont notice much of a differnce from a normal visit than a contact one.

Answer 2

It is so easy, they don't even touch your eye they just look at it. I was so scared when they said they had to measure my eye, but it was no big deal at all. Here is what they do, pretty much, They take your glasses and note the exact precription that they are so you are looking though your contacts the same way as your glasses! Then they look at your eye with a machine that tells them the shape of your eye so they can make the contact fit your eye!

It is no big deal it only takes like 10 minutes.
