Should I go to the doctor before using eye contacts?

Question

I need eye contacts because I want to change my eye color, my eye sight is good as I tested in school about 3 months ago. Can I just order a pair online or should I go to the professional doctor?

Answer 1

yes because you will need to be fitted for contacts.

Answer 2

You can't just go out and buy contacts!

At the pro places, you need an Rx (but in this case you won't because it seems you have fine eyesight already) or at least the measmurement of how big your eyes are and what kind of curve your contacts need.

If you wear contacts that don't fit properly, your eyes could hurt and turn red! owwww.........

You need to at least get your eyes measured at an eye place of some sort otherwise your contacts won't fit very well. You know, that's why it's called "fitting for contacts".....!!!

Hope I helped and that you get them soon!

Answer 3

I would see a professional! At least you know where the contacts are coming from.

Answer 4

Yes you should.

Answer 5

no

Answer 6

You will need a full eye exam because the simple test done at your school is not enough for contacts. You'll need a full exam, and they need to determine the base curve you require as well as the diameter.

They are medical devices, even if you need no correction.

Answer 7

You should really go to a professional b/c they need to determine the diameter of the contact to make sure it fits your eye correctly
