Best place online to buy Softlens 66 Toric contact lenses?

[imported_Tomato]

Any recommendations, good/bad experiences with online retailers?

I've never purchased contacts online before, but I have a feeling I should probably be able to get them for a cheaper price than $40/box (amount charged by my optometrist).

And yes, I'm a CostCo member if that matters...

I'll check it out, thanks for the recommendation. Have you ever used that site yourself?

 

[BustaBust]

Yes, 3 times or so.

Have you ever tried non-torics?
I have astigmatism in one eye but not the other, but I wear regular contacts in both eyes, and my vision is fine in both.
I would assume though that you've already been tried on non-torics to see if they were any good.

uh, 1.800.contacts?

I have, and my astigmatism is just too bad.

i have gotten them through 1800contacts.com and were very happy. i use the same lenses as you

 

[imported_Tomato]

Let's see...

saveonlens.com has them for $28.95/box (6 lenses/box), or as low as $25.24 a box after Rebate

lensmart has the Softlens 66 Torics for $27.85/box (6 lenses/box)

1-800-CONTACTS has them for $24.95-29.95/box, depending on the quantity ordered

All are much better than the $40/box my optometrist is charging! I wonder how much CostCo's are, nobody ever picks up the phone there.

1800contacts.com looks like the best choice right now w/that mail-in rebate. I might do that, thanks Lola!

Theres a wide range of astigmatism. I have a very slight astimatism in one eye, and major astigmatism in the other. You probably have a very minor case of astigmatism if normal contacts work for you. Normal contacts just dont seat properly one on my eyes.

I think I have 180 or something, can't remember exactly what was said.

I've been using them for my torics for the last year and a half, no problems whatsoever

Thought I heard somewhere that Softlens 66 was being discontiuned...?

Think my last checkup I had to switch from Softlens 66 (non-Toric) to Acuvue Advance for that reason.

I hate Toric lenses (although I have to wear one in my left eye), they're thick, hard, and roll around a lot.

 

[dethman]
