I just got back from an eye exam. The optometrist told me to wear
my contacts, but throw them away when I take them out for the
night, and put on a new pair in the morning. He said sometimes the
drops could contaminate the lenses and re-dilate my eyes in the
morning.
I'm nearsighted, not sure if it's different for people that are
farsighted.

this is a confusing question. I am thinking it was how can you
get new contacts without an eye exam and insurance. - your exam and
contact lens prescription is only good for one year from the date
of service. By law no eye place is to dispense you contacts without
a current eye exam due to you put them in your eyes. There is
vision insurance out there that will pick up the cost of the eye
exam minus a copay. most medical insurances will also cover one
routine exam per year or every other year. all you need to do is
call the member services number on your card.
