Almost run out of contacts. Would just order them online but I think I need a new prescription and would like to get a different brand.

Thanks!

Not Jax specific, but if you have a Costco membership (or Sam's) we've always been very happy there. Reasonable rates for exams, and heir contact prices were cheaper than anywhere we found online.

We're in the same boat! I have an appointment tomorrow here -->

St. Johns Eye Associates - Your premier Vision Source eye doctor, taking care of all your eyecare needs.

I am in daily wear contacts, and I've been really happy with them, so I plan to stick with the same brand. Most optometrists say they try to have competitive prices on lenses, but you can find some pretty amazing deals online. From what I understand, if you ask, they are required to give you your prescription, so you can get an exam and then shop around and order online.

This has been the best deal I can find on mine:

Contact Lenses: Order & Buy Discount Contact Lenses at VisionDirect.com

My particular brand offers a pretty large rebate, but not if you purchase from 800 CONTACTS, so with the 25% off from the company above, I save a good bit of $.

Costco - they were the cheapest that I found - $95 for toric contact exam. I really like the dr. as well. I'm always given a trial pair of my new rx, and they give you 2 or 3 months of follow up exams with no charge.
I do order my actual contacts online though.
