• Answer:

  Was the $95 for the entire exam, or was that the extra contact lens fitting? That seems a bit steep unless you are doing a monofit or something else extraordinary. First of all, never buy a one year supply of contacts if it is a brand that you have never worn. They should not have tried to sell those to you untl you came back for your follow up visit. When you go back for your follow up for the Coopervision, tell them you don't like them and want something else. They should not charge you for another follow up. Once you receive the contacts you like, ask for a copy of your prescription. Don't be upset because the optician was showing you sunglasses. You really should be wearing them anyway. If you don't like the ones she showed you, just politely let her know. Never feel pressure to buy anything. If you feel pressure, take your prescription and walk.
