Is there anywhere on the net you can order contacts even though your prescription is expired?
DD, a poor college student, had a complete eye exam a year ago at Christmas. She went to order fresh lenses at 1 800 contacts but the eye doctor blocked the sale saying her scrip is expired.
I called and asked if she could get an extension and just order one box to get her through graduation but they said no because "she might have something in her eye and then we'd be legally liable."
The doc confirmed that if she had called in an order the day before her scrip expired, she could have ordered a 5 year supply without any problem. So this seems like a "gotcha" to me.
I'm a good mom, on a very tight budget. I'm not trying to let DD go blind. She'll see her eye doctor in August. But how do I get lenses for her to use right now?
