Default Where can I buy contacts online without a prescription?

Visiondirect.com asked for a prescription, so I gave them the name of the place I last got my eyes checked in 2001. They checked with LensCrafters and it said my prescription was out of date. So VisionDirect won't mail me any contacts. There's no way I'm shelling out more money for another eye exam, because my current prescription works fine for me (glasses and a few days of contacts left).

Default I think all "legal" places are required to ask for one and it has to be within 1 year.

Default I was at a plant last week that makes the disposable type.

They scraps 10's of thousands a day for little reason. The next time I'm back I will have a few prescription orders with me.

Default Problem is my daily lenses have an expiration date, and I don't use them all that often.

It's bullsh1t that I can't get the same prescription as before.

Default vision direct works fine for me with a 2 year old perscription

if they cant contact your doctor they will send them out no problem, make up a doctor and phone #. Should be fine.
