Has anyone had their contacts...?!


Question:

Has anyone had their contacts...?

riped or broken (however you view it) the same day they get them


Answers:

If it happened the same day you got them, I would call your doctor. I know at the Optometrist office where I work , we are usually pretty understanding about that kind of thing and we let it slide the first time...

Also, sometimes its a defective lens. They make millions of lenses and there is bound to be a bad one here and there. If its a disposable lens, they should be able to replace it free of charge with a diagnostic (or trial) lens. If it was vialed daily wear lens, they should be able to return the lens for credit as defective and replace it for you free of charge.

Save the lens and the original container it came in, whether its a vial or a blister pack (for disposable lenses) and call your doctor. They may want to see the lens and will want to return it if necessary...

If it happens again, I'm afraid that's going to be your fault. Careful with how your handling the lenses. Be sure to clean them in a "back and forth" motion, instead of a circular motion. Cleaning them with a circular motion tends to rip them.
