colored contacts w/out prescription could be bought at regular stores a few years back but the FDA made the companies require people to go to the eye doctor. because contacts need to be fitted (so to say), and only an eye doctor can do that.

No, with the aid of fact of this it particularly is unlawful. you like a prescription from an eye fixed scientific professional for any sort of touch lens, whether you do no longer desire innovative and prescient correction. Lenses are no longer each of a similar length and eyeballs are no longer each of a similar length. you would be able to desire to be equipped by ability of a professional to make useful the lenses artwork for you. you besides would would desire to be knowledgeable on a thank you to look after them and monitored on a similar time as you place on them. Contacts would reason corneal abrasions and ulcers to boot to nasty infections, the two of that would desire to hold approximately blindness. Walmart and Costco usually have optical departments the place you may get an eye fixed examination and installation for a sprint extra value-effective than a private scientific professional. as quickly as you have your prescription, you will desire to purchase them interior the path of the scientific professional's place of work or on line.

They are by prescription only and you can only get them at places that sale contacts. I get mine at the vision center in walmart. They always have the best prices.

A regfular store is very generic, I know you can buy them at Walmart if that helps.

you can't get them unless you have a perscription even if they are just colored. if you have a perscription you can go to any pharmacy. they don't just sell contacts at a "regular store."
