I suspect there are different prices for monthly torics and daily torics.

Sorry, yes there are probably different prices for all of them. Mine are monthly disposables @ £17.50pm.

Aww thanks everyone... Mine are toric lenses ....... I`m paying the highest price for them to at £25 a month.. !! Ouch !! Anyone know of anyone cheaper?

What brand are they? I used to get my torics from D&A and paid the same as you. I found loads of places online that sell Bausch & Lomb Toric lenses (the ones D&A supplied me with) you have to buy a 6 month supply but it's well worth it as it worked out to be around £10 a month. Even if you add the cost of cleaning fluid it still works out much cheaper.

I am going to try the new Orthox lenses.
These are ones that you put in overnight and then you can see clearly during the day without glasses or lenses.
I think they are more expnesive initially.
They are for low/mid short sight and cater for some degree of astigmatism.
(check the website for exact presription range).

My daughter started on these orthok lenses last week - after 6 nights she has gone to school today for the first time without needing to wear lenses or glasses - she is over the moon. Worth every penny.

Was given wrong prescription by D&A too, & they broke my glasses - http://www.opticalcomplaints.co.uk/ - report to OCCS it's the best thing you can do, the head office will just ignore your complaints!
