£141 saving on contact lenses

My Mrs has just found a site where I can purchase the exact same contact lenses , in my prescription, as I get from Dollond and Aitchison in the post each month.

I currently pay £30pcm for Bausch and Lomb daily disposables

THis site will provide a years supply for £219.. saving £141 a year!

Their three month supply is just £59, saving me £31..

had my prescription confirmed just last month, so feel this is well worth pursuing.

Heres a link to the page: http://www.postoptics.co.uk/productdetails.aspx?subname=Bausch $ Lomb&productid=f8d4ab28-8e65-4ec9-b785-48baa5b2a027 They do loads of others..

Regards to all

  • I used to get these for free cause I was under 18. NHS (wonderful thing) covers it if you are pally enough with your GP.
  • I buy my B&L lenses once a year as it works out much cheaper - used to get them from D&A until I saw the light! Most recent supply came from www.getlenses.com - they usually do pretty good deals such as a free month, or £5 off etc.

    My brand (soflens) are currently £219 for 13 months supply so that beats postoptics. However, they are not quite so competitive for 3 months supply (£64). Here's the link:

    can you elaborate on this
    my daughter age 12 is severely short sighted and weras glasses all the time,
    I buy contact lenses for her because the lenses in the glasses are so thick she is really conscious of them, but I can only afford 12 pairs of contacts per month, she uses daily ones
