I Wanna Get Home Delivery Contact Lenses

I want to start wearing cntact lenses again. I have quite strong astigmatism and have worn glasses snce I gave up my old contact lenses in 2004. Back then, I bought a set of non-disposable lenses from Specsavers. However, this time I want to be able to buy monthly disposable lenses online.

What do I need to do before I start ordering lenses? I have an eye prescription from last year. I think I might have to do a contact lens assessment, but will any high-street optician do this for me if I don't intend to buy lenses from them?

Thanks for any help!

    The one I use (http://www.contactlens.co.uk) doesn't require anything, I could make up a prescription and they'd send it, although I'd not recommend that.

    As a bonus, they're the cheapest I've found for my lenses (B&L Purevision).
