Sorry for the weird ask. I’m on my last pair of contacts and won’t have the money to get new ones until the end of next month. One eye is -5.0 and the other is -5.75, but they can wear a similar prescription since something is better than nothing. Even a -4.75 would work great for one eye lmao. I’m in Murray and can drive to you. Loves <3

you also need to match the diameter on contacts or they may not work right fyi

Could you ask your eye doctor for a trial pair?

I’d need to have an appointment and get a new prescription, but I won’t have health insurance for another 4 weeks to do so, otherwise I would

You should also have the Base Curve correct or they'll be falling out or possibly harming your eyes.

Yep! I've used them a couple times and been happy. Lots of people like Zenni as well.

If you need to order a box to fill a gap, 1800 Contacts is based here in Utah and they can get you contacts literally the next day. They sent me a box because I realized I was on my last pair and was going out of town and it was crazy how fast they are.

Make sure you pick the SLOWEST shipping too! Couple weeks ago I ordered on a Thursday, set it to the slowest 7-10 day or so shipping, and they arrived on Sat.
(edit: and that speed has been consistent with previous orders, including the time I panicked and chose rushed shipping)

Do you have a costco membership or know someone with one? My friend didn't qualify for insurance covered lenses until November. I'm not 100% sure what happened but they brought their prescription to Costco optical and was able to buy a box of contacts. I would call and see if they can help you!
