First Thing's First
For starters, if you have never worn contact lenses then you need to visit an eye doctor. He or she will perform a special examination that will determine whether or not you are a candidate for contact lenses. These examinations are not the same as those related to glasses. In addition to a comprehensive eye exam, your eye doctor will perform specific tests which will evaluate your vision with the proposed contact lens prescription. The first exam will measure the surface of your eye to determine the best fit for you. After that, your doctor may do a tear film evaluation. The examination will test your eye's ability to make the necessary tears which will allow you to wear contacts comfortably.
Bear in mind they even if you go through the examination by an optometrist, you are under no obligation to purchase contact lenses there at thier office, despite the fact that they may try to strongly encourage you to purchase them that day.
