Free trial contact lenses can be extremely beneficial to consumers. Whether you are preparing to get contact lenses for the first time, or simply considering changing contact lens brands, it can be difficult to know which brand and style are right for you. Taking advantage of your ability to get a free sample of contact lenses will make it easier for you to find the perfect lens for you.
A pair of free trial of contact lenses is available for many different lens types and brands. The free trial consists of one free pair of a specific brand or type, which can be worn long enough to decide if the lens is right for you. In general, obtaining a free trial requires calling a promotional phone number or visiting the manufacturer’s website.
You will be required to fill out a simple form, and a certificate will be mailed to you. Some manufacturers will also email the free trial certificate if you choose that option. The certificate will entitle you to one free pair of the contact lenses.
Of course, using your free trial certificate is not as simple as redeeming a coupon at the grocery store. Because the contact lenses are generally prescription lenses, you will need to have a contact lens prescription to get the free pair, which means scheduling an eye exam. Some certificates even specify that the free pair can only be used in conjunction with an eye exam, while some optometrists will only honor the certificates with new prescriptions. It is important to make sure the doctor you choose accepts the certificates prior to trying to use one.
It is even possible to get free colored contact lenses using the free trial certificates. While most manufacturers of colored contact lenses do not currently offer free trials, Acuvue 2 Colors and Fresh-Look color lenses both have available free trial offers. Free trials of colored contact lenses are an incredible opportunity for anyone who has ever wanted to try colored lenses but hesitated because of the cost involved or fear of how they would look.
Finally, no two pairs of eyes are alike. In fact, one person can have two completely different lens needs, such as one spherical and one toric. In cases where different types, or even different brands, of contact lenses are needed, experimenting with the lenses can become expensive. Free contact lenses make it possible to try different lenses without breaking the bank.
While some people are content to simply rely on their eye doctor’s choice of contact lens, most prefer to find the lens that is best suited to their unique needs. Free trial contact lenses make it possible to experiment with brands, styles and colors in order to find the perfect contact lenses without the need to spend a fortune.
