I checked out Lens.com and it seems as though they're still selling Focus 1-2 Week Visitint contacts with no end in sight. You may want to order from them: http://www.lens.com/contact-lenses/lens142.asp

Trouble is, you will need a prescription from your doctor, but if he's not writing prescriptions for them anymore, there may be a problem. Try telling him that you did some research and couldn't find anything about these lenses being discontinued. Don't call him a liar, but ask him for more information about Focus 1-2 Week Visitint contact lenses being discontinued, like when and why.
