Does Your Eye Doctor Limit You?

I know this may sound like a crazy question but does a eye doctor limit you what colors you can use or are you free to choose?

Hi ken770. This your first time here? Welcome.

Your eye doctor probably has a limited number of trial lenses he or she can let you test out. They probably won't tell you "Green only, no blue," but they may ask you to chose, let's say, your three favorite colors instead of trying on every contact lens in the place.

Does that answer your question?

Do you mean what colours I'm free to buy? I can't imagine my eye guy limiting me in any way, but we have a great relationship. I've been going to him for years for eye care and he and his secretary come to me for massage therapy. I barter massage for my glasses and my daughter's as well, although now I also have a job with insurance, so now he can get paid by them and I can barter the balance. It's all good.
