I saw somewhere how you can get a free trial of O2 Optix contacts. Does anybody know how this is done? Do you need to print up a coupon and bring it to your eye doctor? Mail in a copy of your prescription? Something else?

You need an EXAM which will cost you, the trial lens is free. It is NOT deceptive or false advertising. Too many of ya out there thinking this is just a game, but ya want a lawyer to sue us when you ignore us or the mfr. Your post gives the impression you just want something free - we doctors are NOT in the profession to give ya stuff or our time. You don't do your job for free do ya?

Slow down there, fschultz4is. If you read my post again, slowly, and pay attention this time, you'll notice certain key words. Words like "eye doctor" and "prescription."

This isn't about getting "something for free." This is about a service I'd heard about. The "free trial lens" you mentioned. I don't know how it works, but I know it happens AFTER the eye exam. I was hoping for a constructive, helpful answer which--thankfully--is the norm at Lens 101.
