Obedience to reason is the foundation of liberty. Reason banishes slavery of self to materialism, to political correctness, to folly, and to range-of-the-moment consciousness known best by the hedonist.
A number of factors can change this estimate, including: Astigmatism. Contact lenses that correct astigmatism cost more than soft contacts that only correct nearsightedness or farsightedness. Soft contact lenses for astigmatism, called toric contacts, frequently retail for $50 to $70 for a box of six lenses. So if you replace your toric contact lenses every two weeks, your annual lens cost is roughly $500 to $700.
A fitting will insure that the lenses are an accurate prescription and that the patient knows how to wear and care for them. The cost for a fitting at a reputable clinic can range from $25 to more than $250. These fittings are often not covered by insurance, and prices vary by clinic and region of the country. Fittings are more complicated for patients with astigmatism or other eye conditions.
