For contact lenses customers:
We undertake to supply you with the exact type and brand of contact lens prescribed by your optician in the contact lens prescription sent by you to us. While we use our reasonable endeavours to ensure that lenses of the correct prescription are supplied to you, you should confirm that the identifying lens prescription description notified to you is accurate and correct for your current eye condition. We can accept no responsibility for your lack of suitability to wear contact lenses as detailed in the prescription, or for your overall suitability to wear contact lenses.

You have not been advised to stop wearing contact lenses by an eye care or medical practitioner and have not, within the last 12 months suffered from any eye condition requiring treatment.
If we are not satisfied with your ocular health or consider that the replacement contact lenses requested according to the specification provided to us are not clinically suitable, we retain the right not to supply those products to you.
You will not attempt to wear any lens where the lens prescription does not match your current lens prescription and that the left and right lenses should be worn only in the corresponding eye.
You have a contact lens check at least once in any period of twelve months or more frequently, if recommended by your optician.
You consent to us contacting your optician or contact lens practitioner to verify your contact lens specification if necessary, and that if the verified details do not match those provided by you, we will be unable to complete the sale to you until you undergo an eye test with an optician or contact lens practitioner. If, for any reason, you do not wish to undergo an eye test, you may cancel the order.
You are not experiencing any discomfort with the contact lenses you are currently prescribed to wear.
