We are adhering to CDC recommendations and monitoring updates very closely. At this time there is no recommendation to discontinue contact lens wear. However the CDC recommends that we refrain from touching our eyes, nose and mouth, as a contact lens wearer that is difficult. To avoid possible infection we have always recommended washing your hands thoroughly before handling your contact lenses. We now recommend that you wash your hands both before and after putting your contact lenses in, and again before contact lens removal.

It is also recommended that you follow all manufacture instructions for proper cleaning and disinfection listed on your contact lens solution bottle. If you are still concerned about disinfection, we recommend you changing to a hydrogen peroxide solution system such as Clear Care. If you choose this brand please make sure that you read the directions carefully prior to use.

If you will need a supply of contact lenses in the next 2-3 months, we are recommending that you order them now. As of Friday 03/20/2020, we will be closed to all non urgent patient appointments, however, we are currently available by phone, text or email to take contact lens orders and are able to directly ship them to your home with FREE SHIPPING. If you wish to order a full year supply, we currently have rebates of up to $200 off, please contact the office for more details.

We aren’t sure how long our distributer will continue to fill orders, so if you think you will need contact lenses we suggest ordering them as soon as possible.

Currently our customer service hours for non-urgent issues are Monday – Friday 10am to 4pm until further notice. Should there be any changes to our customer service hours, we will make sure to notify you as soon as possible. Please don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions or concerns via phone call or text message at 301-490-3036 or via email at info@firstsightvisioncare.com.
