Contact Lenses Canada are easily purchased

The biggest difference between contact lenses in the United States and contact lenses in Canada is that cosmetic contacts are not regulated by the health department and can be purchased over the counter. However, Health Canada, Canada’s health department has issued warnings about the health risks involved with the use of improper fitting contact lenses.

You can purchase your contact lenses in Canada the same ways that you can purchase them in the United States, with the exception of cosmetic contacts. You can make your purchase directly from the manufacturer or your eye care doctor, by mail, over the phone or Internet and at department and warehouse stores.

Before you can get your contact lenses in Canada you must visit your eye care doctor and get a prescription for proper vision correction and fit. An improper fit can cause serious damage to the cornea of your eyes. Cosmetic lenses can be purchased over the counter like you would a pain reliever or cold medicine.
