Is there such a thing as free contact lenses? 

The surprising answer is yes; free contact lenses can be found! Some eye care suppliers allow a trial period where they provide free contact lenses so that new users can decide, at no cost to them, if their new contacts are satisfactory. 

When manufacturers design new product lines, they sometimes give out free contact lenses to their existing clients. For example, when daily disposables were first manufactured, they were given out for free to attract potential clients. To receive trial contacts for free, most interested customers are required to fill out an online application with the lens manufacturer. They must then bring a hard copy of the application to their eye care provider, where they may redeem the free trial certificate. 

Online lens providers often offer some great deals to get free contact lenses. They offer buy one get one free promotions. They sometimes even provide free shipping and handling. 

Sometimes, eye care practitioners provide free contact lenses to their new customers. This might be a safer, free alternative as your eye doctor will be better qualified to assess what type of contacts would be best for you. 

Free contact lenses - with careful research, you can find some great deals on the market.
