Contact Lens

[filipef]

Usually, i buy my contact lens in Europe, online. But i am afraid my stock is not enough until i travel again, so i will have to buy here.

Some years ago, i used to buy them at a Top Charoen shop in bkk (silom rd), but their prices were no longer competitive.

Where (Pattaya, BKK, online) can i buy them for a good price? The better prices i find, around 600 THB for Acuvue 2 and around 900 for Acuvue Osays, much more expensive then in europe, but i dont know id it is the best i can find.

 

Thanks.

I've been in the same situation as you, was a lot of hassle to get my lenses (toric, 30 day) in Pattaya. If I had to do it again I would just order online and get them delivered to my hotel.

I wear Acuvue Oasys monthly contact in my left eye for reading. I live here and get mine for the past 6 years from this shop on Pattaya Klang!

 

6 month supply is 1200฿ which I don't mind paying!

Yes I did, I just took my box from the States to their office. And yes I did get eye test, but a couple years later. This is the box I got last month.

My contacts are delivered within 3-4 days back home. I would try one of the Boots locations in Thailand.

I have used www.ta-to.com multiple times here in Thailand and have found their prices and service to be good.

I use the daily ones, forgive my lack of knowledge but with these ones can you sleep in them?

Used Ta To in Bangkok for years. Mail order service - delivered by Kerry Express usually within 48hrs. Very good prices.

I ended up ordering from Top Charoen online. The site is only in thai, so you may need some help, either from a thai person, either from translation site/app. The price was the best i have found (850 THB for a box of Acuvue Oasys 2 weeks, no delivery charge) and Top Charoen is reliable. It was fast, it took 2 days and they were delivering on Sunday. But there is no prior contact, so the delivery guy called me when he arrived i was away from my building. But we agreed that he would return today,  monday, so i left the money with the security guy (there is also an option to buy with a card, but i prefer to pay on delivery).

Dont know much about online orders. But if you are buying offline then stores inside terminal 21 are good interms of price and service compared to other stores around pattaya
