Where can I find color contacts for sale that do NOT require an eye exam? I looked it up online and it says that by law, you must have an eye exam to get them, but a lot of people I know have color contacts that they got from friends.

If the contacts are not the right size and shape, they're not going to stay in your eyes. Basically, you need to get your eyes measured for the contacts. :) [ sizzlinmandolin's advice column | Ask sizzlinmandolin A Question ]
