So I purchased new contacts through 1-800 Contacts.com with the prescription I got through the student health optometrists at UCSD. Given I didn't order them for a good month after I got the prescription.. that shouldn't matter. So I get my new contacts and when I put them on they're fucking blurry as hell. I call in and they tell me that....
1. the optometrist I had seen no longer works there
2. it's not their prescription, it's probably MY eyes and that the astigmatism I have may be affecting the contacts I ordered because they're a different brand from what I was given for a sample pair
3. I can't come in for a checkup until NEXT MONDAY
So now, not only do I have to return the contacts I ordered, order another prescription, WAIT FOR ALL THIS TO HAPPEN.. I might have to buy toric lenses for my fucking astigmatism. Toric lenses are significantly more expensive. FUCK ME NOW.
I don't get how if the brand is different from the sample trial pair I was given, shouldn't the bitch have known that before giving me that prescription?! FUCKING HELL. I have to walk around freaking HALF BLIND because I procrastinated on buying lenses sooner and because some bitch fucked up my prescription and UCSD doesn't want to take credit for it.
