We will always request to confirm your prescription for toric contact lenses.

The contact lens specification transmitted in your order is valid and corresponds to the most recent fitting carried out by a registered optician or ophthalmic medical practitioner and is no more than one year old. Optimal use of contact lenses is assured if the wearer is familiar with the care and handling of contact lenses and regularly takes part in the necessary ophthalmological examinations, in order to prevent any damage to the eyes.

We explicitly request that contact lens wearers should have their eyes examined at least every year, with fitting check every 6 months or as per their optician’s guidance. If the wearer has changed their brand, they should have the fit checked carefully by an ophthalmologist or a contact lens specialist. Regarding risks and side effects, please consult an ophthalmologist or contact lens specialist and make sure you read the manufacturer’s information enclosed with each product.

The respective manufacturer is exclusively responsible for the compatibility of the delivered products. Merchandise is delivered in the manufacturer’s original, unopened factory packaging. We accept no liability for incorrect use or improper handling. In order to ensure good health of your eyes, the recommended wearing period must not be exceeded. Should you develop any form of ocular irritation, please remove the contact lenses immediately and contact an ophthalmologist or eye specialist.

Contact Lens Prescription Verification – US Customers

When placing an order for delivery to the United States of America we will ensure that your contact lens prescription is verified. This ensures that your order complies with the US FCLCA (The Fairness to Contact Lens Consumers Act) regulations.

We always aim to make this process as easy as possible for you and you can either provide us with a copy of your current contact lens prescription, this must include your full details (Name, Address, Prescription Power and Brand/Manufacturer) and also the full details of your optometrist (Name, Address and Telephone Number). You can email your current contact lens prescription to contact@solotica.com. Alternatively, if you do not have a copy of your prescription this isn’t a problem, we only need the Name and Contact Details, including Telephone Number for your optometrist and we will then submit the verification request. We submit this request by calling your optician. The verification request asks that your optometrist verifies the prescription of the products you have ordered and that they confirm this to solotica.com (the seller/vendor) either through email or by phone. The FCLCA requires that we wait a minimum of 8 hours from submitting the verification request to your optometrist before we can ship your order. The 8-hour time window is applicable during your optometrists standard business hours and is not applicable outside of this time. This allows time for your optometrist to respond to the request at their convenience. The response from your optometrist can be received either through email or phone to our team. To ensure that your optometrist has time to respond please be advised that it can take up to 24 hours for the reply to be received, due to time difference and their working hours. In situations where your optometrist doesn’t confirm your prescription request within the 8-hour timeframe, your prescription is automatically verified and solotica.com (the seller/vendor) is allowed to ship the products to the customer.

When your order has been shipped you will always receive a tracking email advising you of the shipment details. If you have any questions related to this please feel free to reach us at contact@solotica.com
