I'don't know if you already have contact lenses, but please be aware that you need a special prescription for contact lenses (even if you don't need glasses). This is because contact lenses need to have the same curvature as your eye. This is also called the Base Curve (B.C.) and holds usually a value between 8.0 and 9.5. Wearing contact lenses with a wrong B.C. can damage your cornea, so it is strongly recommended that you first get a prescription. In addition, during your test the optometrist will ensure you can get the contact lenses in and out properly, and will provide you with important tips for wearing them. Hope this helps!
