I went today for a routine eye exam. After 2 hours I was finally done, but my $40 co pay turned into almost $200. I was never told that I was getting fitted for contacts, I was just told I could try a different brand and if I liked them could purchase at my follow up. I chose not to buy the contacts but had to pay $79 for the fitting, that I didn't even know was going on, plus my $40 copay. I think the DR should let you know that they are doing a fitting, when you are only there for a routine exam. This was my first time going, and I believe will be my last time going to your office.
