How often do you need to get a contact eye exam?

[Falls Church city]

I got contacts and a exam almost a year ago. My contacts supply is running out and I have to decide if I should get a eye exam or just order them online. Is it necessity to get a contact eye exam every year or every 2 years.

it all depends on your age and type of eye problem. IF you are still young , it is better to get an eye exam every year since your eyesight is changing to make sure you get the right prescription. But if you are over 30s or older, you can have a check every 2 years. but being safe is better than none.
