We all know that contact lenses are not the most affordable vision care products, even when you use Contacts Advice to find the lowest price for your brand. So in this article I’m going to reveal the absolute most inexpensive contact lenses online.
No, it’s not gimmick
Now if you think that it’s some kind of flash deal, or they can only be obtained with a valid discount code, nope. This brand always goes for the same price. No flash sales and volume discounts, no coupon codes.
No, they are not an ancient brand
Generally speaking, older contact lens brands are less expensive than the newer ones. But rest assured that the most inexpensive contact lenses online are not some ancient brand that no one uses anymore.
No, they are not terrible quality
Unfortunately we often equate the price of a product with its quality. Sometimes that’s true. In fact, that’s often true. But in this case it couldn’t be further from the truth. That’s right, the most inexpensive contact lenses online are actually very high quality and made by one of the leaders and founders of daily disposable contact lenses.
No, they are not a yearly or quarterly brand
A long time ago we had contact lenses that we practically never threw away. We just kept reusing them same pair for months and months and months and somehow we thought that was a good idea. Those days are long gone! In fact it may surprise you that the most inexpensive contact lenses online aren’t even monthly or bi-weekly disposable.
They are high quality, daily disposable contact lenses!
So what are they?
The Most Inexpensive Contact Lenses Online
DaySoft daily disposable contact lenses are the most inexpensive contact lenses online.
How inexpensive?
Only $7.99 per box (32 lenses)!
That’s $15.98 for 32 pairs of daily disposable contact lenses!
That’s 50¢ per pair!
How inexpensive is that?
It may be difficult to fully comprehend just how inexpensive DaySoft daily disposable contact lenses are without comparing them to other contact lens brands you thought were inexpensive.

Keep in mind that I know where to find the lowest price for every brand!
While Hubble has a fixed price, the price of Dailies AquaComfort Plus and SofLens Daily Disposable varies wildly from website to website. The price I used in the comparisons above are the lowest prices on the internet for those brands. So although they seems to compare somewhat in price with DaySoft, they would actually be much more expensive if you took their average price across all contact lens websites.
Don’t worry, it’s not a secret!
I do hundreds of price checks at all the top contact lens websites to undercover the lowest price for every brand and I post all the results right here on Contacts Advice for everybody to see.
Not sure if you’ve been getting your contact lenses for the lowest possible price? Just head over to Contacts Advice’s homepage and scroll down until you find your brand!

No Taxes, No Handling Fee, No Duties, No Processing Fee
If you’re skeptical about the price of DaySoft contact lenses, I don’t blame you. It is a little mind blowing. But here a screenshot of me ordering 2 boxes of DaySoft Silk. This is the final checkout page, where all applicable fees have been added.
Note that in the above screenshot there is a shipping fee but no taxes, no handling fees, processing fees, duties, etc.
Are DaySoft Contact Lenses Safe?
Unlike many overseas (particularly from Asia) contact lens manufacturers, DaySoft is extremely transparent about all of the quality requirements and regulatory processes they adhere to.
To read more about how they are regulated, you can read about it here.
What’s The Difference Between DaySoft SILK and DaySoft CLASSIC?
The only difference is the solution that the contact lenses are packaged in.
SILK refers to a solution with added moisturizing agents to help keep the contact lenses comfortable throughout the day. Whereas the CLASSIC solution is simple saline with no added agents.
Both DaySoft SILK and DaySoft CLASSIC are the same price.
DaySoft Limitations
No Astigmatism Correction
DaySoft contact lenses are spherical, meaning they are not for anybody with a contact lens prescription for astigmatism. As far as I am aware, they are not planning to launch an astigmatism version anytime soon.
Not Available in Stores
DaySoft can only be ordered online. You will not be able to order these in stores anywhere. Yes, that means that you’ll have to wait a few days for shipping, but on the bright side that’s why their prices are so low (no retail/middleman mark-ups).
What do you think?
Now that you know what the most inexpensive contact lenses online are, are you going to try them? Have you already tried them in the past? If so I would love to hear about your experience with them. Please let me know in the comments below :)
