They cancelled my appointment last winter at a time when I could have gone with a mask (non-allergy season). They told me at the time that I could order more contacts if I needed them. I didn't order any because I still had a good supply. When my appointment came in the spring and masks were still required, I had to cancel my appointment and tried to order more contacts. They refused, and also refused to honor any of my online attempts to order more from other sources (all required a doctor's approval). I ended up wearing my remaining two pairs of contacts for months longer than I was supposed to until I could get past my allergy season. Needless to say, I eventually got in to see another doctor, but my eyes were in bad shape by then and are still recovering.
