We heard rumours that the contact lens supplier Johnson & Johnson will increase their prices by 15% in May 2013. If the rumors are true, that means we will also have to increase retail prices eventually at Vision Direct.
Buy your Johnson & Johnson contacts in bulk before May to be sure to avoid price increases!
Bit late to tell us now isn’t it? I went to reorder a few days ago and my lenses had already gone from £30 to £39!
We could see that you ordered 1 Day Acuvue. The reason for increased cost prices on this lens is that it has been discontinued. When a product is discontinued, it is normal that prices increase.

Yes I am very disappointed. Mine have gone up by £10, other websites are much cheaper, but wouldn’t let me order one pack, which is all I need. I will be looking into that when I next need to order though.
I can recommend to look into Aura ADM 1 Day as replacements for savings, mentioned in this post: http://blog.visiondirect.co.uk/2013/05/20/replacement-lenses-for-1-day-acuvue-moist/
