Are these available in Northern Cyprus? I currently live in UK but aim to retire here soon. I currently order from Boots opticians in UK and receive a supply every 3 months but could order a few boxes before coming out to live? Any replies gratefully received

they are really expensive here (prob 3 times the uk price), hard to get hold of and even more expensive in the South.....

Thanks for your prompt response! Sounds bad news - maybe best to buy in bulk in the UK then! Thanks again!

yes buy as many as you can as Nick said they are very expensive here, but when you retire here order them on the net through spec savers and get a friend to bring them over for you,

Can't help you there but when i started using contacts earlier this year i started with Acuvue but could not get on with them, so now use Daysoft lenses bought on the net much more comfortable and a lot cheaper too. Under £20 for a 2 month supply. Daysoft was set up by the guy who invented daily disposables.

The problem with getting them from the UK is you have to fly back at least every 12 months to have an eye test as they do not recognise the eye tests here ( stand to be corrected).
