| Glasses and Contact Lenses Glasses and contact lenses area readily available in Japan. You may want to bring a copy of your prescription with you, however the optician will most likely test your sight and eye health before prescribing lenses or glasses anyway. Glasses are relatively cheap in Japan and many fashionable styles are available. If you need a new pair, you might want to wait until you get here to buy them. Contact lens solutions, gas-permeable lenses and soft disposable lenses are available but may be more expensive than in your home country. If wearing long-use lenses, you may want to bring a spare pair. Two-weekly and daily disposable lenses are most popular in Japan and readily available. Monthly lenses arenft so easy to find. Japanese customs only allow two monthsf worth of disposable lenses to be sent at a time. |
