Get contact lenses when your prescription is expired

The thread at the link below offers some tricks that 'may' work to get contact lenses when your doctor's prescription has expired, namely ordering from a well known online retailer such as Coastal Contacts but putting in some busy mall eye store as your doctor's prescription hoping that they won't answer and won't not verify your prescription or by buying from brick in mortar shops in China town or other similar areas where practices may be questionable.  Both of these tactics seem to have very low priority of success and not an option for most people wanting to get their contacts in some type of timely manner.

We provide the thread below to stay objective and provide all possibilities BUT... THE EASIER OPTION with a 99.9% probability of success is to order contact lenses without a current doctor's prescription from the UK but again if you want to try the hard way this thread offers some lessons learned and what not to do if you are interested in the topic...Is there some way to get contact lenses when your prescription is expired
