Attention: We live in the future. Order contact lenses from your wrist with the 1-800 CONTACTS app for Apple Watch

DRAPER, Utah, April 24, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Today, humanity takes a massive step toward reaching our shared dreams of jetpacks, hoverboards, the singularity, and fat-free cronuts: 1-800 CONTACTS announces their new Apple Watch app which allows the reordering of contact lenses in just two taps.

Two taps. New contacts. From your watch. We live in the future.

The app also features LensGauge which helps keep track of how long your lenses have been in and when you need to reorder.

"Since our inception, we've been dedicated to providing our customers with a simple, hassle-free way to order their contact lenses," said Tim Roush, CMO of 1-800 CONTACTS. "The 1-800 CONTACTS app for Apple Watch offers our customers another easy way to track their wear times and easily reorder so they never run out of contacts."  

The 1-800 CONTACTS app for Apple Watch supplements the existing 1-800 CONTACTS app for iPhone, which is currently the top-rated contact lens app in the App Store. It has a five-star rating and is often among the top 10 most downloaded apps in its category.

"Our mobile app enabled us to tremendously simplify the ordering process for our customers," said Justin Olson, Director, Digital Commerce of 1-800 CONTACTS. "We were excited to build upon this success to develop a 1-800 CONTACTS app for Apple Watch."
