Usually if it's your first time wearing contacts, or if your doctor is switching you to a different brand, you receive a trial pair of your prescription to try for about a week. After trying them out, you have to go back for a follow up visit so your doctor can check your eyes with the contacts to make sure everything looks okay. After you get the OK you can order a supply. Sometimes a trial pair of your lenses has to be ordered, so it may take a little longer. But every office is different, and some don't work this way. But you will most likely have to try them first before you order a complete supply.

If your prescription is in stock you should leave with them. Make sure that they know that you want contacts, so that they schedule time to do a fitting(different than fitting glasses) have a tech show you how to insert/removal and cleaning and storing. I assume you have never worn contacts, so just dont get frustrated. Keep with it. You should only wear them for a little while every day, and increase it slowly. Just remember to wash your hands before you remove and insert.
Good luck.

Usually, yes. Sometimes, they may not have your Rx in stock, so it might take a couple days to get them in.
