Finally Getting Somewhere! But How To Proceed From Here?

I started here from scratch about 6 months ago, and decided to build a website about contact lenses. Why contact lenses? I knew, even back then that it wasn't the best niche, but it was something I was very knowledgeable about and knew I could write about it.
I built the site www.contactsadvice.com, where I put up articles giving advice about contact lenses to target contact lens wearers, and at the end of every post I direct visitors to a page where I list the lowest price for every major/popular brand of contact lenses (with affiliate links, of course).
Well, I went nowhere fast with this concept. To this day I still haven't gotten a sale, but I am getting somewhere. Out of all the articles I've written, one managed to rank pretty high in Google and started getting lots of hits. It was actually one that I wrote fairly early on. http://contactsadvice.com/converting-your-glasses-... It's a article that attempts to explain how to do a conversion from a glasses prescription to a contact lens prescription.
It turns out this is pretty complicated, and recently I've been getting a lot people writing in to me asking me for help with this. I realize this is an opportunity for me to market to them, but I didn't really anticipate doing it this way, and I'm not sure what the best way to do that would be...
Any suggestions?
