First, let me say that Iceland does have financial problems, but in no way do these problems affect tourists. If anything, it is a benefit for the tourist, as your home currency converts into more ISK now. Second, there is absolutely no need to have ISK in hand before you arrive in Iceland.
Step 3) Knee length. For the knee high compression stocking, measure from the back of the bend of knee to the floor behind your heel. Do not wear shoes as you will get an inaccurate measurement.

How much compression do I need? There is no absolute answer but generally the lowest compression necessary to do the job. If you wear compression stockings to control swelling in the legs, measure your ankles first thing in the morning when they are normal. Measure again at the end of the day when you have noticeable swelling. If there is more than Â½ inch difference by evening, then 20-30 mm/Hg pressure is most likely what you need.
