Contact Lenses

We fit an extensive range of contact lenses from the World’s leading manufacturers (see images below) using the latest technology and materials making contact lenses safe, comfortable and easy to wear. The range features different lens types to suit most prescriptions i.e. Short-sight, long-sight, astigmatism and presbyopia.

You will be required to come in wearing your contact lenses. The optometrist will examine your eyes first with your contact lenses in your eyes and then on removal of your contact lenses. A fluorescent dye will be used to check for any adverse effects and in order that your contact lenses do not take up the dye we recommend you leave the contact lenses out for at least half an hour.

The suitability of your contact lenses will then need to be re-assessed a few months later to ensure that prolonged wearing is not having any adverse effects. Often these adverse effects are picked up before you might show any signs or symptoms so it is very essential that these appointments are kept. Your eyes will be closely monitored to prevent any long terms effects of contact lens wear over the rest of the year.

You can pay for your lenses by monthly direct debit to spread the cost or you can just buy lenses in- store as and when you need them. We also offer a range of eye-care packages in store according to the type of lenses you wear. Please note that it is only when your eye-care professional is satisfied that your handling and wearing schedules are not having any adverse effects on your eyes that we can provide you with your prescription typically at three month stage. The validity of your prescription may vary according to the health of your eye.
