 | Thanks to new designs and material,
modern contact lenses are very affordable and comfortable. These days they
usually cost no more than a pair of glasses and you will soon forget you are
even wearing them. |
| Contact lenses give you the freedom
to see - and be seen - without spectacles. They offer you excellent all
round vision and don't hide your eyes like glasses sometimes do. In fact
many people feel they look more natural wearing contact lenses. |
| Furthermore they do not slide down
your nose, mist up or get in the way when you play sports. And the latest
daily disposable lenses are even more convenient for today's busy lifestyles. |
| Our practice has a wide
range of soft and gas permeable lenses. Although not everyone is
suitable to wear contact lenses, we are likely to have a design that is right
for your eyes, lifestyle and budget. |
| The choice includes disposable
lenses which you simply throw away after they have been worn once. These
are very convenient as you do not needs special lens care solutions to clean and
store them. They are also ideal for sports and occasional wear when
glasses are not appropriate. |
| We offer contact lenses for people
with astigmatism (an
irregular shaped eye) and presbyopia
(which requires both reading and distance vision correction). |
| Regular replacement of contact
lenses is necessary to maintain comfortable wear, good vision and healthy eyes.
How often you should do this depends on a combination of factors, particularly
your eyes and the material of the lens. It is important to visit our
contact lens practitioner for regular check-ups and to replace your lenses at
the recommended time. These days most people wear daily or monthly
disposable soft lenses. |
| Unless you wear daily disposables,
it is essential to clean and disinfect your contact lenses every day to ensure
clear vision and healthy eyes. There are now many different lens
care solutions available and the best one for you will depend on your lens
type, the replacement frequency and your eyes themselves. Our staff will
give you all the advice you need on looking after your lenses and can provide
you with the most suitable solutions. |
