Introduction to Contact Lenses

Contact Lenses can Change your Life

One of the great myths about contact lenses are that they are only suitable for a few people. This could not be further from the truth. Contact lenses are suitable for about 94% of people, offering an excellent addition to your spectacles. We encourage you to give them a try.

Continuous advances in contact lens technology means that almost everyone can enjoy the benefits of contact lens wear. Whether it's full-time wear, or just occasionally for social or sporting activity, there are lenses available to suit you. Modern lenses are comfortable, easy to use and they come in all types of prescriptions, including for astigmatism and varifocal.

We can even offer you the revolutionary Ortho-K contact lenses allowing you to see without specs or contact lenses during the day, by wearing special corrective contact lenses at night - amazing!

Kids in Contacts

We believe that contact lenses ‘aren't just for grown-ups'. Many children benefit from wearing contact lenses, whether for full time use or just for activities such as swimming, rugby, netball or any other sport where spectacles can be inconvenient or troublesome.

Please note - an up to date spectacle prescription is required in order for all patients to have contact lenses fitted. We can advise you on whether your prescription is up to date, but normally it needs to be less than one year old.

We look forward to introducing you to the wonderful world of contact lenses. We also like to make your life easier so have made lenses and solutions available to purchase from our Online Shop.
