Contact Lenses

We fit all types of contact lenses – hard / gas permeable, soft, disposable, to correct astigmatism (toric) and multifocal. We also do refits – to allow for change in vision, or to find a more suitable or comfortable option.

A contact lens fitting requires an eye examination and then some extra measurements. Trial contact lenses are usually used, to demonstrate how the contact lenses function and feel, and to determine the best choice of contact lens. We then teach you how to handle the lenses, how to put them on your eye and how to remove them. It can take a bit of practice at first, but most people cope much better than they expected. With disposable contact lenses we can often give lenses to be taken home and trialled, before ordering a supply.

Come in and see us for a personal assessment of the type of lens that would suit you best.
