Contact Lenses

Contact lenses are a popular and convenient alternative to glasses. They sit comfortably on the surface of the eye and can correct your vision while giving you freedom to see clearly without frames.

Who are contact lenses good for?

Contact lenses can be suitable for many people, including:

  • Those who don’t like wearing glasses all the time
  • People with active lifestyles or who play sports
  • Anyone who wants clearer side vision without frames
  • Patients with short-sight, long-sight, astigmatism or presbyopia

Most people can wear contact lenses, even if they have never worn them before. Our optometrists will advise whether they are suitable for your eyes and lifestyle.

How can I get contact lenses?

All you need to do is book an appointment and we will help you through the process below, discussing the different options such as daily or monthly lenses. 

  1. Contact lens assessment
    We check the health of your eyes, measure your vision and assess the shape of your eyes to ensure contact lenses are safe and comfortable for you.
  2. Trial lenses
    You’ll be fitted with trial lenses so you can experience how they feel and how well you can see.
  3. Teaching and support
    We show you how to put your lenses in, take them out, and care for them properly. Don’t worry if it feels tricky at first — most people learn quickly.

Aftercare appointments
Regular check-ups ensure your lenses remain comfortable and your eyes stay healthy.

What contact lens choices are available?

There are several types of contact lenses to suit different needs:

  • Daily disposable lenses – worn once and thrown away; convenient and hygienic
  • Monthly lenses – reused for up to a month with proper cleaning
  • Toric lenses – designed for astigmatism
  • Multifocal lenses – help with reading and distance vision
  • Soft lenses – comfortable and easy to adapt to
  • Rigid gas permeable lenses – offer very sharp vision for some prescriptions

We will help you choose the option that best suits your vision, eye health and lifestyle.

Amazing eye doctor! Was on a cruise and broke my eye glasses. They fixed them right away, and were so kind about it. I get to see the rest of my vacation! Thank you! Beautiful city too!

Had eye test done for getting new glasses. both the young ladies that did the tests were very nice and professional without being stuffy. Couldn’t fault the service provided and would highly recommend them. great service.

Turned up out of the blue to see if they could replace a missing bridge pad on a pair of glasses. They replaced both pads in 5 minutes for no charge. Superb. Highly recommended.
