Contact Lenses
Advances in contact lens technology now means that there is a contact lens suitable for the vast majority of vision needs regardless of age or prescription. Contact lenses bring far more flexibility and freedom compared to glasses. They move with your eye and the correction is closer to your eye giving you a more natural field of vision. They don’t steam up in the kitchen or get smeared on a rainy day and they don’t fall off when you are running.
Daily Lenses
Daily lenses are ideal for occasional use and for holidays when solutions can be tricky to carry. Use a fresh pair every day; use them once and then throw away.
Monthly Lenses
This is the most flexible way to use contact lenses. A fresh pair of lenses every month; wear them when you want to and then just clean and disinfect in modern simple solutions overnight and they’re fresh and ready to wear again the next day!
Extended Wear Lenses
Extended wear lenses can be worn for up to 30 days and nights without being removed! Ideal for those times when carrying solutions around is impractical.
Toric Lenses
Toric lenses are designed especially for people with astigmatism and are now available in monthly and daily wear lenses
Progressive Lenses
Designed for people who need a different correction for distance and near vision, progressive lenses allow you to see both distance and reading without the need for glasses over you contact lenses.
