Contact Lens Consultations

All of our qualified optometrists can conduct full contact lens fit, teach and aftercare appointments to tailor a contact lens to your prescription and needs. We can offer single vision, astigmatic and multifocal contact lenses to compliment your daily lives. Contact lenses are a great option if you are interested in being spectacle free for holidays, sports or social occasions. 

The Journey

If you a haven’t worn contact lenses before, as long as you have an up-to-date spectacle prescription, we can book you in for a contact lens fit appointment. This is where we check your eyes are suitable for contact lenses and we will place a lens on your eye so you know how it feels. We then teach you how to put them in and take them out safely. Once that is complete, we send you off for a trial period with free of charge trial contact lenses. Once the trial is complete, we see you again for an aftercare appointment to check how you got on with the lenses and that you are happy to continue.
