Contact Lenses
Contact Lens Information
Everyone chooses to wear contact lenses for many different reasons. For some, contact lenses
 replace their spectacles for everyday wear, while others enjoy the flexibility of wearing 
contact lenses sometimes, e.g. for sports, socially or on holiday.
Benefits of wearing Contact Lenses

Throughout the years there have been great improvements in the contact lens designs. With the development of new contact lens materials we are improving the fit and comfort of contact lenses. With the advent of daily disposable, astigmatic and multifocal contact lenses, there are now lenses to suit almost every wearer whether it is disposable, re-usable or a specially designed bespoke lens. Some of the pros are:
• Comfort
• Easy to use
• Improved confidence
• Convenient for daily wear, occasional wear or even overnight
• Freedom from spectacles
• Cosmetically attractive
• All round field of view
• Safe for sports
• Don't steam up
• Wear in the rain
 
Thinking about wearing contact lenses for the first time?
The first step is to find out about the type of lens that may be suitable for you. 
This depends on many factors including:

• Your prescription
• How often you want to wear your lenses
• Your occupation and work environment
• Your tear film and eye sensitivity
 
First of all, we’ll do a full eye examination to find your prescription and to check that your eyes are healthy, followed by a specific contact lens fitting. During the fitting, you will wear diagnostic contact lenses to check your suitability for contact lens wear. Further checks of your eyes and tear film help to assess the most suitable type of lens for your personal needs.
 
At Care Optics, you are not committed to purchase lenses at your initial visit - if you decide lenses are not for you, you will simply pay for your eye examination and the initial fitting fee. However, if you get on well at the initial fitting, we will teach you how to handle and care for the contacts, so that you can take some home to try. After a follow-up appointment, a few days later, we can then go ahead and order lenses for you.
How much will my lenses cost?
The cost of your lenses depends on which type better fits your lifestyle. Whether you want to
 wear your lenses every day or just for sports, we have the right lenses for you.
 
As an independent practitioner, we can source our lenses from all manufacturers. You choose whether you want to 
buy lenses only or as part of our Direct Debit Scheme with full professional cover, a monthly direct debit payment. 
 
Most patients choose our Direct Debit Scheme with full professional cover because it spreads the cost, includes all your contact lens
check-ups, retinal photography and free replacement lenses if damaged. You also get great discounts on spectacles and sunglasses.
 
Please call or email us with your details and we can quote you for lenses only or supply with full professional cover.
