Contact lenses
To suit your lifestyle
With the very latest advances in technology, we are able to offer all our patients the ultimate in contact lens comfort and convenience to suit their lifestyle.
As well as fitting conventional contact lenses we specialise in more complicated or unusual prescriptions including working closely with Frimley Park Hospital Ophthalmic department. We successfully fit contact lenses to corneas with keratoconus, post laser complications, pellucid marginal degeneration and corneal grafts.
We have a corneal topographer to give a precise contour map of the cornea, which shows in detail the precise shape of the surface. We can therefore get a much more accurate and comfortable lens fit.
We can provide a same day service and provide a professional aftercare service.
Contact lenses may be divided into two main groups:
Gas permeable
Among our patients there are those for which gas permeable lenses are more suitable.
The reasons generally being:
High degrees of short or long sight
High astigmatism
Progressive lenses where soft lenses are not suitable
Irregular corneas e.g. Keratoconus
soft lenses
The majority of soft lenses are dispensed either as frequent replacement (monthly or two weekly) or daily disposable. They are soft and pliable, extremely comfortable and have a short adaptation period. They are especially useful for sporting activities.
