There are many benefits to wearing contacts. First, they give you better all-round vision. When you wear glasses, your field of vision is restricted to the size of the frame and you can see the edges of the frame in your peripheral vision. Contact lenses don’t have that problem, and give you a wider range of vision.
Contact lenses are great for all sorts of situations. When exercising or playing sports, you can do without glasses sliding down your nose or worrying about them getting damaged. By wearing contacts, you have great vision to improve your game with no worries.
By wearing contact lenses, you avoid needing prescription sunglasses or specialist glasses for sport or work. You can save money and forget about the hassle of having to change your specs.
There was a time when contact lenses were only suited to simple prescriptions, but advances in technology mean that today almost anyone can now wear contacts. If you have astigmatism, there are lenses for you. If you think wearing varifocals means you can’t have contact lenses, think again as varifocal lenses are now available and popular.
As well as the usual daily, 2 weekly, and monthly disposable lenses, we can provide more specialist lenses such as hard gas permeable lenses and extended depth of focus (EDOF) lenses. We prescribe only the best quality lenses from top brands Johnson & Johnson, CooperVison, Alcon, and Bausch & Lomb. Find out more about the types of lenses we offer.
