There are so many different
types of contact lenses available on the market. At City
Opticians we are always up to date with the latest technology
in lens design and being an independent, our optometrists
have access to all the available brands. We can offer you
an unbiased opinion on which lenses are most suitable for
your individual needs. Whether you want them for everyday
wear or just occasionally for sports or social events,
we will find the contact lenses that give you ultimate
comfort and vision.
Our care does not stop the moment you walk
out the door. As a contact lens wearer regular aftercare
is required to guarantee your eyes are always healthy.
Even if your lenses feel comfortable, problems can occur
without your knowledge which may affect your ability to
wear lenses in the future. We pride ourselves in ensuring
the necessary checks are always carried out.
If you are an existing contact lens wearer
and have a current prescription, you can order your replacement
contact lenses over the internet by completing the form
on the contact
page. Lenses can be collected from the practice, or
for a small fee be delivered to your address by courier
or post.
Daily Disposables
One of the most popular lenses available
on the market today is daily disposables. They take the
hassle away from contact lens wear and are ideal for
people with active lifestyles, or for the occasional
wearer. These lenses are designed to be worn for a day
and then thrown away. There is no cleaning and no storage,
hence, no bother. We hold large stocks of Acuvue 1Day,
Focus Dailies and Soflens 1Day contact lenses on the
premises. They are available at competitive prices and
can be collected, posted or biked to your work, whichever
is more convenient!
Fortnightly and Monthly Soft Contact Lenses
For those worried about the pennies, we
supply fortnightly and monthly replacement soft contact
lenses that are more cost effective and are better suited
for complicated prescriptions. It is important to remember
that these types of lenses require regular cleaning,
but with the progression of solution technology this
routine is often quick and effortless.
High Oxygenating Lenses
Today’s lifestyles demand high oxygenating
lenses. Johnson&Johnson and Ciba Vision have introduced
a new category of contact lens. The moisture rich elements
in Acuvue Advance with Hydraclear and the O2 Optix lenses
deliver more oxygen to the eye, keeping the eyes looking
whiter and fresher, are more resistant to drying out,
therefore providing longer lasting comfort.
Bifocal and multifocal contact lenses
People that require both distance and
reading prescriptions can now be fitted with bifocal
and multifocal contact lenses. We can also correct your
astigmatism with toric lenses, giving you freedom from
your spectacles. These lens types are all available as
daily, fortnightly and monthly replacement.
Soft coloured contact lenses
Soft coloured contact lenses are the latest
in fun and fashion and are available in a range of stunning
colours so you can change your look or make an impact,
whether you need corrective lenses or not!
Continuous wear lenses (30
Days)
The idea of waking up and seeing perfectly
24hours a day is what most people with sight correction
would love to have. At City Opticians we can fit you
with contact lenses made of a revolutionary new material
called silicone hydrogel which allows 6 times more oxygen
to pass through to your eye than a standard lens. These
are safe for you to wear for up to 30 days and nights,
even while you are sleeping. Continuous wear lenses are
ideal for people that don’t want the hassle of
inserting and removing their lenses.
