The most appropriate lenses
- Daily Disposable lenses are healthy and hygienic and provide the wearer with a fresh, clear lens without the need for cleaning. They are suitable for occasional wearers who wish to replace their spectacles when playing sport.
- Reusable lenses are for extended daily wear and need to be cleaned and stored in a lens case overnight or until you next wear them. Some lenses can also be worn during sleep. Reusable lenses need to be replaced every 2-4 weeks with a new set.
- A common condition that affects adults and children that is caused by the shape of your eye. Depending on the extent of the condition, it can cause blurred or distorted vision at all distances. Contact lenses for astigmatism are specially made to match the shape of your eyes and are available in daily and reusable types.
- A condition that is caused by the lens of your eyes becoming less flexible. This makes it more difficult to adjust your focus from near to far objects. Multifocal contact lenses are designed to counteract this by allowing you to see in sharp focus – near and far.
