Considering Contact Lenses?

Contact lenses are one of the fastest growing areas in optometry. So if you havn't considered them already, you may soon want to.

Recent advances in contact lenses means that most people can be catered for. Even if you have astigmatism, need bifocals or have previously been unable to wear contact lenses, now may be the time to rethink - or as an existing wearer - try something new.

Earlier types of lenses were made of a rigid plastic and, whilst these are still available, their use has declined. The vast majority of lenses now are soft lenses and most of these are disposable in some way. The advantage of disposable lenses is mainly one of ocular health – the lenses don't have time to deteriorate too much before they are thrown away so crisp comfortable vision right from the outset is normal.

When you come to Walters Opticians for your initial contact lens consultation, our Optometrist will discuss with you your requirements and help select the best contact lens for your optical needs and lifestyle.

Patients who choose Walters Opticians for their contact lenses also benefit from discount of complete spectacles and prescription sunglasses – ask at you nearest Walters Opticians for more information on how we can help you see clearly and save money.
