Eye & Contact Lens Factsheets
WE HAVE TWO SLOGANS WHICH WE
TAKE VERY SERIOUSLY.
"Healthy Eyes are Beautiful
Eyes" & "We Sell After Care NOT
Contact Lenses ".
Since we opened our Specialist
Practice in 1973 these have been our bible! We
have over 20,000 patients to testify to the merits
of our Contact Lens Service which is uniquely
different to anything available in the West Midlands
if not the whole of the U.K..
WITHOUT EXAGGERATION THOSE THAT
TAKE THEIR LENSES FOR GRANTED AND DON'T ATTEND
AT LEAST ANNUALLY FOR CHECKS SIMPLY PUT THEIR
EYES AT RISK!
WHETHER YOU WEAR CONTACT LENSES,
GLASSES OR NOTHING, IF YOU NEGLECT YOUR SIGHT
YOU COULD REGRET IT - A FULL SIGHT TEST AND EYE
EXAMINATION SCREENS FOR INTERNAL EYE DISEASE AND
THE SIGNS OF THE MANY GENERAL HEALTH PROBLEMS
OFTEN FIRST SEEN AT THE BACK OF THE EYES.
IT IS THEREFORE NOT ONLY VITAL BUT OUR LEGAL OBLIGATION
TO ADVISE YOU TO HAVE A FULL SIGHT TEST EVERY
2 YEARS!
Note that this 2 yearly Sight Test and Eye Examination
is a completely different procedure to a Contact
Lens After Care check and many patients sensibly
have a Sight Test and Contact Lens check together
once a year!
THE SECRET TO SAFE CONTACT LENS
WEAR IS COMPLIANCE WITH ALL OUR ADVICE, THE USE
OF THE ADVISED CARE PRODUCTS AND, MOST IMPORTANT
OF ALL, A CONTACT LENS AFTER CARE CHECK AT LEAST
ONCE A YEAR.
Lenses can become unsafe because
of fitting changes or lens damage can occur without
the wearers notice. Our checks search for any
potential problems. Many bugs (just like those
that give us flu) can potentially cause problems
if the lenses and front surface of the eye are
not perfect at all times-proper hygiene is therefore
vital. But we sell after care NOT Contact
Lenses which is what Keeps Your Eyes Healthy and
Beautiful.
