Eye & Contact Lens Factsheets

A FEW OF THE.MOST IMPORTANT FACTS YOU SHOULD APPRECIATE

· No one leaves our Practice unless their lenses are fitting as we want.

· Contact Lenses don't fit the eye but float on the tear film, which flows across the front of the cornea.

· Tears change - hopefully so your lenses settle down as we intend

· We cannot control YOUR tears and they don't always oblige us by settling in the way we want - we can at least control your lenses.

· Tears vary daily - more in the morning less in the evening! They can change in different room conditions, during the female monthly cycle, because of drug therapy, pregnancy, or sometimes simply for no obvious reasons.

Adaptation is complex and skilled aftercare is vital to achieve our joint goal -
THE FREEDOM AND PLEASURE OF SPECTACLE FREE VISION WITH ALL THE ENJOYMENT AND PLEASURE THAT WEARING CONTACT LENSES BRINGS!

ADAPTATION, WHAT IS IT?

Proper Contact Lens fitting demands precision measurements, sophisticated equipment, considerable time and expertise. As Specialists we use only the most up to date and technologically advanced equipment. The eye is unpredictable so occasionally adaptation is not as smooth as we expect. The initial lenses may need modification or perhaps to be changed to a completely different fit or material - the fact that we fit every quality lens available means we virtually always have lenses for the most complex eye!
