Contact Lenses

See clearly without your glasses.

When you don’t feel like wearing your glasses.

Experience Contact Lenses

As we live in the modern age of requiring dynamic vision and more active lifestyles, it makes sense that all spectacle wearers have contact lenses for occassional or full time wear. Just as we decide in the morning when we wake up which clothes to wear, which accessories and shoes to match, we too should be able to decide whether we want to wear our glasses, sunglasses or contact lenses for the day.

 

We should afford ourselves the option of glasses or contact lenses everyday depending on our moods.

 

Our eyes, our appearance, our confidence and self-esteem deserve those choices.

 

Contact Lenses come in many varieties and offer an individual with clear vision free from glasses and prescription sunglasses.

 

This liberates a person from being completely reliant on their glasses which can be bulky and cumbersome in certain occupations or activities. Soft contact lenses have evolved to a degree such that a large majority of the population can now enjoy the benefits of contact lenses.

For holidays and occassions.

About Contact Lenses

Contact Lens Technology

Contact lens companies invest tens of millions of dollars collectively each year into research and development to continually improve, develop and innovate the field of contact lenses. The contact lenses of today have high oxygen permeability, allowing oxygenation to the cornea and sclera, thereby improving overall eye health. Soft contact lenses mould to the shape of the eyeball and studies have shown over 90% comfort rating in new contact lens wearers. The lenses are immediately comfortable within 2 - 3 minutes of wear, with many wearers reporting that they can barely feel them on the eyes.

 

Who can wear contact lenses?

Contact lenses can be enjoyed by people of all ages. Contact lenses will correct for myopia (short-sightedness), hyperopia (long-sightedness), astigmatism and presbyopia. Children as young as 8 years old to adults over 90 have been able to comfortably enjoy the benefits of contact lenses. Multifocal lens designs or monovision wearing options are available for those who require progressive glasses.

 

Challenges with contact lens wear

Dusty environments can pose challenges for comfortable and successful contact lens wear. Individuals with dry eyes or with medical conditions or medications than can cause dry eyes may also pose comfort challenges.

 

However, there are many activities where contact lenses are suitable for all manner of physical activities whilst on holiday. As long as there is clean water to wash your hands before inserting and removal your lenses then contact lenses are suitable for activities such as skydiving, snorkelling, scuba diving, jet skiing, skiing, sailing, surfing and simply basking in the sun.

 

Contact lenses are suitable for occupations such as architecture, builders, engineering, accountants, lawyers, professional athletes, entertainers and musicians.

For sports or a more active lifestyle.
