Contact Lenses

If you need to improve your sight and find glasses unacceptable or a disadvantage at work or for sport, you may wish to join the growing number of people wearing contact lenses.

Where do I start ?

First, a normal sight test and eye examination is needed for the optometrist to judge whether contacts are suitable for you and whether they will fulfil your expectations and provide realistic benefits. Our optometrists specialise in contact lens fitting and will fully discuss the pros and cons of contact lenses for your individual needs.

Should you wish to proceed, a contact lens examination and trial fitting will be necessary. Free trial periods will be arranged if applicable. No commitment to purchase lenses need be made until this point is reached, only the examination and initial fitting fees are payable.

What is included in the cost?

The price of your lenses will depend on the type of lens, the material it is made of and of course your individual prescription. This can only be quoted for after your initial examination and trial fitting.

All procedures and consultations required to perfect your fitting are included in the original price of the lenses. Specially trained clinical assistants will provide all the tuition and advice required in the use of your lenses, and our optometrists will always be on hand for regular aftercare. A full 12 months professional aftercare service is also included in the price of the lenses.

What is the ongoing commitment?

Contact lenses are delicate in order to safeguard your eyes, and care in handling and a simple daily cleaning regime will prolong their life. If your prescription permits you can choose daily disposable lenses and avoid solutions altogether.

Should you wish to insure your lenses, our 'Contact Lens Replacement Scheme' covers all loss or damage and future prescription changes as often as necessary and for whatever reason. There are no restrictions or special clauses.

The Advantage

We recognise that the cost of good quality solutions is a significant consideration and, to help our patients we provide the advantage of a discount on all solutions purchased from us. Sheinman contact lens patients also enjoy special reductions on any spectacles and sunglasses they require.
