Contact lens assessments
Contact lenses come in many different types that need to be carefully selected for each patient. To find the right lenses for you, it is necessary to have an assessment. This includes a check of your eye health and prescription to ensure your eyes are suitable for contact lenses and to determine which option is best for you. The optometrist will also ask you some questions to help them advise you about which types of contact lenses will best suit your lifestyle.
The different types of contact lenses
Contact lens types include soft disposables in daily and monthly varieties, rigid gas-permeable lenses and specialist lenses for different kinds of vision. Most people use soft disposable lenses because of their ease of use and effectiveness. For people with conditions like astigmatism or myopia, however, rigid gas-permeable lenses may be more appropriate. The lenses that will work best for you will depend on your prescription, eye type and lifestyle. With expert advice and a detailed assessment, we will make sure your contact lenses suit you perfectly.
Aftercare and advice
Taking care of your lenses properly is essential for your eye health. This is why aftercare is a necessary part of wearing lenses. With a check-up of your vision with and without lenses and an examination of the surface of your eyes, we help to safeguard your eye health. If necessary, we will advise you on any changes that need to be made to make sure you can keep using contact lenses safely.

I recently moved into the D7 area. I decided to try Barrett Opticians and I'm glad to say that they were fantastic. They were all very friendly and professional. Margaret got to the root of an ongoing issue with my existing lenses and my new upgraded lenses are spot on!
