Regular Sight Tests The gift of sight is a precious but fragile gift. There are many
diseases and conditions such as Glaucoma or Diabetes which can seriously
threaten the health of your eyes. The only way to protect your eyesight
is through regular sight tests and check ups from a qualified optician.
It is recommended that you have a sight test every two years. However,
if you suffer from a condition such as Glaucoma or Diabetes you
may need check ups on a more regular basis. If you have any doubts
whatsoever about the health of your eyes you should contact us immediately
for a check up. Contact Lenses Contact lenses are an excellent way to take a break from your glasses for weekends, special occasions or as an alternative to glasses for your vision needs. Daily disposable contact lenses are extremely soft and thin and you won't even know that you are wearing them! You can now get daily disposable contact lenses for as little as £1 a pair. This means that every time you wear them it only costs £1, so if you wear them at weekends it costs £2 a week! Daily disposable contact lenses do not have to be cleaned or disinfected, you get a fresh sterile pair of lenses every time and you throw them away when you are finished with them.
In terms of your eye health, contact lenses are still deemed to
be a 'Medical Device'. You must use them as directed by a qualified
optician to avoid potentially serious damage to your eyes. If you
wear contact lenses, you should have a contact lens check up at
least once a year. If you would like to try contact lenses, please
