We specialise in contact lenses, which are a large part of our business. We have the experience to advise you on all types, and with the large range of lenses available now many more people can enjoy the freedom of contact lenses than ever before. Contact lenses can be used occasionally for weekend use, special events and for sports or they can be used continuously for a month at a time with our Night & Day contact lenses. Modern lenses are now more affordable and comfortable and allow greater oxygen transfer to the eye so they are also healthier than previous lenses.

But I have an Astigmatism - We also supply and fit toric lenses, which enable people with astigmatism (an irregular shaped eye) to wear lenses, and the materials are thinner and more comfortable than before. They are available in permanent or disposable lenses with or without coloured tints.

I'm interested but I'm not sure if contact lenses are for me - Just ask during your consultation if contact lenses are an option for you. We can discuss your options and explain why contact lenses may or may not be an alternative or a useful addition for you vision correction.Your first full eye consultation is covered by medicare more subsequent consultations for contact lenses are charged a fitting fee and detailed use and cleaning techniques are discussed. Trial lenses are supplied for fitting with no cost to you until it is determined the correct lenses for you. You can take them home and experience just how easy and comfortable they can be. If you decide that they are not for you, there is no charge.If you decide to use contact lenses as your primary eye correction method we strongly urge you to have regular 6–12 monthly eye examinations. If there are any problems in between your contact lens checkups we also advise you to come in for a consultation.

I've worn lenses for years, I don't need check ups, my eyes feel fine - Your eye health is very important, examinations can pick up problems early before you even experience symptoms. Because contact lenses are so easy to wear the major risk for long term contact lens wearers is complacency. With continual wear many people do develop habits such as taking short cuts in their cleaning routine. Incorrect cleaning and handling and storage, use of old lenses or ignoring symptoms of problems can lead to serious damage to your eye. Regular check ups can uncover potential problems before they arise and monitor the health of your eyes.

What are the different lenses available to me?

Soft lenses A very comfortable style of lens that can be permanent (last for between 1-2 years), daily disposable, fortnightly disposable, or monthly disposable. These lenses are very comfortable and easy to adjust to and available to meet a range of requirements including astigmatism and bifocal lenses. A wide range of colours are available for special occasions or daily use.

Continuous Wear These are known as the Night and Day lenses, a new generation of contact lenses that’s material allows greater oxygen transfer to your eyes. These can be used as traditional soft lenses (they can be taken out and cleaned each day) for people wanting the comfort of soft lenses but requiring greater oxygen to their eye or for many people they can be left in for up to one month. This can be a very useful option for people considering laser surgery - these lenses give you virtually the same freedom and much less cost.
