At R. A. Glass, we have a wealth of contact lens knowledge to help you find the perfect lenses to suit your lifestyle. Our expert optometrists are committed to offering you the latest in contact lens designs and materials for clearer, more comfortable vision.

Contact lenses are an excellent alternative to wearing glasses. They are perfect for those who have an active lifestyle, play sport, take part in hobbies, or just prefer not to wear their glasses.

Contact lenses provide a full field of unobstructed vision, aren’t affected by fogging up or rain and are extremely convenient to wear.

In addition, modern enhancements in contact lens technology mean they are now suitable for most vision corrections, including short-sightedness, long-sightedness, astigmatism and presbyopia.

As your trusted, local provider of contact lenses we can provide you with a wide variety of options from all the leading manufacturers.

Daily disposable contact lenses are a great choice when it comes to convenience and hygiene, as they are discarded after one day of wear, so there is no need for cleaning and storage. They are also perfect for occasional wear such as social events and sports.

Re-usable fortnightly and monthly contact lenses which require nightly removal, involving cleaning and disinfection, can be a more cost-effective option for those wanting to wear their lenses more often than not.

Toric contact lenses are available which provide clear and stable vision for people with astigmatism. Multifocal contact lenses for those with presbyopia, allowing clear vision at multiple distances.

If you are new to contact lenses, our expert optometrists will carry out a thorough assessment of the surface of your eye and determine your suitability for lenses. During your consultation, we will discuss your vision needs, lifestyle and preferences to ascertain the most suitable type of lens for you.

We will guide you through the fitting process, teaching you how to insert, remove, and care for your contact lenses, ensuring you feel confident and comfortable all the way. You will then be given the opportunity to trial your new contact lenses before returning for a final follow-up appointment to make any necessary adjustments.
