CONTACT LENS PRACTICE
Our three specialist practitioners offer over 90 years of optical experience. The Contact Lens Practice was first established in 1973 and was the first practice in the UK that was devoted to fitting contact lenses.
Since the practice began it has always had strong connections with lens manufacturers. In 1974 The Contact Lens Practice was one of ten practices in the world to clinically trial the very first soft sleep in lens (Permalens) for the US Food & Drug Administration.
Over the years The Contact Lens Practice has fitted some of the most complex and complicated prescriptions. If you have ever been told that you are unsuitable for contact lenses chances are that we have a lens that's right for you.
The Ocular Coherence Tomographer (3D-OCT) allows us to see deep inside the RETINA impossible with an Ophthalmoscope or even with a retinal camera. As a result we are now regularly discovering sight threatening diseases and general health problems such as Diabetes whilst they are still TOTALLY invisible with conventional methods.
The importance of a regular annual SCAN cannot be emphasised enough. The microscopic changes under the retina (invisible with an Ophthalmoscope or Camera) is why a SCAN can save your sight!
3D OCT Scans provide early diagnosis of many sight threatening conditions including:
- Wet & Dry Age Related Macular Degeneration
- Retinal Detachments
- Vitreous Detachments
- Macula Tears & Holes
- Macular Oedema
- Hypertension
- Glaucoma
- Diabetes
- Floaters
- Drusen
- Retinopathy
Early detection and treatment of some of these can mean the difference between future blindness and being able to see for the rest of your life!
