Are suitable for people who like to swap between wearing spectacles and contacts as there is no wastage. Dailies are also recommended as one of the best contact lenses for dry eyes/ or discomfort issues where the wearer would benefit from a new lens every day. Daily disposable contact lenses are very convenient as they come in their own separate vials for each lens and so you only open them on that day and then throw them away at days end. Daily contact lenses for Astigmatism are available in all brands however only Ciba Vision has a Daily Multifocal contact lens and colored contact lenses in their range.
These prescription contact lenses are suited to people who wear their lenses the majority of the time, as they are more cost effective than the dailies. Fortnightly lenses can be worn for 14 days within a 30 day period. They need to be removed every night and stored correctly in disinfecting solution in-between wears.
Astimatic lenses are often referred to as toric contact lenses. These lenses are often thicker on the sides to accommodate the astigmatic adjustment, they are also weighted which ensures that the axis of the prescription sits correctly in the eye, this sometimes means that they can be blurry when first inserted. Astigmatic contact lenses are available in dailies, fortnightlies and Purevision extended wear contact lenses. Cooper Vision´s range includes astigmatic contact lenses for high prescriptions.
Prescription colored contact lenses and cosmetic contact lenses are one of our most popular products as they enhance the eye colour or change it completely. Although we have a colour guide on our website we would only recommend you select the colours that you have seen on your eyes as your eye base colour can effect the result. Ciba Visions Freshlook Colored contact lenses are available as a two weekly lens or daily lens.
Continuous wear contact lenses such as Purevision or Night and Day contact lenses are marketed on the basis that they can be worn for 30 days continuously without taking them out. However most optometrists would not recommend this, during your fitting for these lenses your optometrist will review how long you can safely wear your contact lens for, if you do want to wear them for an extended period, this advice should be strictly adhered too and a review of the health of your eyes should be accessed every year.
These lenses provide the user with distance and near vision they can take a while to get used to but the benefits abound if you don´t enjoy wearing spectacles! A popular alternative to multifocal contact lenses is mono vision – this is where the optometrist fits one eye for near and one for distance, sounds odd but it works!
