Frequently Asked Questions:
What is the difference between soft contacts and Rigid Gas Permeable (RGP) lenses?
Soft contact lenses are made from flexible, breathable materials that conform to the shape of your eye, offering immediate comfort and ease of use. They are typically available as daily, weekly, or monthly disposables. RGP lenses, on the other hand, are made from a firmer material that retains its shape on the eye.
While they may take longer to adjust to, RGP lenses provide sharper vision, especially for individuals with astigmatism or irregular corneas, and are more durable than soft lenses.
Aren't contact lenses difficult to insert and remove?
Inserting and removing contact lenses can seem challenging at first, but with proper instruction and a little practice, it becomes routine. During your fitting at Martin’s Eyecare, our optometrists will guide you through the process step-by-step, ensuring you feel confident and comfortable handling your lenses. We’ll provide tips and techniques to make it as easy as possible.
What's the difference between daily disposable lenses and extended wear lenses?
Daily disposable lenses are designed for single-use and are discarded at the end of each day, offering the highest level of convenience and hygiene. Extended wear lenses, on the other hand, are made from breathable materials that allow you to wear them continuously for up to a week or even longer, depending on your optometrist’s recommendation. Extended wear lenses are ideal for those who prefer not to remove their lenses every night.
Can I choose coloured contact lenses?
Yes, coloured contact lenses are available and can be a fun way to change or enhance your eye color, whether you need vision correction or not. At Martin’s Eyecare, we offer a range of coloured lenses, including options that correct vision while providing a new look. During your consultation, we can help you choose the right colour and type of lens that suits your style and needs.
