What should I do when my contact lenses feel uncomfortable?

If your contact lenses feel uncomfortable it is a sign that you need to take action. You may have some dust or dirt on your lens, so if it’s a reusable soft lens or a GP lens take it out and rinse it using the correct contact lens solution. Do not be tempted to rinse the lens in water. Inspect the lens for damage before putting it back in your eye. If the problem persists, contact your optician for advice. Daily disposable contact lenses should always be discarded on removal.

Book your child for an eye test today. Appointments available throughout the summer holiday.

Q: When should my child have their first eye exam?

A: Children should be taken for regular NHS funded eye tests from age 3–4 years every 1-2 years, unless advised otherwise by your optometrist. If parents or carers have any concerns about their child’s eyes before this age, do not delay. Contact your local opticians or speak to your health visitor.
