Silicon
Hydrogel
The
latest development is a type of soft lens which can safely be kept in the eye continuously
for up to one month. These Silicone Hydrogel
lenses have very high oxygen transmitting
abilities and are proving even more successful
than expected.
Oxygen
is key to keeping the eye healthy and because
of their ability to transmit as much as 99%
of the oxygen in the atmosphere through to
the eye, Silicone Hydrogel lenses have been
shown in studies to be the safest lens whether
they are worn continuously for 30 days or
removed and stored each night like a regular
lens
They
represent the ultimate in soft contact lens convenience and
the monthly charge is from around £26.00.
Our
monthly charges include the cost of the lenses,
full aftercare consultation fees and insurance.
Fees for the initial fitting vary according
to the type of lens and the experience and
requirements of the patient. The amount will
be advised at the first consultation.
