Aftercare
Regular contact lens checks are vital to ensure your contact lenses remain comfortable and your eyes stay healthy.
1-2 week check
After one-two weeks you'll need to come back for a routine check, to see how you're getting on with your new lenses. We'll check the fit and discuss with you how they feel and, if they're not quite right, suggest alternatives to try. There will be plenty of opportunity to get answers to any questions you may have thought of.
3 month check
You'll also have a check after three months, so we can monitor the health of your eyes. This appointment includes:
- Discussion (to see how you're getting on with your lenses and your wearing regime)
- Vision check
- Check of the fit of your lenses
- Assessment of the health of your eyes
- Suggestion of adjustments or improvements, if necessary
At any visit we will happily let you try alternative types of Contact Lenses.
At D&A, aftercare is unlimited for our Contact Lenses By Post and Contact Lens Care Scheme members, so feel free to pop in at any other time for further advice, or if you're having any difficulty with your lenses.
Our Contact Lens Care Scheme is ideal for wearers of hard (RGP) lenses who don't need a regular supply of new lenses. Join the scheme and you'll receive unlimited aftercare, plus great discounts on glasses, solutions and replacement contact lenses.
Routine check
As long as you're having no problems and are happy with your contact lenses, we'll usually ask you to come and see us again in about a year's time. We can then monitor the health of your eyes and make sure the contact lenses you are using are still the best ones for you.
A regular check-up is also necessary for you to continue receiving your CLBP supply without interruption. New Government legislation means that you must have a valid contact lens specification in order to receive your lenses. Because your eyes can change, your specification expires after 12 months. A simple check-up, once a year, will ensure you always have a valid specification, so we can carry on sending your contact lenses direct to your door.
We understand your life may be busy, and we know it's not easy to remember appointments that only happen once or twice a year. So, when your next check-up is due we'll send you regular reminders to ensure you don't forget.
