Contact Lens Fitting
Contact lenses offer freedom from glasses, giving you a clear field of vision and letting your natural features take centre stage.
Whether you’re playing sports or enjoying a night out partying, they can transform how you see and how others see you.
At Broomfield Opticians, we specialise in finding the ideal contact lenses for you. We’ll make sure they are comfortable and suitable for both your eyes and visual needs.
Why choose contact lenses?
While glasses can be practical and a great wardrobe accessory, there’s no denying contact lenses offer numerous benefits that specs simply can’t match.
They include:
- unrestricted vision without frames in your field of view
- natural appearance with no change to your appearance
- freedom for active lifestyles without the worry of glasses slipping or breaking
- no fogging up in cold weather or rain
- compatibility with sunglasses – any style, not just prescription ones
- enhanced peripheral vision for sports and driving
