Types of contact lenses we offer

Single Vision Lenses

Find out more

Ideal for those who need correction in only one field of vision, single vision lenses provide precise focus for everyday tasks like reading or driving, delivering a clear and seamless visual experience.

Toric Lenses

Find out more

Toric lenses are specially designed for people with astigmatism, offering clear, stable vision. They can be custom-made to fit your eye shape and prescription, available in both soft and rigid gas-permeable materials for optimal comfort and performance.

Multifocal Lenses

Unlike single vision lenses, multifocal lenses provide clear vision at all distances—near, intermediate, and far. They are an ideal solution for those with presbyopia, offering seamless vision without the need for multiple pairs of glasses.

Contact lens FAQs

How do I know which type of lens is best for me?

At Miltons Eyecare, our expert opticians conduct a thorough vision assessment during your consultation. Based on the results, we recommend the lenses best suited to your vision, lifestyle, and personal needs.

Several factors are considered when determining your ideal lenses, including:

  • How often you wear lenses 
  • Presence of astigmatism or presbyopia 
  • Sensitivity to lens materials 
  • Lifestyle considerations, such as sports or screen use
Can I switch from glasses to contact lenses easily?
