Thinking About Contact Lenses?

From sports to style, contact lenses offer freedom and comfort in ways people don’t always expect. At John Laverty Optometrists and Hearing Care, Shannon is one of the friendly experts helping patients in Coleraine and Ballymoney discover just how easy lenses can be.

The First Try

Putting in a contact lens for the first time is a bit like learning to ride a bike.

There might be a few wobbles, a few blinks, and a lot of determination. Then suddenly – success!

The world comes into sharp focus without frames in the way, and you realise: oh, this is good.

John Laverty’s team has been fitting contact lenses for over 40 years, helping children as young as seven and adults of all ages experience the freedom lenses bring.

Why People Love Contact Lenses

• Freedom for sports & activities – no slipping glasses or steamed-up lenses.
• Clear vision whatever the weather – rain isn’t an issue on your glasses.
• Style confidence – wear any sunglasses you like or just enjoy seeing your face without glasses.
• Natural wide vision – no frames or edges in the way, just a clear view all around.

Contact Lenses Today: Comfortable & Clever

Modern contact lenses aren’t like the ones you may have heard about years ago. They’re soft, thin, and made from advanced materials that let oxygen through to keep eyes healthy.

You can choose:

• Daily disposables – a fresh new pair every day, then simply throw away at night.
• Reusable lenses – great value, replaced every two weeks or monthly.
• Special lenses for astigmatism – correcting irregular vision.
• Multifocal lenses – for reading and distance together (goodbye reading glasses!).

Excitingly, researchers are also working on “smart” lenses that could monitor health or adjust focus automatically. The future looks bright – and very clear.

Ready to Give Them a Go?

Trying contact lenses can feel like a big step, but most people wonder why they didn’t do it sooner.

With expert guidance at John Laverty’s, a bit of practice, and the right lenses for your eyes, contact lenses could open up a whole new way of seeing the world.
