Contact Lenses: Feel the difference

If you’ve never tried contact lenses before, hearing from someone who has can help you decide if they might be for you.

Simon has been using Bausch + Lomb Ultra One Day contact lenses for a number of years now. This is what he has to say…

What led you to first try contact lenses?

“It was in the wintertime that I would get most frustrated with my glasses. Every time I stepped in the house out of the cold weather, my glasses would steam up.”

And there were other things too:

• Wearing regular glasses for sport and at the gym is difficult. They won’t stay in place and this only becomes worse as you get sweaty.
• A bright and sunny day means taking a second pair of prescription sunglasses everywhere with you.
• Keeping spectacle lenses clean can be a constant battle, with every smudge affecting the quality of your vision.

Why do you prefer contact lenses over glasses?

“Contact lenses are so much more convenient. I prefer them over glasses for their general ease of use. I use dailies, which means I just pop them in first thing in the morning and I’m set for the day.”

Whether Simon is working at a computer monitor, carrying out life tasks or enjoying leisure time, he never has to adjust or change his lenses.

How do the lenses feel in your eye?

“You are barely aware they’re there from the moment you put them in. The first time it seems like a strange idea to stick something in your eye, but that’s what the contact lenses are designed for. They’re really comfortable and feel good for my eyes.”

The Bausch + Lomb Ultra One Day lenses Simon wears are the result of several years of research. They’re made of a next-generation lens material that provides a stable and healthy environment for your eyes and feel great to wear all day long.

Is it difficult to put the contact lenses in and out?

“Gareth fully explained the process and gave me as much time as I needed to learn to put them in. Putting the contact lenses in quite quickly became second nature and it didn’t take long before I could do it without even needing to look in the mirror.”

Gareth and the other Optometrists at Spectacular Opticians take time to make sure you can handle your contact lenses confidently and safely before they let you take a trial pack away. It’s important to learn a good technique, but it’s not difficult and you’ll be able to do it independently within a couple of goes.

Why did you choose the Bausch + Lomb Ultra One Day contact lenses?

“I took advice from Gareth. He suggested them because they’re at a decent price point and are very comfortable to wear all day. I would recommend Bausch + Lomb to anyone to be honest.”

Go beyond comfort

In recent years, there have been terrific advances in contact lens technology making them much more comfortable and easier to wear.

The Bausch + Lomb Ultra One Day contact lenses combine two fantastic breakthrough technologies that work with your tear film. They provide bare comfort for 16 hours and create a healthy environment for your eyes.

Advance MoistureSeal

Made from a silicon hydrogel, these exceptionally smooth contact lenses start with a high moisture level of 55% and retain 96% of this for the whole time you wear them. This means you won’t feel any deterioration in comfort or blurring of your vision as the day goes on.

ComfortFeel

The unique concoction of ingredients in these lenses boosts comfort and supports your eye health. Elements such as moisturisers and electrolytes are released as you wear them, enriching and stabilising your tear film all day long.
