Rigid Gas Permeable Contact Lenses

Coleman Opticians


For those who wish to wear Contact Lenses all day, every day, these are often the lens of first choice. They are individually designed and made for you and the widest possible range of prescriptions, fittings and material are available.

The quality of vision is often superior to soft contact lenses and since they  are smaller than soft, are often easier to handle when inserting or removing.

Basic lenses will correct low amounts of astigmatism, but there is also a full range of toric lenses available and bifocal / multifocal lenses can be fitted for those who need extra help with close work.

Rigid lenses are also generally safer than soft lenses with less risk of contact lens related eye problems.

With lenses lasting up to two years and a simple care regime, they can be the least expensive option.

Rigid Gas Pemeable lenses are often as comfortable as soft, but the build-up to all-day wear takes longer (up to two weeks). They are generally unsuitable for intermittent wear and should be worn most days to maintain tolerance. Eye colour changing is not possible, but there is a light sensitive version available that darkens in the sun.
