Why not try contact lenses?
At The Hammond Optical Practice, we offer contact lens care for patients of all ages and prescriptions, whether you are completely new to lenses or have been wearing them for years.
Our contact lens appointments are carried out by Mark and Eimer Hammond, giving you the reassurance of experienced, consistent care every time you visit. We take the time to understand your lifestyle, vision needs and eye health, so we can recommend lenses that are comfortable, safe and suited to you.


A personal approach to contact lens care
We don’t believe in one-size-fits-all solutions. During your appointment, we carefully assess your eyes, discuss how and when you plan to wear your lenses, and explain the options in clear, everyday language.
We offer a wide range of contact lenses, including:
Daily, fortnightly and monthly lenses
Lenses for astigmatism
Multifocal lenses for reading and distance vision
Specialist lenses for more complex prescriptions
Your eye health is always our priority, and we ensure lenses fit properly and are suitable for long-term wear.
Myopia management for children and young people
We also offer specialist contact lenses for myopia (short-sightedness) management, helping to slow the progression of myopia in children and young adults.
Using advanced lens technology from CooperVision, these lenses are designed to correct vision while supporting healthier eye development over time. Early management can make a real difference to long-term eye health, and we will always take time to explain whether this option may be suitable for your child.

Ongoing care and peace of mind
Wearing contact lenses safely requires regular check-ups. We provide ongoing aftercare appointments to ensure your lenses remain comfortable, your vision is clear and your eyes stay healthy.
We are always happy to answer questions, adjust your lenses if needed, and offer advice on caring for your eyes between visits.

What our patients say
We are proud of the kind feedback our patients leave and the trust they place in us. Many new patients come to us through recommendations, and we believe this reflects our commitment to personal, high-quality care.
