Clear Contacts

About clear lenses

Clear soft contact lenses are the most common type of lens, worn by people of all ages for everyday vision correction. Because they carry no cosmetic tint, the focus is purely on optics and comfort — correcting your prescription while sitting unnoticed on the eye, whether you wear them part-time or every day.

The range of prescriptions

Clear lenses cover the full spread of prescriptions. Spherical lenses correct short- and long-sightedness, toric designs are shaped for astigmatism, and multifocal designs help with presbyopia, the natural change that makes near focus harder with age. Whatever your correction, there’s likely a clear lens designed to suit, in a material and replacement schedule to match.

Brands you’ll find here

This collection brings together familiar names including Acuvue’s Oasys and Moist ranges, Alcon’s Dailies and Air Optix families, and trusted lines from CooperVision and Bausch + Lomb. Each brand offers its own materials and comfort technologies, so if one lens hasn’t felt right in the past, another may suit you better — something your optometrist can help you explore.

Clear or coloured?

Clear lenses are about vision alone, while coloured lenses add a cosmetic tint that can subtly enhance or change your eye colour. Both still correct your prescription where indicated. If you’d like a tint, explore coloured contact lenses instead.

Daily or reusable?

Daily disposables are fresh each day with nothing to clean, which many people find hygienic and convenient for travel and sport. Reusables — fortnightly and monthly lenses — can be more economical for regular wear when cared for properly. Compare daily and monthly contact lenses to find the schedule that fits your routine.

Ordering with your prescription

Contact lenses are a prescribed medical device, so you’ll need a current, valid prescription to order. If yours is due for review, our optometry team can help, and reorders are quick once your details are on file.

Caring for your lenses

For reusable clear lenses, keep them clean and comfortable with a suitable contact lens solution to disinfect and store between wears. Always follow your optometrist’s guidance on wear and replacement, and if your eyes ever feel red, sore or irritated, remove your lenses and seek advice.

First time wearing contacts?

If clear lenses are new to you, a fitting appointment is the place to start. As well as checking your prescription, your optometrist measures the eye and shows you how to insert, remove and care for lenses safely — small skills that make a big difference to comfort and eye health. From there, reordering online is simple. New wearers often begin with daily disposables, since there is no cleaning to learn, before deciding whether a reusable schedule suits their routine and budget better.
