  • WITH LENSES THEY SEE BETTER YOUR BEAUTIFULL EYES

  • GOOD ADVICE : TAKE SOME SPARE LENSES WITH YOU

  • YOU CAN CHANGE BETWEEN LENSES AND GLASSES

SUPERLENSES prevent drop outs (= stopping with lenses)

DROP OUTS ARE FREQUENT
 
6 a 8.5 % of the lenswearers quit yearly. This makes: for every 3 new lenswearers,
2 patients quit. That way the number of lenswearers goes slow, unless we can offer better lenses, superlenses!

THE REASON OF QUITING:
50 %  is caused by  “irritation-problems”: wearing lenses gets less comfortable within time. The important cause of
this is dry eyes. 30 % fall off because of  “manipulation-problems” (cleaning / inserting)
10 % fall off because of visus-problems : dry or dirty lenses give less good vision
10 % fall off because of the price
 
WHO CAN WE HELP AGAIN?
Young patients (= less than 40 years), that are pure myopic and have not long worn lenses yet (less than 5 years),
are easy to adjust again. Every motivated patient can try again !
 
 
HOW?
Many patients want to wear lenses again:
·         Problems with manipulation: day- and nightlenses can be a solution
·         Dyscomfort: when lenses give problems the first month, it can be because of a bad adaptation
  an other lenssize or lenscurvature can do miracles!
When the discomfort comes after a few years: you have to ask yourself some questions: when you take
a new pair of lenses do you have the same problems? or is it only after a few days?
o        When you have discomfort after a few days or weeks you have to consider to change your lenses
faster: daily lenses or 14 daily lenses. You can also change your liquids: modern all in one products
(that hold water better! - such as Complete moisture plus and Solocare aqua) or peroxydesystems
(such as  oxysept, aosept and easysept) .
o        When the lenses give discomfort immediate, you have to consider  superlenses. We have 4 groups
of lenses:
-       The “celmembrane”-lenses, that are build of materials who look very well on our own
celmembrane (such as Proclear or Optiview superior 62 )
-       The “water”- lenses: who almost doesn't dry out:  Bioclear / Actisoft
-       The “oxygen”-lenses, that offer more oxygen to the eye via silicone hydrogel material :
Airoptix , Purevision,
-       The “water and oxygen”- lenses: offer more oxygen and almost don't dry out: Acuvue
Advance, Avaira  en Air optix Aqua: 108 € . Acuvue Oasys and Biofinity hold more water and
let through more oxygen. The price is higher : 117 € for 6 months.
You have to try superlenses, so you can so if your lensproblemes go away. But you can't know wich lens is the best
for your eyes, you have to try some lenstypes first. You can know fast wich type is good for your eyes by putting one
type in the left eye and another type in the right eye, so you can compare!
 
OUR TOPLENSES



 We give lenswearers with problems Acuvue Oasys or Biofinity. Wich one is the best for you, you can only
know by trying them: We will give you both lenses. You will have to decide wich one you think is the best for you.

Some lenswearers notice that their lenses get dirty very quick. It is a good habit to rub your lenses after you took
them out. The company of Acuvue Oasys offers you the possibility to remove the lens after 14 days, for a little extra
price: 20 € /6months.
 
WHAT IF YOU STILL EXPERIENCE DISCOMFORT DESPITE  SUPERLENSES?

-Artificial tears (such as Blink and Blink contacts) can improve the eye comfort, but it is only a temporary solution...

-If you grit one's teeth, you can always try the very solid hard lens! 

-If it doesn't get better with super lenses you can also try daily lenses

-If lenses doesn't succeed at all and you don't wonna wear your glasses anymore you can  consider laser treatment.
This costs 1.500 € for 1 eye and goes for patients with corrections from +2.5 to –10.
