Complex Contact Lens Fitting in Kew East

Hi, I’m Melissa.

Astigmatism requires more precise fitting than standard contact lenses.

Our optometrists have experience working with toric and specialised lenses designed to provide stable, consistent vision throughout the day.

We take the time to fine-tune your lenses so they sit correctly and perform the way they’re meant to.

Contact Lenses Designed for Astigmatism
Modern contact lenses for astigmatism (toric lenses) are designed to stay stable on the eye and provide clear, consistent vision.

The key is selecting the right lens and fitting it accurately. With the right approach, many people who previously struggled with contact lenses are able to wear them successfully.

We focus on:

Lens stability and orientation
Comfort throughout the day
Clear vision at all times, not just moments

Tried Contact Lenses Before… But They Didn’t Work?

Many people with astigmatism are told contact lenses “might not work well” for them, or they try them and experience:

  • Blurry or fluctuating vision

  • Lenses that rotate or feel unstable

  • Discomfort after a few hours

In many cases, this isn’t because contact lenses don’t work.

👉 It’s because they weren’t fitted precisely enough.
