Contact Lenses at Lais Opticians – East London’s Trusted Specialists

At Lais Opticians, we offer expert contact lens fitting and aftercare in Manor Park and Woodford Bridge, helping you see clearly, comfortably, and confidently — whether you’re a first-time wearer or a seasoned user.

With over 25 years of experience, we are one of East London’s leading independent opticians, trusted for our expertise, personal care, and access to the entire UK contact lens market — including all major brands and custom lens options.

What Are Contact Lenses?

Contact lenses are thin, curved lenses worn directly on the surface of your eyes to correct refractive errors such as short-sightedness (myopia), long-sightedness (hyperopia), astigmatism, and presbyopia. They offer a convenient and often invisible alternative to glasses, ideal for:

  • Sports and active lifestyles

  • Cosmetic or aesthetic preference

  • Situations where glasses may not be practical

At Lais Opticians, we fit all types of lenses including soft disposable lenses, rigid gas permeable (RGP) lenses, toric lenses for astigmatism, and multifocal contact lenses for reading and distance.

The Contact Lens Fitting Process at Lais Opticians

Our full-service contact lens process is designed to prioritise comfort, clarity, and long-term eye health:

  1. Contact Lens Assessment – We begin with a thorough eye exam and corneal measurement to determine the right lens type for your needs.

  2. Personalised Recommendations – As an independent practice, we’re not limited to one supplier. You’ll receive tailored suggestions based on your eye shape, lifestyle, and budget.

  3. Lens Trial and Teach – You’ll be taught how to insert, remove, and clean your lenses safely and confidently.

  4. Follow-Up and Aftercare – We monitor your comfort and vision through check-ups and adjustments as needed.

Whether it’s your first time or you're returning for a refit, we provide guidance and support at every stage.

  • Acuvue, Air Optix, Dailies, Biofinity, and more

  • Coloured contact lenses

  • Custom-fit lenses including hard and gas permeable types
