SpecSavers Aspheric Monthly Contact Lenses

For those of you who don't already know, I am blind. Not in the literal sense, because then I most likely wouldn?t be reading and rating your opinions! No, what I mean is that I'm short sighted. I found this out at the age of 12 when I started secondary school, which didn't particularly bother me; in fact the thought of getting glasses excited me, because I thought they were fashionable. It's only when I started getting a few comments about them being nerdy or the odd ?four eyes? getting shouted at me that I began to feel unhappy. I then plagued my dad to let me have contact lenses, but he said I was too young and that I couldn't have them until I was ...  Read the complete review

I have been short sighted ever since I was younger, and it is something I really hate. I wore glasses for years, but because I hated wearing them, I would often walk around during the day, barely being able to see! When I reached 18 I decided it was time to invest in contact lenses, and I have never regretted it since. I have been with Specsavers since I was younger so naturally my choice was to go to Specsavers for my lenses. I discovered that you got a 2 week free trial of the lenses, which was a relief as I wasn't sure if I would like wearing them! I had to book a contact lens assessment, different from an eye test but quite similar in that it involves ...  Read the complete review

Before I was about eleven, I had perfect eyesight. In fact, it was other family members of mine that have had eye problems. But on one fateful visit to the opticians, it was decided that I too, would join 'that' club. From then on, I'd worn glasses day and night (not when I'm sleeping of course, how uncomfortable would that be?) A few friends of mine had started wearing contacts a year or two back, and I was always quite curious, but could never be bothered to do anything about it. A few months ago, a special occasion arose, and very uncharacteristically of me (I rarely make spontaneous decisions, but time was wearing on..) I walked into Specsavers, like ...  Read the complete review

I had always fancied having Contact lenses as I dont really suit glasses and thought this option would be perfect. A contact lense that I could wear and remove when I need to (ie bed) and put them back in when needed but the whole contact lense thing was so much more difficult that i thought. At first i found the contact lense quite unconfy and was if something was scratching my eye, something the options said would go as it was just my eyes ajusting. I listened to this and continuted to wear them. Upon returning to the options they said to me that my eyes were worse that what they should have been and gave me some 2 weekly contact lenses, i had the same problem with ...  Read the complete review

I have been using these lenses via Specsavers 'lens mail' service for approx. ten years now and I have never had any problems with them. The cost is very reasonable, about £30 every quarter which comes out of my bank account. For your £30 you get your contact lenses posted to your door - the package includes 3 sets of contact lenses, 3 bottles of soloution and a plastic 'drum shaped' lens holder. As I dont wear my contacts every day I never run out of soloution, however, if you were a daily wearer I think that the amount of soloution might be a bit tight - I might try this for a month and let you know! The lenses themselves are pretty high quality ...  Read the complete review
