Can I wear contact lenses or glasses after vision correction?

You may have concerns about needing to wear contact lenses or glasses after vision correction surgery but don’t worry.

Vision correction surgery is a safe and effective way to improve your vision. You may need to wear glasses in dim lighting conditions or when you’re driving at night. But in most situations, you will be glasses and contact lens free.

With laser eye surgery, you will still need to wear reading glasses when you reach middle age. But with lens replacement surgery, we place an artificial lens inside your eye. This replaces your natural ageing lens and enables your visual freedom. You will not need to wear any types of contact lenses or glasses after lens replacement surgery with us.

Be rest-assured you’re in expert hands. If you’d like to discuss your vision correction queries with us, book an assessment here.
