At Elliott & Heath, we provide professional contact lens fittings and ongoing contact lens care in Chesterfield. Whether you are new to contact lenses or an experienced wearer, our opticians will help you find lenses that suit your prescription, lifestyle and visual needs.
We take a clinical, personalised approach to contact lens fitting, using modern technology and thorough assessments to support long-term comfort and eye health.
Every contact lens fitting at Elliott & Heath includes a comprehensive assessment of your vision and eye health. As part of this process, we carry out a detailed dry eye assessment, as dry eye can significantly affect comfort and contact lens wear.
We also use a corneal topographer to accurately measure the shape of the front surface of the eye. This allows us to achieve more precise contact lens fitting, particularly for patients with higher prescriptions, astigmatism, or those experiencing discomfort with previous lenses.
We fit the latest technology in contact lenses and will recommend the most suitable option for your eyes. These include:
Daily disposable contact lenses
Monthly contact lenses
Toric lenses for astigmatism
Multifocal contact lenses including Extended Depth of Focus
Specialist and custom contact lenses
As an independent practice, we are not limited to a single manufacturer, allowing us to select the most appropriate lenses for each patient.
If you are new to contact lenses, we provide clear instruction and practical support to help you feel confident and comfortable. This includes guidance on lens handling, care and safe wear.
We welcome adults and children who are suitable for contact lens wear and are happy to answer any questions you may have.
Orthokeratology, often known as night lenses, is a specialist contact lens option worn overnight to temporarily reshape the cornea. This allows clear vision during the day without the need for glasses or contact lenses.
Orthokeratology may be suitable for adults and children and is sometimes used as part of myopia management. A full assessment is required to determine suitability, and ongoing monitoring is essential.
We provide specialist contact lenses for patients with complex prescriptions or eye conditions where standard lenses are not suitable. This includes contact lenses for keratoconus and other corneal irregularities.
Using corneal topography and careful clinical assessment, we aim to improve vision, comfort and quality of life for patients who may have struggled with vision using glasses alone.
Regular aftercare appointments are essential for safe and comfortable contact lens wear. Our aftercare includes review of lens fit, vision and eye health, with repeat dry eye assessments where appropriate.
If you experience discomfort, dryness or changes in vision, we can reassess your lenses and adjust your care plan as needed.
As an independent opticians in Chesterfield, Elliott & Heath offers contact lens care guided by clinical judgement rather than sales targets. We focus on accurate fitting, long-term eye health and personalised care.
