What Type of Contact Lens Will Best Suit Me?

Argus Opticians have access to a vast catalogue of the very latest contact lenses. To determine what lens is best suited to you we carry out a detailed consultation so as best to assess your individual needs and determine the ideal lens for you. We can provide all types of lenses including daily and monthly disposable, contact lenses for astigmatism, day & night contact lenses, coloured contact lenses, transition contact lenses and not forgetting our new Misight, myopia control lenses.

How Easy Are Contact Lenses To Get Used To?

At Argus Opticians Donegal Town and Bundoran we have an exemplary record when it comes to teaching you how to manage your contact lenses. Our opticians will personally take you through each step and in most cases our contact lens wearers are fully proficient within the first two weeks but will comfortably be able to wear their lenses by the time they leave the practice.

How Much Do Contact Lenses Cost?

At Argus Opticians Donegal Town and Bundoran we believe we offer some of the most competitive contact lens prices available and have lenses for all budgets. Our best value lenses are priced from as little as €8 per month.

How Old Do You Have To Be Before You Can Wear Contact Lenses?

There is no minimum age for wearing contact lenses. At Argus Opticians we would generally advise that lenses can be worn as soon as a child is competent and motivated as successful contact lens wear depends more on responsibility and attitude than age. Our Misight myopia control lenses are recommended for kids from 6 years of age.
