FAQ

For adults without complaints, once every two years is enough. We recommend a yearly review for those wearing a prescription, over the age of forty, or living with conditions such as diabetes.

If the pupil has been dilated, near vision stays blurred and light sensitivity increases for a few hours. We advise not driving that day and bringing sunglasses with you.

Those with insufficient corneal thickness, whose prescription has not settled over the past year, with progressing keratoconus, or with certain ocular surface conditions. The decision follows the preliminary assessment.

No. Sleeping in daily wear lenses reduces the oxygen reaching the cornea and markedly raises the risk of infection. Only lenses made for that purpose may be used, with clinical approval.
