Gas Permeable Contact Lenses 'RGP's

Gas permeable contact lenses are rigid plastic lenses that transmit oxygen. Because they retain their shape on the eye, they mask some corneal irregularities and astigmatism and tend to provide sharper vision than soft contact lenses. Rigid gas permeable lenses do however require a period of adaptation, as they are not instantly comfortable on initial insertion. The optometrists at The Big Optician are very skilled and experienced at fitting all types of contact lenses including RGP's.
