Julie works with contact lens manufacturers to provide education for other eyecare professionals, therefore, you can be confident that you will receive the best contact lens care in Yorkshire.
As a specialised contact lens practice, we provide an extensive selection of contact lenses, including daily and monthly wear options, single vision and multifocal lenses. These can correct various vision issues such as astigmatism, short and long sightedness. We also offer lenses that can improve your vision while you sleep (OrthoK).

Specialised contact lens fittingis a vital service for individuals with complex eye conditions such as keratoconus, irregular corneas, or those seeking non-surgical vision correction methods like ortho-keratology. At Simon Falk Eyecare in Leeds, patients benefit from cutting-edge technology and expertise in fitting a range of specialised lenses, including scleral lenses, ortho-keratology lenses, and customised solutions tailored to individual needs. The clinic is proud to be one of the few practices in Leeds offering advanced diagnostic tools such as Medmont topography and Eaglet Eye scleral topography, making it the go-to destination for complex contact lens fittings in the region.
Ortho-keratology (Ortho-K) is a safe, non-surgical vision correction treatment that involves wearing specially designed rigid gas permeable lenses overnight to gently reshape the cornea. The process temporarily corrects vision so you can enjoy glasses free vision during the day. It has also proven to be a very effective method of myopia management.
The technology used at Simon Falk Eyecare plays a key role in the success of ortho-keratology. By utilising advanced topography systems like Medmont and Eaglet Eye, the clinic can accurately map the shape of the cornea and determine the precise fit for ortho-k lenses.
Scleral lenses are a type of specialised contact lens designed to cover the entire cornea, resting on the white part of the eye (the sclera). These lenses are revolutionary for both vision and comfort with slightly more 'complex eyes' such as those with keratoconus, post surgical corneas or severe dry eyes. Due to their design they are able to offer exceptional comfort, stability, and visual clarity for those who struggle with standard lenses.
"It is unusual to watch any rugby game without seeing at least one player lose a contact lens...
...Now I simply put in the iGO lenses before I go to sleep and take them out when I wake up and there it is - perfect vision.
The lenses are really simple to put in, due to them being very small and rigid, and even easier to take out. Since you sleep in the lenses and your eye ball doesn't move, you don't even notice you have the lenses in.
Like some other iGO users I initially experienced problems at night time from flare around car headlights. However, my iGO optician explained that this was due to me having large pupils and that the problem would be resolved over time by continuing to wear the lenses. iGO lenses have had a massive effect on my career, allowing me to play without worrying about losing a lens and knowing I will have perfect vision for the whole game.”
