eyesonline.com.au- Welcome

November 28th 2009

Welcome to my first blog entry for the Eyesonline website.

May I just start by saying how much I am enjoying the challenge of developing an internationally accepted, truly Australian owned and operated web site for the re-supply of contact lenses to the Australian market at affordable prices. I appreciate all your kind words of support that we receive on a daily basis and the constructive critisism that sometimes goes along with that. We are dedicated to continuing to build a world class contact lens website with the widest range of contact lenses and bring you the best of service in this competitive market. We welcome competition and have noted that lately, there seems to be an influx of overseas companies with websites masquerading as Ausralian websites. (even to the point of having cute little Australian flags on their sites). We remain determined to compete on price with these companies for your business. One thing they cannot compete with is our delivery times and delivery charges. All our orders are dispatched as soon as possible by Express Post (Australia Post). This works quite well in the majority of cases but sometimes the little Australia Post gremlins can cause the occasional delay. If ever you feel you have been waiting a little too long for your order, we are happy to hear from you so that we can help and chase things up.

In recent times we have had some supply difficulties with the Johnson and Johnson Acuvue 2 brand of lens as it is in the process of being phased out. Even Johnson and Johnson Australia are running short of stock at times. Always remember to order ahead in good time and please, try not to order a new supply of contact lenses two or three days before you go overseas as this can be testing Murphy's Law. Now could be a good time to upgrade the contact lenses you are wearing to a new silicone hydrogel material such as Johnson and Johnson's Oasys, Ciba's O2 Optix, Bausch and Lomb's Purevision or Cooper Vision's Aviara. All of these lenses will give you much increased oxygen transmission to the cornea and as a contact lens practitioner, it is generally noted that there just isn't the increase in size of limbal blood vessels that we have all been prepared to accept in the past.

That's all for this entry. Please keep well and safe during the holiday season. I'm off to read my favourite blog at the moment. Jessica Watson - attempting to be the youngest person to sail around the world unassisted. Gotta love those cup cakes she made!
