Services

When you get contact lenses on medical referral, you will not have to pay the full amount of the lenses yourself. Visser + Ophtalmo offers you the option of choose for the third-party payment scheme. This means that Visser + Ophtalmo will provide you with all the necessary documents for you to sign so that Visser + Ophtalmo can take up payment directly with your health insurer. That way you're only required to pay the amount above the reimbursement of the RIZIV. The RIZIV applies different reimbursements depending on the type of contact lens. Our optometrists will discuss in detail which type of contact lens would be your best solution, so it will always be clear what costs would be involved.

New fitting

€ 159,00

During the first appointment, the optometrist examines which type of lens would be best for you. All measurements and examinations take place after which the lenses can be ordered. Once the lenses have been delivered, an appointment can be scheduled where the lenses are tried on for the first time and the fit and power can be checked. This is followed by instructions on how to use, insert and remove the lenses. After wearing the lenses for a few weeks, you will be invited for another check-up. We will check how the wearing of the lenses is going, whether comfort and vision are good and whether there are any issues you encounter.

Readjustment

€ 99,00

When the lenses need replacement, or if you have been wearing lenses for several years, we can schedule a readjustment for you. All measurements and examinations are taken after which new lenses are ordered. As soon as the lenses are delivered, we schedule an appointment with you to come and try them. At this time, we check the fit and power so that you can confidently wear the lenses. If you wish, an additional check-up can be scheduled after a few weeks.

Check-up

€ 40,00

Periodic checks take place every 6 months. During this check-up, the front segment of the eye as well as the fit and strength of the lenses are checked. If the lenses need replacement, new lenses can be ordered. Checks where contact lenses are ordered are not charged.

Instructions

During the instruction, you will be taught how to insert and remove lenses. You will also receive detailed information on the use and maintenance of the contact lenses.

Our way of working

When you come to Visser + Ophtalmo for your first consultation, a comprehensive intake will take place. During this first appointment, our optometrist will determine whether you are suitable to wear lenses and which lenses will suit you best. All necessary measurements and preliminary examinations as part of a contact lens journey are taken.


Visser + Ophtalmo will then order lenses for you and immediately schedule a second appointment. During this second appointment, the optometrist fits the lenses to your eyes for the first time and checks the fit and strength. If everything is as it should be, a Visser + Ophtalmo practice assistant will teach you how to insert and remove the lenses yourself. You will also receive detailed information on the use and maintenance of the lenses.

A check-up appointment is planned some two weeks later to evaluate how wearing the lenses is going and whether comfort and vision are to your liking. Visser + Ophtalmo provides sufficient time so that potential problems can be discussed. For optimal eye health and lens performance, we recommend periodic checkups, usually every six months.


During these checks, the optometrist assesses the health of your eyes, the fit and strength of the lenses and whether the lenses need replacement. If the optometrist sees any abnormalities in your eyes during the first appointment, you will be referred back to your treating ophthalmologist.
