Welcome to My Practice

Specialist Contact Lens Practice.
My name is Paul Toleman and I have been the optometrist for the Holmes Chapel community since 1981.
I specialise in complex contact lens fitting for conditions such as Keratoconus and post Corneal grafts. I have over 35 years experience in caring for and providing complex contact lenses to hospital patients. I now provide this service privately at my practice in Holmes Chapel Health Centre and at Cheshire Consulting Centre in Crewe.

My Experience
I obtained a degree in Ophthalmic Optics in 1977, became a Fellow of the College of Optometry in 1978 and commenced working as assistant to the famous contact lens specialist A.G.Sabell at Birmingham Midland Eye Hospital where my initial interest in complex contact lenses began.
I opened my own practice in Holmes Chapel in 1981 providing general Optometric care and advice in addition to fitting specialist Contact Lenses for the patients of Leighton Hospital and Macclesfield General Hospital. I am a Member of the BCLA (British Contact Lens Association) and supporter of the Keratoconus Group

Typical Conditions we treat

Keratoconus
A debilitating visual disorder, caused by progressive distortion of the front surface of the eye (Cornea ). Spectacle lenses cannot correct the induced distortion satisfactorily. However, relief is at hand. With a well-fitted Contact Lens we can achieve amazing results . Comfort and quality vision is our standard.

After Corneal Grafts (Keratoplasty)
Corneal grafts are used to replace damaged and diseased corneas. After the surgery, the new cornea may have some distortion creating similar visual problems to Keratoconus. However with our range of advanced, specially designed Contact Lenses we can comfortably restore your vision.

Cosmetic Lenses used after Eye Trauma
When the eye is damaged by accident or seriously affected by complex ocular surgery using our specialist lenses we can restore the eyes appearance and vision simultaneously, often achieving outstanding results
We use the latest in Contact Lens Designs
Innovations in the Optical World
We pride ourselves on using the latest lens designs and technology.
All our Specialist lenses are bespoke, made with accuracy and precision to fit the cornea comfortably.

Quasar K
Often the lens of first choice, ideal for treating mild to moderate cases of Keratoconus

Comfort 15
Ideal for moderate to severe Keratonic cases. Made from advanced gas permeable materials it's very comfortable and provides outstanding visual performance. Available in single vision and multifocal forms to help our patients who also need reading glasses

Dynacone Z
A lens that has satisfied some of my most advanced Keratoconic patients

Printed Cosmetic Lenses
In the case of eye trauma, we can provide gas permeable contact lenses printed in Switzerland with eye design (taken by special imaging) of the opposite eye in order to generate a near perfect match for the injured eye.

What our patients are saying
Extrarordinary care, amazing service, very professional and lovely friendly staff.
I have no hesitation in recommending this optician; they proved to be most professional, courteous, genuinely nice person to be providing me with excellent care and attention over many years.
I recommend with every confidence.
I was diagnosed with Keratoconus when I was 22, I was referred to Macclesfield Hospital for tests and eventually referred to the Toleman practice to have contact lenses fitted.
I am 37 now and still under optician's care.
I cannot thank him enough throughout the years. The optician's professionalism and knowledge is exceptional and second to none.
At the moment I wear RGP lenses, which are not the easiest or most comfortable of lenses to get used to, the optician will make sure that they're the right fit and of course makes sure i can see!
He will always give advice along the way in getting the clearest vision and most comfortable fit from my lenses.
If I ever have a problem, no matter how big or small, it is not a problem, they will always try and help either over the phone or make me an appointment if necessary.
If it wasn't for everyone at the practice I would probably still be suffering now.
Very highly recommended to anyone.
