I went to Herrera Cerpa Puerto yesterday, they ordered the lenses and gave me two pairs for free to wait for the arrival of my lenses.

Local Opticians

For those who prefer a more personalized service, visiting a local optician is a good idea. Opticians in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria can address your specific needs and provide quick solutions, especially if you have special requirements. You can find opticians throughout the city, with a higher concentration in areas like Mesa y López and Triana. El Corte Inglés also has an optician service, adding to the convenience.

Just like anywhere else, go to an optician. They’ll solve your problem out fairly quickly unless you have special requirements. You’ll find one mostly everywhere but more so in Mesa y López (El Corte Inglés has one too) and in Triana.

VisionDirect.es

If you prefer the convenience of online shopping, VisionDirect.es is a reliable option. This website allows you to order contact lenses online and ships to the Canary Islands using DHL. This service is particularly useful for expats and digital nomads who may not have the time to visit a physical store or prefer the ease of having their lenses delivered directly to their door.

I ordered my contact lenses through www.visiondirect.es, which ships to the Canaries using DHL.

  • A least half of the appeal of Las Palmas for remote workers and digital nomads is rooted in this community. It’s the best I’ve seen so far in terms of how well it is organised, structured and nurtured. It offers excellent opportunities to meet new people and explore the island.
