Why Do You Need a Contact Lens Exam?

Since contact lenses sit directly on the surface of the eyes, it’s essential to assess their fit, comfort, and impact on eye health. Only a comprehensive contact lens exam can help with evaluating corneal health, tear film quality, and proper lens fit. We also consider your lifestyle, visual demands, and any specific concerns you may have.

Fitting lenses to your lifestyle

Contact lenses need to seamlessly fit into your lifestyle. This is why we factor in your unique vision needs, preferences, and daily activities to ensure that the contact lenses we recommend are a perfect match for you.

Whether you’re an active individual who enjoys sports and outdoor activities, a busy professional spending long hours in front of digital screens, or someone looking to enhance their natural eye color with colored lenses, we have a wide range of options to meet your lifestyle demands.

Follow Up Fittings

You’re more than just a number to us, which is why we offer follow-up fittings to monitor your contact lens experience. This allows us to make any necessary adjustments to ensure an optimal fit.

We’ll also emphasize the importance of proper care and storage to help prevent any eye infections or complications.

Discover the Freedom of Contact Lenses

Daily Disposable Contact Lenses

Daily contact lenses are a popular choice among contact lens wearers because they’re only worn once and then disposed of.

This means no storage and cleaning is necessary, which makes them ideal for people with busy lifestyles or those that can’t commit to the maintenance associated with extended wear contacts.

Bi-Weekly and Monthly Contact Lenses

Bi-weekly and monthly contact lenses offer an alternative to daily disposables. They’re worn longer before needing to be replaced, typically for two weeks or a month, depending on the specific brand and type.

To prevent complications, wearers need to clean them regularly and store them appropriately.

The main benefit of bi-weekly and monthly contacts is that they’re cost-effective, meaning you can experience the convenience and visual clarity they offer without breaking the bank.

Bifocal and Multifocal Contact Lenses

Bifocal and multifocal contact lenses are specifically designed to correct presbyopia, or age-related farsightedness, which is caused by aging.

Bifocal lenses contain two different prescriptions in one lens, typically for distance and near vision, allowing individuals to see clearly at various distances. Multifocal lenses offer multiple prescriptions within the same lens, providing a gradual transition between near, intermediate, and far distances.

This makes them ideal for presbyopia because they eliminate the need for switching between reading and prescription glasses and allow vision correction for near and distant objects.

Colored Contact Lenses

Colored contact lenses are a fun and creative way to change or enhance your eye color. They can be used for cosmetic purposes or to complete a costume or character look for Halloween or cosplay.

Unlike generic contact lenses found in beauty supply stores, our colored contact lenses are FDA-approved, meaning they won’t harm your vision and eye health when you wear them.

They’re also available in an array of colors and effects and can be bought in prescription and non-prescription forms.

Contact Lenses for "Hard-to-Fit" Eyes

Many people who wish to wear contact lenses are often told they’re unable to because of specific eye conditions or irregularly shaped corneas that make them “hard-to-fit”.

Luckily, specialty contact lenses that offer visual clarity and a comfortable fit are available for people with the following conditions:

  • Astigmatism
  • Keratoconus
  • Pellucid Marginal Degeneration
  • Dry Eyes
  • Presbyopia (reduced near vision common in individuals aged 40 and over).
  • Giant Papillary Conjunctivitis (GPC)
  • Post-LASIK or other refractive surgery
  • Corneal Scarring

Speciality contact lenses include toric lenses, scleral lenses, and rigid gas permeable (RGP) lenses.
