All ServicesPERSONALIZED LENS FITTING
Contact lenses offer an alternative to traditional glasses, providing a wide field of vision and convenience during many daily activities.
Finding the right lens involves more than selecting a prescription. Proper fitting considers your corneal shape, tear film, eye health, visual requirements, and comfort.
OUR LENS OPTIONS
Soft lenses are a popular choice for everyday vision correction. Options may include daily disposable, reusable, toric, and multifocal designs.
RGP lenses maintain their shape on the eye, providing precise optical correction. They may be appropriate for patients seeking sharp vision or managing certain corneal conditions.
Scleral lenses are larger specialty lenses that vault over the cornea and rest on the sclera. They can provide improved vision and comfort for certain patients with irregular corneas or ocular surface conditions.
Corneal reshaping therapy uses specially designed rigid lenses, typically worn during sleep, to temporarily reshape the cornea. Appropriate candidates may enjoy clearer daytime vision without wearing conventional correction.
Regular monitoring is essential, and overnight lens wear carries important infection risks.
Colored contact lenses can change or enhance the appearance of your eyes while providing vision correction when appropriate. Even nonprescription-powered cosmetic lenses require a proper contact lens prescription and fitting.
Patients with unique prescriptions, irregular corneas, or difficulty tolerating standard contacts may benefit from individualized fitting and follow-up evaluations.
THE FITTING PROCESS
Review your prescription, corneal measurements, tear film, and visual needs.
Evaluate lens fit, movement, vision, and comfort with appropriate trial lenses.
Review lens handling, cleaning, replacement schedules, and follow-up recommendations.
