Contact lenses give people the flexibility of enhanced vision without the hassles that come with glasses. Although patients differ, contact lenses tend not to be the only source of vision correction used. Some prefer to wear contacts on the weekends or while playing sports but wear glasses from day to day. For many, it is nice to have the option of contact lenses. If you do want the convenience of wearing contact lenses, having them fit correctly is critical, as is a full understanding of how to care for them for both hygiene and safety. Our contact lens exams include a comprehensive exam to evaluate your overall eye health and a vision prescription, followed by a contact lens consultation, where we take exact measurements to ensure that your lenses fit perfectly.

Contact lenses have come a long way over the years in both convenience and comfort. Our first step is to discuss your specific needs related to eyewear, such as your health and lifestyle requirements that could impact what type of contact lens suits you best.
Other options we discuss are whether you would like to have lenses that are disposable daily or monthly, and other variations like rigid versus soft contact lenses. If you do have a predisposing eye condition, such as dry eye syndrome or astigmatism, we make specific recommendations about what brand might provide you with the best vision and comfort.
Finally, we discuss whether you are interested in color contacts and whether you need multifocal, monovision, or a combination of the two to address your unique needs.
