With advanced technology like corneal mapping, we’re able to gather precise, detailed information efficiently, providing a thorough, personalized experience while still being respectful of your time.
What a contact lens exam involves
A contact lens exam is different from a comprehensive eye exam, though the two can often be combined into one appointment. While a comprehensive exam focuses on your eye health and vision, a contact lens exam adds a series of specialized measurements and evaluations to make sure your lenses fit well, feel comfortable, and work with your lifestyle.
- Corneal measurements and curvature mapping to determine the best lens fit for your unique eye shape
- A tear film evaluation to check for dry eye, which can seriously affect how comfortable your contacts feel throughout the day
- Trial lens fitting to test real-world comfort, vision clarity, and lens stability
- Hands-on guidance for lens insertion, removal, and daily care
If it’s been a while since your last eye exam or if you’ve never had one specifically for contacts, this is a great opportunity to get a clear picture of your eye care needs.
We fit more than just standard contacts
Not everyone can wear standard contact lenses. Our team has extensive experience fitting a wide range of contact lenses, from daily, biweekly, and monthly soft lenses to options for astigmatism and presbyopia.
We also specialize in fitting specialty contact lenses for patients with keratoconus, corneal irregularities, high prescriptions, dry eyes, or other hard-to-fit situations. That includes scleral lenses and rigid gas permeable lenses, all options that can be life-changing for people who’ve struggled with contacts in the past.
There are more contact lens options available now than ever before. If you’ve given up on contacts in the past because they were uncomfortable or your prescription felt too complex, technology has come a long way, and so have your options. We can discuss your needs and recommend a lens better suited to your eye shape and lifestyle.
