Before you can enjoy the benefits of contact lenses, it’s essential to undergo a comprehensive contact lens exam. These exams focus specifically on assessing your eyes’ candidacy for contact lens wear.
During the contact lens exam, we can evaluate your eye health, measure your corneal curvature, and determine your prescription, helping us find the right contact lens for you and your needs.
Contact lenses are a suitable option for many individuals, but it’s important to determine if they are the right choice for you. Factors such as eye health, lifestyle, and personal preferences play a crucial role in the decision-making process.
For example, individuals with dry eyes or certain eye conditions may require specialized contact lenses that increase moisture retention or promote better eye oxygen flow. Our team can evaluate your eye health and discuss any potential concerns or challenges that may arise with contact lens wear.
In addition to standard contact lenses, we offer a variety of specialty contact lenses to address specific visual needs and conditions.
These lenses provide tailored solutions for individuals with unique eye characteristics or vision requirements. If you have any questions about these contacts and how they can support your family’s vision, please reach out to us today!
MiSight lenses are designed for children with myopia (nearsightedness). These lenses can correct vision and help slow down the progression of myopia through special refracting techniques while keeping your child’s vision clear and comfortable.
Scleral lenses are large-diameter lenses that vault over the cornea and rest on the sclera (the white part of the eye). They are an option for individuals with irregular corneas, such as those with keratoconus or significant astigmatism.

For injuries that affect the eye we offer cosmetic contact lenses. These lenses can help mask any visible irregularities or discoloration, providing a natural-looking eye.
Depending on your preferences and eye care needs, we can also recommend several other types of contact lens types to help support your vision. Some of these can help you wear your contacts for longer periods of time, while others can correct unique vision errors like astigmatism and presbyopia.
