Contact Lenses 

Why choose contact lenses?

First, contact lenses provide excellent side, or peripheral, vision.  They don’t get fogged during the rainy weather.  Finally, contact lenses match everything you wear.

A contact lens evaluation includes special tests that are not performed during a comprehensive eye examination.  Contact lenses are medical devices, regulated by the FDA, which require a fitting and a prescription, including colored, non-prescription cosmetic styles.

A contact lens evaluation includes the following measurements will be taken to ensure proper fit and vision:

  • Cornea measurement
  • Tear film evaluation
  • Evaluation of the interface of the contact and your eye’s surface
