Vision
We evaluate your visual acuity and perform a refraction to determine whether you need vision correction or an updated prescription.
Eye Health
We evaluate your ocular health to identify findings or changes that may require monitoring, follow-up, or additional evaluation.
Personalized Care
Your visual needs, daily activities, history, symptoms, and lifestyle are considered when making recommendations for your eye care.
A complete evaluation of your vision and eye health.
Determination and updating of your prescription for eyeglasses based on your individual visual needs.
Evaluation, selection, and fitting of contact lenses according to your prescription, ocular characteristics, visual needs, and lifestyle.
Evaluation of symptoms such as dryness, burning, gritty or sandy sensation, redness, tearing, discomfort, or fluctuations in vision to help identify contributing factors and provide individualized recommendations.
Evaluation of the ocular structures as part of your comprehensive eye examination.
Evaluation of blurred vision, difficulty focusing, changes in vision, or other visual concerns.
A contact lens fitting goes beyond selecting a prescription. During your evaluation, we assess your prescription, visual needs, ocular characteristics, ocular surface health, and how the lens fits on your eye. We also consider factors such as comfort, ocular dryness, lifestyle, and wearing time to help determine the type of contact lens that may be most appropriate for you. If you currently experience dryness or discomfort with contact lenses, these concerns can also be addressed as part of your evaluation.
For patients who are new to contact lenses, we can also provide guidance on proper insertion, removal, handling, and care.
Myopia & Hyperopia
Designed to correct nearsightedness (myopia) or farsightedness (hyperopia). Spherical contact lenses are commonly used when vision correction does not require a specific design for astigmatism or presbyopia.
Astigmatism
Designed specifically to correct astigmatism. Toric contact lenses provide different corrective powers in different meridians of the lens and are designed to maintain the appropriate orientation on the eye.
Presbyopia
Designed for patients with presbyopia who need vision correction at different distances. Multifocal lenses incorporate different powers to provide functional vision at distance, intermediate, and near, potentially reducing dependence on reading glasses.
In addition to the type of vision correction you need, contact lenses are available with different replacement schedules. Availability will depend on your prescription, the specific contact lens selected, your ocular needs, and the manufacturer’s recommended replacement schedule.
A fresh pair of contact lenses every day. Daily disposable lenses are worn during the day and discarded after removal, eliminating the need to clean and store the lenses for reuse.
Contact lenses designed to follow a weekly replacement schedule according to the specific instructions for the lens selected.
Reusable contact lenses designed to be replaced on a two-week schedule. Appropriate cleaning, disinfection, and storage are required between uses.
Reusable contact lenses designed to be replaced monthly. Proper cleaning, disinfection, and storage are required throughout their recommended period of use.
Replacement schedules, wearing time, and care instructions vary depending on the specific contact lens prescribed and the manufacturer’s recommendations.
Not every contact lens performs the same way on every eye.
During your contact lens evaluation, we assess your visual correction needs, ocular characteristics, and the fit of the lens on your eye. We also consider factors such as comfort, ocular dryness, lifestyle, and wearing time when selecting an appropriate option.
