What Are Contact Lens Exams?

Contact lens exams are comprehensive eye exams specifically designed to assess your suitability for contact lens wear. Unlike standard eye exams, these evaluations delve deeper into the unique factors that affect contact lens comfort and effectiveness.

While regular eye exams assess eye health and visual acuity, a contact lens exam determines candidacy for contacts and prescribes lenses tailored to your needs. Our experienced eye doctors understand the nuances of contact lens wear and provide personalized recommendations.

During your contact lens exam, we discuss lifestyle habits, eye conditions, and preferences that may affect your comfort with contact lenses. Whether considering colored lenses, multifocals, or specialized lenses, our goal is to find the perfect fit for you.

  • Corneal Health Assessment: Ensuring the cornea is healthy and suitable for contact lens wear.
  • Tear Film Evaluation: Assessing tear production and quality for comfortable lens wear.
  • Contact Lens Fitting: Determining the best type, size, and prescription of contact lenses for your eyes.
  • Enhanced Peripheral Vision: Contact lenses provide a wider field of view compared to glasses, enhancing peripheral vision for various activities.
  • Natural Appearance: Enjoy a natural and unobstructed view of your face without the frames of glasses.
  • Active Lifestyle: Contact lenses are ideal for individuals with active lifestyles, offering freedom of movement without the hindrance of glasses.
  • Variety of Options: Choose from a variety of contact lens options, including daily disposables, monthly lenses, toric lenses for astigmatism, and multifocal lenses for presbyopia.
  • New Contact Lens Wearers: If you’re considering contact lenses for the first time, a contact lens exam is essential to ensure a proper fit and understanding of lens care.
  • Experienced Wearers: Even if you’ve been wearing contacts for years, regular contact lens exams are crucial for monitoring eye health, updating prescriptions, and exploring new technologies.

Contact Lens Fitting Process

One size does not fit all when it comes to contact lenses. A proper fit ensures comfort, clear vision, and prevents potential eye damage. Our eye doctors take precise measurements of your cornea, pupil, and iris to customize lenses that match your eyes’ unique characteristics.

  • Corneal Curvature: Measured with a keratometer, ensuring the right curve for your lenses.
  • Pupil or Iris Size: Measured to determine the ideal lens size for your eyes.
  • Tear Film Evaluation: Assessing tear production to prevent discomfort from dry eyes.

Trial Contact Lenses

After measurements, you’ll try trial lenses. We assess fit, comfort, and vision clarity. Several trials may be necessary to find the perfect match. Your eye doctor then orders your lenses, providing detailed care instructions.

How Often Do You Need a Contact Lens Exam?

After a week of wearing trial lenses, we check how your eyes adjust. Don’t wait if you experience discomfort or dryness; visit us promptly. We may adjust your lens type, recommend different solutions, or modify your wearing schedule.
