Are Contacts Right for You?

Before we recommend contact lenses, we will perform an eye exam and an assessment of the cornea to determine which types of contact lenses would be a good option for you.

Soft contact lenses may be a good option for you if:

You have a healthy tear film

Your environment is free of dust and dirt in the air

You don’t have eye diseases or conditions

If it’s determined that you may not be a good soft contact lens candidate due to the reasons above, we also fit various types of specialty contact lenses for hard-to-fit corneas.

Our Specialty Contacts

Specialty contacts are designed to help people with specific vision problems like irregular corneas, high prescriptions, or dry eye.

We can also provide multifocal lenses, toric lenses, aspheric lenses, and hybrid lenses that have a combination of both soft and hard materials. These types of contacts can address your vision needs in a way that works for you.

If you have an eye condition or disease, please let us know before you come in for your contact lens appointment.

Scleral Lenses

Scleral contact lenses are a type of contact lens specially designed for people with irregular corneas.

These large-diameter lenses “vault” over the cornea, providing clear, comfortable vision for those with conditions like keratoconus or dry eye.

Ortho-K Lenses

Orthokeratology (ortho-k) lenses are an innovative solution for kids who have myopia. These contacts work by reshaping the cornea at night while they sleep, correcting their vision.

During the day, your child doesn’t need to wear glasses or contact lenses, allowing them to participate in sports and other activities freely.

Learn more about myopia on our Myopia Control page.

Rigid Gas-Permeable Lenses

Rigid gas-permeable (RGP) lenses are a type of lens that uses rigid, durable materials.

These lenses have been known to provide sharper vision than other types of contacts and can be easier to use compared to soft contacts.

Scleral Lenses for Keratoconus, Dry Eye, & Astigmatism

Scleral lenses are enhancing our approach to treating various eye conditions, providing a beacon of hope for those living with conditions like keratoconus, severe dry eye, and astigmatism.

These lenses offer vision correction, comfort, and protection for the eyes. We can help you learn more about the scleral lenses we offer and how they might support your vision and eye comfort—as well as the specific benefits they offer for conditions like keratoconus, dry eye, and astigmatism.

Keratoconus

Keratoconus is an eye condition characterized by the thinning of the cornea, which then bulges into a cone-like shape.

Unlike standard contact lenses, scleral lenses vault over the cornea, resting on the white part of the eye (the sclera) and creating a smooth optical surface. This design helps correct the distorted vision caused by keratoconus but also provides comfort and clarity that traditional contacts may not offer for people with keratoconus.

Dry Eye

Severe dry eye syndrome can significantly affect your quality of life, leading to discomfort, redness, and irritation. Traditional contact lenses can sometimes exacerbate these symptoms, but scleral lenses can help.

Due to their unique design, scleral lenses can store moisture in a reservoir between the lens and the cornea. This moisture can help alleviate dry eye symptoms and reduce the need for artificial tears or other moisture-inducing eye drops.

Astigmatism

Astigmatism is an irregular curvature of the cornea, leading to blurred or distorted vision at both near and far distances. Correcting astigmatism requires a lens that can accommodate the cornea’s irregular shape, and scleral lenses can be an excellent choice for this task.

The custom fit and specialty design of scleral lenses help them sit on an irregularly shaped cornea while providing a smooth refractive surface that corrects vision.

Contact Lens Fitting Technology

We offer personalized contact lens fittings using a range of modern fitting technology.

We can determine which lens type is right for your vision and lifestyle through detailed cornea exams and high-resolution imaging technology.

Corneal Topography

Corneal topography is a technology used in contact lens fittings that provides a detailed map of your cornea. This map gives optometrists a precise understanding of how contact lenses can help correct your vision.

The accuracy of corneal topography makes it essential for those who require specialized prescriptions or complex vision correction solutions.

Anterior Segment Camera

An anterior segment camera is an imaging device used to help us accurately detect abnormalities in the front area of the eye.

This type of imaging helps us detect potential issues affecting your eye health, as it gives us a better picture of the structure and curvature of the eye.
