Contact Lens Exams
A contact lens exam is a specialized eye examination that evaluates your eyes' suitability for contact lens wear and determines the most appropriate contact lens prescription for your needs. During the exam, our optometrists will:
- Assess your overall eye health and vision.
- Measure your corneal curvature and pupil size.
- Determine your refractive error (prescription).
- Discuss your lifestyle, occupation, and preferences for contact lens wear.
Contact Lens Fitting and Trial
Once your contact lens prescription has been determined, our experienced optometrists will conduct a contact lens fitting to ensure proper lens selection and fit. This process involves:
- Lens Selection: Based on your eye examination results and lifestyle preferences, our optometrists will recommend the most suitable type of contact lenses for your needs, such as soft contact lenses, rigid gas permeable (RGP) lenses, toric lenses for astigmatism, or multifocal lenses for presbyopia.
- Lens Trial: During the contact lens fitting, you will have the opportunity to try different contact lens options to assess comfort, vision clarity, and fit. Our optometrists will provide instructions on proper insertion, removal, and care of the lenses and tips for maintaining optimal eye health while wearing contacts.
- Follow-Up Visits: After the initial contact lens fitting, you may be scheduled for follow-up visits to evaluate the fit and performance of the lenses and make any necessary adjustments to ensure optimal comfort and vision.
Documentation Collected Throughout the Process
Our team will collect various documentation throughout the contact lens fitting process to ensure accurate and comprehensive record-keeping. This documentation may include:
- Patient demographics and medical history.
- Results of the contact lens exam and corneal measurements.
- Details of contact lens trials, including lens type, parameters, and wearing schedule.
- Any observed changes in eye health or vision during follow-up visits.
- Prescription details for contact lenses ordered.
