Complete Contact Lens Exams

Are you considering the convenience of contact lenses? The journey to clear and comfortable vision begins with a comprehensive contact lens exam. We provide thorough exams to ensure your contact lenses fit perfectly and support your eye health.

What is a Contact Lens Exam?

A comprehensive contact lens exam goes beyond a standard eye exam to assess your suitability for contact lenses. This detailed evaluation helps determine the best type of contact lenses for your vision needs and lifestyle. We aim to ensure contact lenses correct your vision and provide optimal comfort and eye health.

While a normal eye test focuses on checking your overall eye health and updating your glasses prescription, a contact lens exam includes additional steps to fit and prescribe contact lenses. It involves a more in-depth assessment of your eye's shape and health to ensure you can wear contact lenses.

The Tests in a Contact Lens Exam

During a contact lens exam, we perform several tests, including:

  • Corneal Topography: This test maps the curvature of your cornea to help determine the best fit for your contact lenses
  • Tear Film Evaluation: We assess the quality and quantity of your tears to ensure your eyes can comfortably support contact lens wear
  • Pupil and Iris Measurements: We take accurate measurements of your pupil and iris to select the appropriate size and type of lenses
  • Lens Fitting: We fit trial lenses to evaluate their comfort and positioning on your eyes
  • Prescription Determination: We determine your contact lens prescription, which may differ from your glasses prescription
