Contact Lenses

CONTACT LENSES

Contact lenses are thin, curved lenses placed on the surface of the eye to correct vision or for cosmetic/therapeutic purposes. Modern contact lenses offer exceptional comfort and clarity, providing an excellent alternative to glasses for many people.

Our clinic offers comprehensive contact lens services including fitting, training, and follow-up care for all types of contact lenses. We use advanced diagnostic equipment to ensure the perfect fit for your eyes and lifestyle.

Who Can Benefit from Contact Lenses?
  • People wanting freedom from glasses for sports or daily activities
  • Those with active lifestyles where glasses may be inconvenient
  • Patients with high prescriptions that cause thick glasses lenses
  • Individuals with corneal conditions requiring therapeutic lenses
  • People wanting to change their eye color cosmetically
  • Those with irregular corneas (keratoconus) needing specialty lenses

Frequently Asked Questions about Contact Lenses

  • Are contact lenses safe?

    Yes, when properly fitted and cared for, contact lenses are very safe. Following your eye doctor's instructions for wear, cleaning, and replacement is essential to maintain eye health.

  • How long can I wear my contacts each day?

    Most daily wear lenses should be removed before sleeping and worn no more than 10-12 hours daily. Extended wear lenses approved for overnight use can be worn continuously for up to 7 days.

  • Can I swim or shower with contacts?

    It's best to avoid water exposure with contacts to reduce infection risk. If swimming is necessary, use waterproof goggles and daily disposable lenses that can be discarded afterward.

    Most people with common vision problems can wear contacts. A comprehensive eye exam will determine if contacts are suitable for your eyes, prescription, and lifestyle needs.
