Expert Contact Lens Fittings for Comfortable Vision
Unlock Clear Vision: our Contact Lens Journey Begins Here
We offer a wide selection of contact lenses including disposable soft contact, bifocal/multifocal, toric, and colored lenses. Whether you wear daily, weekly or monthly disposables, or conventional (vial) lenses, check out our selection of lenses that fit your needs. A good contact lens fit starts with a thorough eye exam to ensure the most up-to-date prescription and rule out any pre-existing conditions that could interfere with contact lens wear. We will determine the best fitting lens based on your lifestyle needs, the shape and health of your eye. In most cases, you'll have the opportunity to try lenses on the same day as your exam. You can even go home with a few samples before making a final decision. We follow up the initial fitting and then make any necessary changes in fit or materials to get you the best possible fit. We teach all our patients proper contact lens care and also possible consequences if proper care is not taken. Then we continue with long-term follow-up to monitor the condition of the lenses and to ensure that proper hygiene is being maintained.

Contact Lenses for the “Hard-to-Fit” Patient
It is not uncommon for patients to have difficulty wearing contact lenses for a number of reasons. Due to the individual eye shape, certain conditions or impairments or the aftermath of surgery, some patients are considered to be “hard to fit” as contact lens wearers.
For hard to fit patients that prefer to wear contact lenses however, there are options available that can provide comfortable and effective contact lens wear. This will require a specialized fitting with an eye doctor that is an expert that knows your condition and the various products available to find the right match for your specific condition. You may be considered a hard to fit contact lens candidate if you have one of the following conditions:
Gas Permeable (GP) Contact Lenses
Gas Permeable (GP) or Rigid Gas Permeable (RGP) contact lenses are an alternative to soft contact lenses that are made from a hard, oxygen permeable material. GP lenses are currently less popular than soft lenses but offer a number of advantages and are continuing to improve as research and technology advance.
GP contacts are made of a firm plastic material which allows the passage of oxygen through the lens to your cornea and the front surface of your eye – essentially allowing your eye to “breathe”. This increases comfort, health and safety during contact lens wear.
Bifocal and Multifocal Contact Lenses
If you are over 40 and have difficulty seeing close up, you probably have a common age-related condition called presbyopia which is when the eye’s natural lens loses the ability to focus on close objects. Presbyopia is a natural process as the eye ages and affects the majority of people from age 40 and upward. Individuals with presbyopia are often familiar with the need to hold reading materials such as newspapers an arm’s length away from their eyes in order to see clearly, yet reading glasses with bifocal or multifocal (progressive) lenses can help.

- A routine exam won’t provide some of the measurements and testing that are required to determine if your eyes are suitable for contact lens wear, and to generate your contact lens Rx.
- “I can’t wear soft contacts; I have astigmatism.” This once-true statement is now simply a myth.
Tailored Vision: Solutions for Difficult Cases
While some individuals may initially be classified as "hard-to-fit" for contact lenses due to unique eye shapes, underlying conditions, impairments, or post-surgical effects, there's reason to be optimistic. The spectrum of available contact lens options has expanded significantly, with innovative solutions catering to even the most challenging cases.
The key lies in a specialized fitting conducted by your experienced eye doctor. Through a comprehensive assessment, they can meticulously evaluate your needs and expertly determine the ideal lens type for optimal comfort and vision.
Here are some conditions that can contribute to being "hard-to-fit":
Unique Eye Shapes:
- Keratoconus: a progressive condition causing thinning and bulging of the cornea
- Pellucid Marginal Degeneration: a thinning disorder affecting the periphery of the cornea
Underlying Conditions:
- Dry Eyes: inadequate tear production or poor tear quality
- Giant Papillary Conjunctivitis (GPC): inflammation of the conjunctiva due to contact lens wear
- Astigmatism: irregular curvature of the cornea
For these situations, various contact lens types, such as toric, scleral, hard, and rigid gas permeable (RGP) lenses, can offer effective solutions.
