Contact lenses provide a convenient alternative to eyeglasses for correcting refractive errors such as myopia, hyperopia, astigmatism, and presbyopia. A proper contact lens fitting is essential to ensure comfort, optimal vision correction, and eye health. During the fitting process, an eye care professional evaluates factors such as corneal curvature, pupil size, and tear film quality to determine the appropriate contact lens parameters. These parameters include lens power, base curve, diameter, and, if applicable, cylinder and axis for astigmatism correction. Additionally, factors such as lifestyle, wearing schedule preferences, and any underlying eye conditions are considered to recommend the most suitable type of contact lenses, whether they are soft contact lenses, rigid gas permeable lenses, hybrid lenses, or scleral lenses. Regular follow-up visits with the eye care professional are necessary to monitor eye health, assess the fit and comfort of contact lenses, and make any necessary adjustments to ensure continued satisfaction and safety.

Fitting contact lenses requires care and precision to ensure proper vision correction and eye health. A contact lens prescription is different from the regular eyewear prescription. The contact lens need to directly sit on the cornea, which require careful fitting to support comfort. Our optomestrist will first evaluate your overall eye health and give you sample lenses to try and assess the comfort and fit. We will observe the lens on your eyes to ensure proper centration, movement, and coverage of the cornea. If the trial lenses fit well and provide clear vision, the eye care professional will finalize your contact lens prescription, specifying parameters like base curve, diameter, and power. Finally, we will provide detailed instructions on how to insert, remove, clean, and store your contact lenses safely. We will also educate you on proper hygiene practices and the importance of regular follow-up appointments.
Caring for contact lenses is crucial for maintaining eye health and maximizing comfort. So you need to follow your optomestrist's instructions carefully to help keep your eyes healthy. Serious infections can be associated with contact lens wear, so hygiene is most of important. Use recommended multipurpose or hydrogen peroxide solution to clean and disinfect lenses after each use, following manufacturer instructions. Avoid using water or saliva to clean lenses, as it can introduce harmful microorganisms. Store lenses in a clean case filled with fresh solution, replacing the solution daily and the case every three months. Never sleep in lenses unless prescribed for extended wear, and avoid wearing them while swimming or showering to prevent infection. Regularly visit your eye care professional for check-ups and adhere to their guidance for safe and comfortable contact lens wear. Request your eye exam and meet our fatanstic team today!
