There are a number of factors affecting your ability to wear contact lenses safely with
minimal risk of infection or allergies. Your eyes’ general health will be evaluated for:
- tear production
- eye shape
- blinking, eyelids
- specific prescription
Your general health and other factors will be assessed:
- current medications
- motivation to wear contacts
- work environment
- past history with contacts
- ability to properly care for your contacts
This complete evaluation enables us to select the appropriate contact lenses for you. Our
doctor recommend an annual evaluation of your eye health to monitor for allergies,
infections, dry eyes and other medical eye problems.
Contact lens fittings can be performed on the day of your initial complete eye exam by
informing the receptionist of your desire when scheduling your appointment.
Better Technology for a Better Fit
Corneal Topography
Corneal topography (also called “corneal mapping”) evaluates 8,000 to 10,000 specific
points across the entire corneal surface. It measures corneal curvature by shining a light
onto the surface of the eye, then evaluates the reflected light to yield a measurement of the
cornea’s actual refractive power. Corneal topography is particularly useful in measuring
astigmatism and managing complex contact lens fitting.
The data yielded by corneal topography assists the doctor in fitting gas permeable lenses
and aids in evaluating the topographical impact of corneal changes in patients who wear
soft contact lenses. Some corneal topography equipment can assist in selecting the
optimal contact lens size and design.
In addition, corneal mapping is an important tool for the diagnosis and management of
conditions and diseases of the cornea, such as keratoconus or corneal scarring, and to
evaluate unexplained vision loss.
Lens Care and Replacement
Few things affect your quality of life more than your vision, and you should never put it at
risk. As a contact lens wearer, proper care and frequent changing of your contact lenses
are essential to keeping your eyes healthy and your vision clear.
Because everyone’s eyes and vision needs are different, contact lenses are available with
varying schedules for removal and replacement. All lenses, however, fall into one of two
categories: DAILY WEAR or EXTENDED WEAR.
DAILY WEAR contact lenses should be removed every night before going to bed. They are
later discarded and replaced with a new pair at varying intervals. Some daily wear lenses
are discarded every day, while others are discarded after one or two weeks or longer. If
these lenses are re-used they must be cleaned and disinfected before they are worn
again.
EXTENDED WEAR contact lenses are worn overnight until the end of the wear schedule.
Disposable extended wear lenses are discarded when removed. Others are cleaned,
disinfected, and reused again before being replaced.
When you follow the replacement schedule your doctor has recommended, lenses are
replaced before the buildup of deposits on the surface of the lens can degrade lens
performance. Patients often find it illogical to throw away lenses while their vision and
comfort are still good. However, some eye problems can go unnoticed for a long time
before symptoms occur. Complying with the replacement schedule is the best way to
avoid complications and prevent problems in the future.
