Many patients experience dryness with their contact lenses. Dry lenses cause both poor vision and reduced comfort. Our office takes a different approach to fitting contacts.
We've found that certain materials and lens styles simply work better for our dry eye patients, and that means better end of the day comfort for you.
Toric contact lenses for patients with astigmatism
A lot of patients are confused by astigmatism. In most cases, it's when your eye is shaped more like an egg than a ping-pong ball. Special "toric" lenses correct the distorted vision caused by this irregular eye shape.
Our doctors have significant experience with these lenses and most astigmatic prescriptions can be successfully fit in a short amount of time.
Bifocal and multifocal contact lenses
Bifocal and multifocal contact lenses have been somewhat of an enigma for many years. Lenses of yesteryear improved near vision somewhat but caused significantly blurred faraway vision for driving.
Fortunately, there's good news! Today's multifocal soft and gas permeable contacts allow for more natural vision at all distances than ever before.
Specialty contact lenses
Irregular corneas can be caused by several conditions, including keratoconus, corneal dystrophies, previous eye surgery and trauma.
Our doctors are experienced with hard to fit contact lenses, and our new Oculus EasyGraph corneal topographer makes diagnosis and contact lens fitting easier than ever before.
