Contact Lenses
What are Contact Lenses?
Contact lenses are thin, curved lenses that are placed on the surface of the eye to correct vision problems. Contact lenses are considered a medical device and require a prescription from an eye doctor. A contact lens fitting is a process of finding the best type and size of contact lens for each individual eye. A contact lens fitting involves measuring the shape and curvature of the eye, testing the vision with different lenses, and evaluating the comfort and health of the eye with the lenses.
Advantages
One of the advantages of contacts over glasses is that they provide a more natural and wider field of view. Contacts also eliminate glare, fogging, and distortion that can occur with glasses. Contacts can also enhance one’s appearance and self-confidence, as well as allow for more freedom in sports and other activities.
