Get Your Contact Lens Prescription

Whether you plan to wear contacts all day long or only for special occasions or sports, it’s important to have an up-to-date contact lens prescription. This prescription is different from your glasses prescription because it includes extra information about the particular shape of your eyes.

In our contact lens exams and fittings, we’ll take precise measurements so we can find you a great fit for your contacts.

Your Contact Lens Exam & Fitting

During your contact lens exam, we’ll measure your visual acuity and refractive error to determine your prescription. We’ll also take precise measurements of your cornea, pupils, and iris.

It’s important that your eyes are healthy and your tear production is good when you’re wearing contacts. We may test your tear quality and assess any dry eye symptoms to ensure you’re a good candidate for contacts.

In your contact lens fitting, we’ll help you insert and remove your contacts, give you time to test them out, and teach you how to care for them.

The Importance of Contact Lens Hygiene

Taking good care of your contacts will lower your risk of an eye infection related to contact lens use as well as discomfort from wearing old lenses. The following tips can support healthy, comfortable eyes:

  • Always wash your hands before and after inserting your lenses.
  • Remove and dispose of your contacts on the timelines provided by your optometrist.
  • Replace your contact lens case every 3 months.
  • Don’t sleep in your contacts unless they’re designed to be slept in.
