The Importance of Contact Lens Exams
What Is a Contact Lens Exam?
A contact lens exam is different from a standard eye exam. While a regular eye exam evaluates your overall vision and eye health, a contact lens exam focuses specifically on fitting and prescribing contact lenses. During your visit, our optometrist will:
- Measure Your Eyes: We will take precise measurements of your cornea and other parts of your eye to ensure a proper fit.
- Evaluate Your Tear Film: This helps us determine if your eyes produce enough moisture for comfortable lens wear.
- Discuss Your Options: We will talk about your lifestyle, preferences, and any specific needs to recommend the best type of contact lenses for you.
