Contact Lenses
We understand that clear vision is essential for a fulfilling life. Contact lenses offer a convenient and effective alternative to eyeglasses for correcting a variety of vision problems. Our team of experienced ophthalmologists and optometrists can help you determine if contact lenses are right for you and guide you through the fitting process to find the perfect lens for your needs.
Types of Contact Lenses We Offer
Rigid Gas Permeable (RGP) Lenses
Rigid Gas Permeable (RGP) lenses are a type of contact lenses that are made of a rigid, durable material. They are designed to allow for increased oxygen flow to your eye, which can provide sharper vision for some individuals. Although RGP lenses may require a bit of an adjustment period compared to soft lenses, they offer several benefits. They are highly durable and can last for several years, which makes them a cost-effective option in the long run. Moreover, RGP lenses provide excellent clarity of vision, especially for people with astigmatism or other refractive errors. Overall, they are a great choice for people who want a reliable and long-lasting solution for their vision correction needs.
Soft Contact Lenses
Soft contact lenses are a widely popular type of lenses known for their exceptional comfort and flexibility. They are made of soft, pliable materials that conform to the shape of your eyes, making them comfortable to wear for extended periods. These lenses are available in various disposable schedules, including daily, weekly, and bi-weekly, allowing you to choose the one that best suits your preferences and lifestyle. With soft lenses, you can enjoy clear vision without any discomfort or irritation, making them an ideal choice for people with sensitive eyes.
