At Family Eye Care, we understand that clear and comfortable vision is essential for your daily activities. While glasses make a great fashion statement, we appreciate that contact lenses can offer a convenient alternative. To meet all your eye health needs and help you find contact lenses that best suit your visual needs and lifestyle, our contact lens exams are designed to ensure a precise fit, optimal comfort, and maximum visual acuity.
The importance of contact lens exams
Contact lens exams are essential for several reasons. To start with, contact lenses sit directly on the eye, so ensuring the correct fit is crucial for clear and comfortable vision. Additionally, wearing contact lenses requires regular monitoring to prevent complications such as corneal abrasions, infections, and dry eye syndrome. Finally, the comfort and fit of your contact lenses significantly impacts your satisfaction with your vision correction. Our contact lens exams focus on finding the most comfortable and effective lenses for your lifestyle and visual requirements, and ensure the ongoing health of your eyes.
