Contact Lens Fitting

Contact lenses can provide you with freedom away from glasses and enhance your quality of life. The proper fit and follow up of your contacts are important for achieving clear vision and maintaining the overall health of your eyes. When you call to make an appointment for an eye exam, be sure to let the staff know that you also need a lens fitting. If you are experiencing blurry vision, discomfort or dry eyes with your old lenses, please bring your previous contact lens information to your appointment so we can discuss the differences between your old lenses and the newest options available.

FAQs

At what age are kids recommended to have a comprehensive Eye Exam?
Every child should have an eye exam by age 3 or 4, specially if there is a history of Amblyopia (lazy eye) in the family. If a child was born premature or had other medical issues, your pediatrician may recommend annual eye exams for kids younger than 3.
Does health insurance cover annual Eye Exams?
Most medical insurance plans cover 1 comprehensive eye exam per year, however, you may need to check with your insurance provider to look into your specific plan. There are also optical insurance plans like EyeMed and VSP that can cover annual eye exams with a small copay. We are an In-Network provider for EyeMed, VSP and most Medical Insurance Plans.
At what age can kids try Contact Lenses?
In many cases, kids can be successful with Contact Lens wear by age 12. Some younger patients at age 9-11 can also do well with daily disposable contact lenses but the success rate is much higher at 12+. For younger patients who have an increase in nearsightedness for a few years, the option of Myopia Control soft lenses can also be discussed.

Can I see an Optometrist for Pink Eye or do I have to see my family physician?
Your Optometrist is much better equipped to diagnose and treat pink eye (along with any other red eye conditions) as compared to urgent care or a family practice. An instrument called a Slit Lamp is required to get a magnified view of the surface of the eye in order to distinguish between a variety of inflammatory conditions or infections. Most urgent care offices do not have a Slit Lamp and often refer patients to the eye care professionals.
Can I wear Contact Lenses if I have Astigmatism or if I need Bifocal Glasses?
Yes! At Advanced Family Eyecare, our optometrists can discuss the latest technology in Contact Lenses and share the option of Toric lenses or Multifocal lenses if you are a potential candidate. There are also new lenses that can correct both Astigmatism and Presbyopia at the same time for certain cases.
