Contact lenses can provide clear vision without the need for glasses. Fortunately, our eye doctor at Fountain Valley Optometry in Fountain Valley can offer a vision screening and a contact lens fitting to ensure that you receive contacts that optimize your sight and provide a comfortable fit.
Eye Exams
If you're interested in contact lenses and haven't had a recent vision screening, our eye doctor will perform one for you. During this part of the exam, you'll be asked to read lines of letters, each at a different level of magnification. Based on the results, our optometrist can determine the extent of your vision deficit.
We will also assess whether you have astigmatism, as it can affect the type of contact lens that suits you best. Additionally, an eye health screening will be conducted to ensure that your eyes are suitable for wearing contacts. You will be asked to provide a medical/family history report, which can provide us with valuable insights into any conditions that may impact your comfort while wearing standard contacts.
Contact Lens Fittings
Following your eye exam, our optometry specialist will perform a contact lens fitting to determine the right size of contacts for you and help us select the appropriate brands. For this part of the appointment, our optometrist will have you look into a specialized machine that takes measurements of your eye.
Types of Contacts We Offer
After conducting your exam, we will recommend the right type of contact lenses for your vision correction to optimize your eyesight. For individuals with astigmatism, we may suggest toric lenses or other specialized options. Standard contacts may not fully optimize your vision due to the shape of your eye, and these lenses are designed specifically to enhance your eyesight.
Regardless of the type of contact lenses you receive, you can choose between monthly disposable lenses, bi-weekly disposable lenses, or daily disposable lenses, among other options. In some cases, you may even have the option to select lenses that you can sleep in.
