The Contact Lens Fitting Process

1. Initial Consultation and Eye Exam We begin by examining your eyes, reviewing your vision history, and taking measurements of your corneal curvature. This step helps us determine the right prescription and lens type for your eyes.
2. Contact Lens Fitting Based on the exam results, we help you select the most suitable contact lenses. We consider factors such as your lifestyle, work environment, and any specific eye conditions you may have. A trial fitting ensures that your lenses are comfortable and provide optimal vision.
3. Education on Contact Lens Care Once you are fitted with your new contact lenses, we provide you with detailed instructions on proper handling, cleaning, and maintenance. We also discuss potential risks and the importance of regular eye exams to ensure the health of your eyes.
4. Follow-Up Appointment After a few weeks, we’ll schedule a follow-up appointment to ensure the lenses fit properly and that you’re satisfied with your vision. If necessary, we make adjustments to enhance comfort and performance.

Benefits of Wearing Contact Lenses

• Improved Vision: Contact lenses can offer better peripheral vision compared to glasses and are less likely to fog up or get splashed.
• Aesthetic Appeal: Contact lenses allow for greater freedom, especially for active individuals or those who prefer not to wear glasses.
• Enhanced Comfort: With advancements in contact lens technology, today’s lenses are more comfortable and healthier for your eyes than ever before.
• Versatility: Whether you need corrective lenses for nearsightedness, farsightedness, or astigmatism, contact lenses are versatile and can address multiple vision needs.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

1. What should I expect during a contact lens fitting?

During the fitting, our ophthalmologists will take measurements of your eyes, including the curvature of your cornea, and assess your vision needs. You’ll try on a set of trial lenses, and we’ll ensure they fit comfortably while providing clear vision.

2. How do I know if contact lenses are right for me?

Contact lenses are suitable for most people, but factors such as eye shape, prescription, and lifestyle preferences are taken into account. Dr. Ashwin Shetty and Dr. Soumya Shetty will conduct a thorough eye exam to determine whether contacts are a good option for you.

3. How long will it take to get my contact lenses?

The time for delivery varies depending on the type of lenses prescribed. In most cases, you’ll receive your lenses within a week. If special lenses (e.g., for astigmatism or multifocal needs) are required, it may take a little longer.
