Getting the Right Fit
Every person’s eyes are unique, and your fitting process can differ because of this.
During the contact lens exam, Dr. Yee goes beyond the regular vision test to obtain an exact map of your cornea using a corneal topographer. This technology allows us to measure your pupils and cornea carefully, helping your contact lenses fit safely and comfortably.
How Contact Lenses Can Help
If you have a simple corrective prescription, soft contacts are a popular choice. These comfortable and flexible lenses provide excellent vision correction for many individuals.
However, if you have a more complex prescription or find that soft lenses irritate your eyes due to protein buildup, we may suggest rigid gas-permeable contacts. These lenses allow for better oxygen flow to the eyes and can offer clearer vision for those with trickier prescriptions.
At Eyes of Texas Vision Care, we also offer specialized lenses to address specific eye conditions, such as toric lenses for astigmatism, scleral lenses for abnormally shaped corneas, and more.
Our Specialty Contact Lenses
Contact lenses help correct refractive errors such as myopia (nearsightedness), hyperopia (farsightedness), presbyopia, and astigmatism.
Different specialty contacts can also help manage eye conditions like dry eye and keratoconus, allowing you to wear contact lenses comfortably. During your exam, we can review your lifestyle and preferences to determine what lenses are the best fit.
Our team also uses corneal topography to ensure we get accurate measurements of your eyes.
Scleral Lenses for Dry Eye & Keratoconus
Scleral lenses are specialized lenses designed to fit comfortably over abnormally shaped corneas, providing relief and improved vision.
If you suffer from dry eyes, traditional contact lenses may exacerbate the issue. However, scleral lenses offer a unique advantage. By vaulting completely over your cornea, they create a reservoir of moisture between the lens and your eye. This helps to keep your eyes hydrated and comfortable throughout the day.
For those with keratoconus, a condition characterized by a cone-shaped cornea, scleral lenses are particularly beneficial. They provide a smooth and even surface for the eye, correcting vision and reducing distortion caused by the irregular shape of the cornea.
Ortho-k Lenses for Myopia Management
Ortho-k lenses are designed to be worn overnight, gently reshaping the cornea while you sleep.
With ortho-k lenses, your child can wake up with clear vision without the need for glasses or daytime contact lenses. They work by temporarily correcting the shape of your child’s cornea, slowing down the progression of myopia over time.
Imagine the convenience of your kids going about their day without worrying about their glasses or contact lenses.
Toric Lenses for Astigmatism
Toric lenses are designed to specifically target and correct the irregular shape of your cornea, providing clear and sharp vision.
These lenses target blurry and distorted vision caused by astigmatism. Whether you’re nearsighted or farsighted, these lenses work their magic to give you the crisp vision you deserve.
