What to Expect During Your Contact Lens Fitting

A professional contact lens fitting at EyeC Optometry includes several key steps:

  • Comprehensive Eye Exam: We start with a full eye health evaluation and vision assessment to determine your exact prescription needs.
  • Corneal Measurements: Precise measurements ensure your lenses fit comfortably and maintain proper eye health.
  • Tear Film Evaluation: We assess tear production to ensure lenses are a good option for your eyes and help prevent dryness or irritation.
  • Trial Lenses: You'll try trial lenses in-office to check for comfort and visual clarity. Adjustments can be made immediately to find your best match.
  • Lens Care Education: We’ll show you how to insert, remove, and care for your lenses to promote healthy, long-term wear.
