Types of contact lens fittings:
Spherical – These contacts correct either farsighted (hyperopia) or nearsighted (myopia) corrections.
Astigmatism lenses and Specialty Toric – These lenses are used to treat astigmatism. Instead of a standard spherical surface, toric lenses have a shape to create different focusing powers on the vertical and horizontal planes. We fit several specialty lenses that can fit the majority of people in contacts, even with a high astigmatism correction.
Multifocal Lenses – These lenses are for patients who require a reading prescription (presbyopia). Multifocal contacts comprise multiple prescription strengths in a single contact lens to correct vision at multiple distances.
Toric multifocal – A lens that can correct both astigmatism and presbyopia.
Scleral Lenses – Large contact lens that rests on the sclera (the white outer layer of the eyeball) and creates a tear-filled vault over the cornea. These lenses are used to treat a variety of eye conditions such as Keratoconas, Dry eyes, and irregularly shaped corneas.
