Finding the right pair of comfortable contact lenses is challenging and time-consuming. At Today's Vision Creekside for optometry in Tomball, TX, we offer custom contact lenses and other eye care services. Learn more about custom contact lenses below.
What Are Custom Contact Lenses and Contact Lens Exams?
Custom contacts are designed to fit the exact shape of your eye. Typically, these lenses are replaced yearly, and they are the best choice if you have had trouble finding a pair that fits comfortably.
Unfortunately, not every person can fit into one size of the standard contact lenses. There is a lot of failure due to contact lenses not working correctly. Our team will perform a contact lens exam to fit you with the right custom pair.
Different Types of Custom Contact Lenses
Typically, we will recommend soft contact lenses or gas-permeable custom lenses. Soft custom lenses are ideal for patients that suffer from severe astigmatism. They are also a good option for any person that has suffered eye trauma or accidents that have left their eyes disfigured.
Gas-permeable lenses are great for their strength and their ability to let air pass through them. There are also ortho-k lenses that are designed to control myopia. These lenses are worn at night and can help correct nearsightedness. However, vision will return to normal once the lenses are not worn anymore.
Who Benefits from Custom Contact Lenses?
Any person who is not satisfied with vision or had issues with contacts in the past is a good fit for custom lenses. The lenses are suitable for eye conditions such as keratoconus, eye injuries, or unsuccessful LASIK procedures. Many custom lenses help correct presbyopia.
Care for Custom Contact Lenses
The care of custom lenses is not much different than conventional hard or soft lenses. Custom lenses are generally designed to be worn for more extended periods. Therefore, it's more essential to take proper care of the lenses to keep them clean and comfortable.
