Contact Lenses

Contact lenses correct your vision and easy to wear. Choosing the contact lenses that are right for you depends on your vision and comfort.

Soft Contact Lenses

The most frequently prescribed due to tremendous comfort. Soft contacts are now available for patients with astigmatism and can even change the color of your eyes.
Soft contact lenses include:

• Daily Wear – can be worn up to 12 hours but must be removed and cleaned at night
• Extended Wear – can be worn on a more flexible schedule than daily wear
• Disposable – meant to be worn for a short time and then discarded
• Color Changing – can change the color of your eyes even if vision correction is not needed

Hard Contact Lenses

Also called rigid or gas-permeable lenses, hard contact lenses offer sharper vision and can correct nearsightedness or astigmatism. However, hard contact lenses take longer to adjust to than soft contact lenses.
