Contact Lenses Exams in Woodmere

For patients affected by astigmatism, conventional, single-vision contact lenses aren’t enough. But toric contact lenses with corrective powers, corresponding to the unique shape of your eye, cancel blurry vision and typical eye strain. The design of toric lenses from trusted brands allows them to spin into place on your cornea.

A bumpy and unusual corneal shape — effectively causing your unique refractive error — gets corrected when your new toric lenses spin and settle into place. They’re designed so that a visible starting point of the contact lens weighs anchor on your cornea in precise alignment with your astigmatism.

Every astigmatism needs a professional’s hand and eye when correcting it, and we match tailored toric contact lenses to your cornea at each contact lens fitting.

Presbyopia working in concert with myopia makes things like watching the road while driving and reading particularly hard to switch between. Fortunately, progressive glasses afford seamless focal transitions for your eyes as they attempt to view objects through different corrective zones. But the switch between prescriptive strengths means presbyopia patients can’t benefit from single-vision contact lenses.

Bifocal contact lenses can balance far and close vision just as bifocal glasses can. But these contact lenses come with a challenging side-effect called “image-jump” when focusing light and images into the back of your eye. Research and development on contact lenses from leading brands has resulted in multifocal contact lenses that iron out the “image jumps” common to bifocals.

A patient dealing with presbyopia needs a comfortable correction, and we fit your multifocal contact lenses with care at each contact lens fitting.
