• Multifocal contact lenses for those who need readers, bifocals, progressives
• Specialty contact lenses for corneal degenerations like keratoconus are also available

Contact lens evaluations

These include examination of the fit of the contact lens on the eye, the contact lens prescription or power which differs from eyeglasses prescriptions, and monitoring of the health of the front of the eye for side effects that could affect one's future eye health and vision.
