Contact Lenses for Nearsightedness, Farsightedness, Astigmatism, and some Bifocal Corrections.

Contact lenses are now available in most prescriptions for nearsightedness, farsightedness, astigmatism, and some bifocal corrections. Dr. Kay specializes in hard to fit prescriptions and has fit hundreds of patients over the years that were told they couldn’t wear contacts.

KEYS TO SUCCESFULL CONTACT LENS WEAR:

Motivation: Your desire to wear contacts must be great enough to get you through the normal adaptation and learning period. In more difficult prescriptions it may also mean multiple fitting visits in our office.

Proper fit: The fitting properties of a lens are determined by several factors including lens curvature, diameter, and power. The contact must fit well enough to center properly but not so tight as to prevent an adequate oxygen supply to the cornea. Considerable professional judgment is required in obtaining the best fit

Cooperation: You must adhere to the prescribed wearing schedules, cleaning procedures, and replacement cycles.
