What if I need contacts?
In addition to helping see well and look great in your new glasses, the experienced team of ophthalmologists and opticians also can help you find contacts that work best for your vision needs. Many people like to have glasses and contacts, so they have a choice of which to wear. For example, you may prefer to wear your glasses at work, but like contacts for special occasions and weekends when you’re not staring at a computer screen.
If you would like contacts, the team fits you for prescription lenses and offers a wide variety of contacts, such as daily, disposable, gas permeable, and other popular lens types. You may even be able to get a trial pair of lenses so you can test them out before ordering to see which ones work best for you in terms of vision and comfort.
