Contacts & GlassesQ & A

What are contacts and glasses?

Eyeglasses and contacts are lenses that correct imperfect vision, such as farsightedness, astigmatism, and nearsightedness. The Optic Gallery South Meadows eye care specialists personalize vision correction solutions to meet each patient’s individualized needs and preferences.

The practice offers eyeglasses, specialty contact lenses, conventional contact lenses, and anti-fatigue lenses to diminish eye strain in adults and children.

Optic Gallery South Meadows provides top-quality lenses and fashionable eyewear. If you’re approved to wear contact lenses, the experienced optometry specialists train you on how to care for, use, and properly dispose of the lenses.

The practice offers Tiffany, Gucci, Essilor, Tom Ford, Chopard, Phillipp Plein, Black Label, SALT, and many other designer frames.

Am I a candidate for contacts and glasses?

Your Optic Gallery South Meadows specialist offers a comprehensive eye exam and vision screening to determine if you’re a candidate for eyeglasses, contact lenses, or both.

Your provider discusses your eye health history, overall medical history, medications, and possible symptoms. They use an eye chart to evaluate your far vision and refraction testing to assess near vision. Your optometrist provides additional vision testing if needed to identify your vision prescription.

They also provide comprehensive eye exams to screen for signs of eye diseases. Your specialist uses a magnifying glass and light to view your eyes, may use eye drops to dilate your pupils, and offers imaging procedures and additional screenings to rule out or diagnose specific eye diseases.

Your eye doctor sends your vision prescription to a lab, where technicians make your new eyeglasses or contact lenses (if needed). For some contact lenses, you can get them at the office the same day or order them. You’re able to choose the frames for your glasses.

What happens after receiving contacts and glasses?

After you receive glasses or contacts, your Optic Gallery South Meadows provider ensures they fit appropriately and perfect your vision. Your provider completes vision testing while you wear your new lenses and examines your eyes once again. It’s important to properly care for your contacts and glasses and attend all eye exams as scheduled.
