Comprehensive Contact Lens Exams

The Foundation for Perfect Fit

Before you start using contact lenses, it's crucial to have a thorough contact lens exam. At Buena Vista Optical, we believe a successful contact lens experience begins with an eye examination. Our optometrists will:

Evaluate Your Eye Health

We will look for pre-existing conditions that might make wearing contact lenses uncomfortable.

Determine Your Vision Prescription

We will update your vision prescription to ensure your contact lenses offer comfortable vision.

Discuss Your Lifestyle and Needs

Understanding your lifestyle and vision needs is crucial in choosing the right contact lenses. Whether you need multifocal lenses, daily disposables, toric lenses for astigmatism, or any other type, our optometrists will tailor their recommendations to fit your unique requirements.

Choosing the Perfect Contact Lenses

Daily vs. Monthly Contact Lenses

Are you torn between daily and monthly contact lenses? Let us guide you through the decision-making process. Our experts explain the main differences between these two options:

Cost Considerations

You may be wondering if daily and monthly lenses cost the same. While the expenses can be comparable, it's important to note that dailies may become pricier if you use them more frequently. Monthly lenses come with the added cost of cleaning solutions for sterilizing and storing your lenses.

Exploring Daily Contact Lenses

Daily disposable contact lenses offer exceptional comfort and wearability. With the convenience of a fresh pair daily, you can enjoy clear vision without the hassle of storage and cleaning. Say goodbye to the risk of calcium or hairspray deposits and reduce the chances of contact lens-related eye infections.

Embracing Monthly and Bi-Weekly Contact Lenses

Monthly and bi-weekly disposable contact lenses are known for their durability and cost-effectiveness. While they require daily cleaning and proper storage, they are excellent extended-wear options.

Matching Your Prescription

Not all contact lenses are suitable for every prescription. Your vision correction needs are a crucial factor in selecting the right lenses. Monthly lenses, which are more rigid and offer clear vision at higher magnifications, are an excellent choice for complex prescriptions such as toric (astigmatism) or multifocal needs.

Contacts For Hard-To-Fit, Sensitive Eyes

Finding the right contact lenses for comfort is essential if you have sensitive eyes. Dailies and monthlies offer different characteristics, and our experienced optometrists will evaluate your eyes to recommend the best lens composition for your individual needs.

Lifestyle and Lens Choice

Your daily activities play a significant role in choosing between daily and monthly lenses. Whether you're a sports enthusiast, an office worker, or someone with an active lifestyle, our experts can help you determine the ideal lens type for your needs.

Making the Final Choice

Ultimately, the choice between daily and monthly lenses is personal. It depends on your lifestyle, preferences, and vision requirements. Buena Vista Optical is here to assist you in making an informed decision. Contact us today to schedule a contact lens fitting and explore all our contact lens services.

The Contact Lens Fitting Process

Customizing Your Lens Fit

One size does not fit all when it comes to contact lenses. Buena Vista Optical's contact lens fitting process is suited to your unique needs. Our optometrists will take precise measurements to ensure your lenses fit comfortably and provide clear vision, measuring your corneal curvature, iris, pupil size, tear film evaluation, etc.

After choosing the ideal lenses, we let you try them on to confirm the fit and comfort and provide follow-up care.

How To Prevent Contact Lens Overuse

Stick to the 18-Hour-Per-Week Rule: If you wear your contacts for less than 18 hours a week, you're at a lower risk of overuse.
Protect Your Vision with Spare Glasses: Reduce the risk of contact lens overuse by incorporating spare glasses into your routine.
Never Sleep With Your Contacts: Avoid overnight wear, as it denies essential oxygen and hydration to your eyes.

Proper Contact Lens Care and Hygiene

Wash your hands thoroughly
Use cleaning solutions recommended by our eye doctors.
Avoid using water or saliva on your lenses
Replace your lenses as prescribed
Don't ignore your lens replacement schedule.
