| There are many new contacts that are both convenient and healthy for your eyes. Spherical contact lenses correct nearsightedness or farsightedness. Toric contact lenses correct astigmatism, which is an irregularity in the shape of the cornea. Multifocal contact lenses are like bifocal glasses in that they correct blurriness at both distance and near. These are an especially popular choice for adults who would normally have to wear reading glasses. Synergeyes lenses are unique contact lenses that are made of both a soft and hard contact lens and are a healthy option for some contact lens wearers. Daily disposable contact lenses are an increasingly popular choice for contact wearers of all ages. For children, daily contacts are easy to care for because they are thrown away every night. For adults, daily lenses help with dry eyes by providing increased lubrication and comfort.
One of the newest technologies on the market today is CRT lenses. CRT contact lenses are hard contacts that are worn overnight, reshaping the cornea, so that you can be contact lens and glasses free during the day. The procedure is effective for patients that are nearsighted without a significant amount of astigmatism. If you are seeking an alternative to corrective surgery and want a reversible procedure, ask us about CRT lenses. |

Contact lenses can be a great option for the vision needs of all age groups! We generally begin recommending contact lenses for children around 10 years old, but we will certainly fit motivated patients under this age. If you are a parent considering contact lenses for your child, consider the following as a good rule of thumb on whether or not he/she is ready: If your child is brushing his/her teeth each day without a reminder, then he/she is likely to be responsible enough for the proper wear and care of contact lenses. | |||||||||||||||||||||||
