Contact Lens Exams and Fittings in Millville

Millville Contact Lenses

Did you know that a routine eye exam is not the same as a contact lens exam? For contact lens wearers, a contact lens exam is necessary to ensure the lenses are fitting both eyes properly and that the health of the eyes is not harmed by the contact lenses. If you wear or want Millville contact lenses, you will need a contact lens exam in addition to comprehensive eye exam.

At Enterprise Optometry Group, we will perform special tests during a contact lens exam to evaluate your vision with contacts. One test, for example, will measure your eye surface to determine what size and type of contacts are best for you. With the results of the tests, our eye doctor can provide a contact lens prescription that is the right fit for your eyes. Once your exam is complete, it is time to decide which type of Millville contact lenses offered at our optical store are best for you. Choosing the contact lenses that are right for you depends on your vision and comfort. Rigid or hard contact lenses, also called gas-permeable lenses, are a shrinking segment of the industry, but our eye doctors still have a large number of patients who wear them. Soft contact lenses are the most frequently prescribed and purchased at our optometry office. This is due to their tremendous comfort, and are now even available for patients with astigmatism and dry eyes. Once you’ve decided between hard or soft lenses, however, there still are many different types to choose from. There are daily wear lenses, extended wear lenses, and disposable lenses. Color-changing lenses which, as the name suggests, change the color of your iris, are also an option, even if vision correction is not required.

At Enterprise Optometry Group, we have been fitting specialty contact lenses for years and have seen some incredible changes in that time. It is very important that your Millville contact lenses are fitted correctly based on your prescription, eye shape, and specific needs as an improper fitting or prescription of contacts can damage the health of the eyes.
