Our contact lens services and fittings aim to offer you the perfect blend of comfort, convenience, and clear vision. Whether you're a first-time wearer or seeking an update to your current prescription, our Seymour team will guide you.
Contact Lens Exams and Fittings in Seymour
Our optometrists conduct a thorough eye examination to assess your overall eye health and determine the precise prescription needed. This step is crucial for identifying conditions that could affect contact lens wear, such as dry eyes or astigmatism.
Finding Your Ideal Contact Lens Fit
Following the eye health assessment, we proceed to the fitting process, which involves measuring the curvature and diameter of your eyes to find the perfect lens fit. We consider factors like lens material, type (soft or rigid, daily wear or extended wear), and usage pattern to recommend the best options.
Proper Lens Care and Follow-Ups
Once the ideal lenses are selected, we provide personalized instructions on correctly inserting, removing, and caring for your lenses, ensuring long-term comfort and maintaining eye health. Follow-up visits help monitor your lenses and allow us to make necessary adjustments.

Simplify Vision: Daily Disposable Contacts
Daily disposable contact lenses are worn once and discarded, eliminating the need for a nightly cleaning routine and offering a fresh, new pair daily. This significantly reduces the risk of eye infections and complications associated with lens care and handling. Daily disposables are available in various types, including toric contact lenses for individuals with astigmatism and options for dry eyes, specially formulated to provide extra hydration and comfort.
Bi-Weekly and Monthly Contact Lenses
Bi-weekly and monthly contact lenses are for extended use, offering wearers a practical and cost-effective solution for vision correction. Unlike daily disposables, you wear these lenses longer. You replace bi-weekly lenses every two weeks, but you can wear monthly lenses for an entire month. Both types require regular cleaning and proper storage to maintain eye health and lens integrity. These lenses are available in various prescriptions.
Colored Contacts for Every Preference
Colored contact lenses offer various choices and styles, ranging from gentle color boosts to scleral and convenient daily options. Wearers can personalize their appearance, with and without vision correction prescriptions, making them a fun and functional choice for anyone looking to add a touch of color to their life.
Contacts For Vision at Every Distance
Bifocal and multifocal contact lenses address presbyopia, allowing wearers to see clearly at multiple distances without switching between glasses. Bifocal contacts typically have two distinct lens powers — one for distance and one for close-up tasks. Multifocal contacts work on a similar principle but offer a gradual transition between multiple lens powers, mimicking the eye's natural focusing ability. Wearers enjoy freedom from reading glasses and the overall visual flexibility to perform various activities, making bifocal and multifocal lenses an excellent choice for those experiencing age-related vision changes.
Hard-To-Fit Contact Lenses in Seymour
Contact lenses for hard-to-fit eyes are for individuals who find wearing standard contact lenses challenging due to various eye conditions. These conditions include:
- Severe dry eyes
- Keratoconus (where the cornea bulges outward)
- Astigmatism
- Presbyopia
- Post-surgical eye changes
Hard-to-fit contact lenses come in several types, each tailored to address specific issues and improve comfort and vision quality. For example, scleral lenses vault over the entire corneal surface, making them ideal for keratoconus and dry eye. Toric lenses correct astigmatism by offering different refractive powers on the vertical and horizontal orientations.
These specialized lenses ensure even those with complex vision problems can enjoy the benefits of contact lens wear, providing a level of customization and comfort that standard lenses cannot offer.
Orthokeratology: Clear Vision Overnight
Orthokeratology (ortho-k) is a non-surgical vision correction method that temporarily reshapes the cornea to correct myopia (nearsightedness) and astigmatism. This innovative process involves wearing specially designed rigid gas-permeable contact lenses overnight, gently flattening the cornea while sleeping. Upon waking and removing the lenses, users can experience clear vision without needing glasses or contact lenses. Ortho-k is particularly beneficial for individuals looking to correct their vision without undergoing LASIK surgery, as well as children and adults who wish to slow the progression of myopia.
