Contact lenses are a popular option for vision correction. However, before you begin wearing contacts, you'll need a contact lens exam. The good news is that you can get your contact lens exam from “eye doctor near me” Eye 1st Vision Center, your optometrist in Sandy Spring, GA.
A contact lens exam is an exam specifically to see if you are a good candidate for contacts and to fit you for them. An optometrist on our team will measure things like your tear film and specific parts of your eye so you can get the best results from your contact lenses.
During your exam, you'll have a consultation with the optometrist. This is your chance to ask any questions you may have. We may discuss your lifestyle, preferences, and goals for wearing contacts. We will also explain the different types of contacts and help you choose the type that's right for you.
An optometrist on our team will also measure several parts of your eye. This is necessary because the contacts that you wear need to be fitted for your eyes specifically. Ill-fitted contacts can cause significant problems with your eye health and we want to help you avoid that.
Contacts can lead to or worsen dry eye so an optometrist on our team may perform a tear film evaluation. This checks the quality and quantity of your tears and lets the eye doctor know if you are prone to dry eye. If dry eye is a concern, you can still wear contacts. Some types are designed for managing dry eye and help keep your eyes moisturized.
