What to Expect During Your Contact Lens Exam
A contact lens exam checks your vision and helps find lenses that fit comfortably and work well for your eyes. During your visit, you can expect:
- Comprehensive eye assessment: Checking your vision, prescription, and overall eye health
- Lens selection & trial: Finding the best lenses for your eyes and lifestyle
- Fitting & measurements: Using corneal topography for a precise and comfortable fit
- Instruction & care guidance: Hands-on training for inserting, removing, and caring for your lenses
- Follow-up plan: Scheduling check-ins to monitor comfort and eye health
Scleral Lenses
Scleral lenses are large-diameter rigid lenses that vault over the cornea and rest on the sclera (the white part of the eye). They are ideal for:
- Irregular corneas
- Keratoconus
- Post-surgery eyes
These lenses provide exceptional comfort and stable, clear vision by creating a smooth optical surface over the cornea. Scleral lenses also retain moisture, making them a great option for patients with dry or sensitive eyes.
RGP (Rigid Gas Permeable) Lenses
RGP lenses are smaller rigid lenses that sit directly on the cornea. They are designed for:
- High prescriptions
- Astigmatism
- Eyes that require sharper, more precise vision correction
RGP lenses offer crisp, stable vision and are highly durable. With proper care and fitting, they provide excellent long-term vision performance and comfort.
Specialty Lens Fittings: RGP & Scleral Lenses
For patients with unique vision needs or irregular corneas, Summit Eyecare Centre offers custom RGP (rigid gas permeable) and scleral lens fittings. These specialty lenses provide superior vision correction for conditions that cannot be fully addressed with standard soft lenses.
Using corneal topography, we create lenses that fit precisely and comfortably while providing clear, stable vision throughout the day.
Whether you’re exploring RGPs or sclerals for the first time or updating an existing fit, our team provides expert guidance and follow-up care.
Caring for Your Contact Lenses
To maintain healthy eyes and prolong the life of your lenses, follow these guidelines:
- Wash your hands before handling lenses
- Clean and disinfect lenses as recommended
- Replace lenses on schedule
- Avoid sleeping in lenses unless prescribed
- Store lenses in a clean, dry case
- Avoid sharing lenses
- Visit your optometrist regularly for follow-ups
Proper care can help prevent infections and keep your lenses performing as they should.
