Contact lenses
Contact lenses
Fittings and follow-up for people who prefer contact lenses to glasses.
Your prescription is yours. We give you a copy after your exam and fitting, and you can fill it anywhere. That includes your contact lens prescription, which we give you when your fitting is complete. A contact lens exam is separate from a vision therapy evaluation, and we can do both on one visit if you ask.
A fitting includes
An exam of the eye's surface and a measurement of its shape
Trial lenses to wear before you decide
A lesson in putting lenses in, taking them out and cleaning them
A follow-up visit to check the fit
Billing and what to bring
How it is billed
A contact lens fitting is usually billed apart from the eye exam. Some vision plans pay part of it, and some do not. We check before your visit and give you a written estimate if you pay yourself.
How fees workWhat to bring
Current glasses and contact lenses
Vision and medical insurance cards
A list of any eye drops or medicines you or your child use
Last year's report card or a note from school, if reading is the concern
