| Contact Lens Examination |
At Brilliant Eye
Care, we strive to meet all of your eye and vision care needs.
Corrective lens evaluations and prescription management are
provided by our optometrist in Riverview. After a comprehensive
eye and vision evaluation, your eye doctor will discuss the
variety of contact lens options with you to select the type that
best fits your vision needs and lifestyle. If you suffer from
dry eye, allergies, or recurring eye infections, speak with our
staff to determine whether contact lenses are right for you.
Evaluation
Prior to prescribing contact lenses, your
optometrist will determine what level of vision correction you require.
Refractive error (commonly known as nearsightedness,
farsightedness, or astigmatism depending on the error) is
evaluated by measuring how the eyes focus when a series of
different lenses are placed in front of them. An optometrist may
use either a phoropter or an automated instrument to take these
measurements. To schedule an appointment for a vision evaluation
with our Riverview optometrist, call (410) 295-3010 today.
Corrective Lenses
After determining the level of
refractive error, your doctor will work with you to determine whether
contact lenses or glasses are best for your lifestyle. If you
suffer from certain conditions, such as dry eye or allergies,
glasses may be the most comfortable corrective solution. Contact
lenses are available in either soft or rigid gas permeable form.
Contact lenses need to be changed daily, weekly, bi-weekly, or
monthly, depending on what type of lens you select. Specialized
contact lenses, such as bifocal contact lenses, are also
available for patients with special eye conditions. Call us at
(410) 295-3010 if you are interested in learning if contact
lenses are a good fit for you.
Cosmetic Lenses
Advances in contact lens technology have created great options
for cosmetic and prosthetic lenses. Custom contact lenses can be
created to camouflage any color variation or irregularity and
produce a natural eye color. Cosmetic lenses are also available
to transform your eye color. Call us at (410) 295-3010 and speak
to our knowledgeable staff if you are interested in modifying or
changing your eye color with contact lenses. |
