A More Detailed Exam Than a Standard Vision Exam

Contact lenses sit directly on the eye, so fit and comfort matter as much as clarity. During your contact lens exam, we evaluate your vision needs and eye health, then recommend lens designs that support stable vision and healthy wear. If you’ve dealt with dryness, fluctuating vision, or lenses that feel uncomfortable by mid-day, especially during screen-heavy workdays, we’ll take a closer look and help you explore better options.

To help your visit go smoothly, bring your current glasses and any contact lens details you have (brand, boxes, or prescription). Be ready to share how long you wear lenses each day and any discomfort you notice, so we can match the recommendation to your real-life use.

Contact Lens Options We Fit at Hodes Vision Optometry

Our practice offers a wide range of lens types based on your prescription and lifestyle, including soft contact lenses, toric lenses for astigmatism, and multifocal contact lenses for near and distance vision. We also provide rigid gas-permeable lenses, including multifocal RGP options, for patients who need greater clarity customization.

You may be a good candidate for an updated contact lens fitting if you’ve noticed:

  • Lenses that feel dry or irritated by the afternoon
  • Vision that fluctuates, especially on screens
  • Frequent blinking or rubbing to “clear” your vision
  • Discomfort that makes you wear contacts less often than you want

Custom Fittings For Complex Prescriptions

When standard contacts aren’t enough, specialty lenses can make a meaningful difference in clarity and stability.

We provide scleral lens fittings and keratoconus contact lens management for patients who need advanced support for clearer vision and improved comfort.
