Many people aren't aware that contact lenses require a separate test from your regular prescription. Whether you are a new wearer or a current contact lens user, extra calculations and measurements are needed to ensure that the fit is accurate for your eyes and vision requirements. Your lens must also be properly selected for your lifestyle needs. Although many of our patients wear contact lenses as their primary eyewear choice, we also have a large percentage of patients who are task-specific wearers. Prescriptions are different for contact lenses than glasses and can often be manipulated to be worn for specific activities. For instance, a computer technician may wear a pair of computer-progressive glasses in order to work with intermediate distances on a daily basis, but prefers to wear single vision daily lenses when he/she plays hockey twice a week for farther distances. It is important for your eye care professional to assess your eyes reaction to new and current materials of your contact lens. Since this foreign object can be sitting in your eye for up to 8 hours or more, it is your Optometrists job to make sure that your eye can remain tolerant of the percentage of materials and water content in your prescribed contact lens brand. This also applies to solution use. Nuvo's team of professionals will make sure that we find the proper fit for you and upkeep your contact lens care.
