Contact Lens Exam, Lakeport, CA

Are you considering switching from glasses to contact lenses? The first step in the process is to schedule a contact lens exam in Lakeport, California at Konocti View Optometry. During your contact lens exam, our eye doctor will determine your prescription and ensure that contact lenses are a safe and suitable option for you.

If you’ve been told in the past that you can’t wear contacts, it may be time to try again! Whether you have high astigmatism, keratoconus, or presbyopia (loss of clear close-up vision due to age-related changes), we have solutions that can help improve your quality of life.

Why do I need a contact lens exam?

A contact lens exam is not the same as a comprehensive eye exam. While a comprehensive eye exam assesses your overall eye health and vision, a contact lens exam specifically evaluates your eyes for contact lens wear. Even if you’ve been wearing contact lenses for years without any issues, it’s still important to schedule regular contact lens exams. Your eyes or prescription can change over time without you noticing. Our eye doctor at Konocti View Optometry can detect any subtle changes early on and make adjustments to keep your eyes healthy and your vision clear.

For new wearers, these exams ensure that your lenses fit correctly and are comfortable. Improperly fitted contacts can lead to discomfort, blurry vision, and even damage to the surface of your eye. We use a special device called a corneal topographer (also known as corneal mapping) to create a detailed map of the clear front window of your eye (the cornea). We will also measure your pupil and iris. These measurements are crucial in ensuring your contact lenses fit properly and provide clear vision. We will also show you how to insert, remove, and take care of your contact lenses to maintain optimal eye health.
