Contact Lens fitting is a separate visit from the exam, in which special measurements are taken in order to decide which type of contact lens will work best. The doctor will select the lenses and place them on eye(s) to examine the fit. Several different lenses may be attempted before the doctor reaches a satisfactory fit. For a new contact lens wearer, a training session of "insertion & removal" may be scheduled on the same day following a fitting exam. It takes approximately 2 hours to accomplish the consecutive appointments.
Contact lenses are considered to be a "medical device" and therefore, require regular follow-up appointments to ensure that the eye health is not negatively affected by contact lens wear.
Mandated by The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) under Contact Lens Consumers Act (FCLCA), contact lens prescriptions are valid for one year from the issue date. We recommend our contact lens patient be seen yearly, but, alternating with routine exam and yearly contact lens exam.
