Contact Lenses: Options for Every Vision Need
At Family Vision, with locations in Anderson, Williamston, and Clemson, SC, our team is committed to helping patients achieve clear, comfortable vision with contact lenses. Whether you’re new to contact lenses or have specific vision challenges, Family Vision offers a wide range of options to meet your needs. Through comprehensive eye exams and expert guidance, doctors and staff ensure that every patient receives the best possible solution for their vision correction.
Contact Lenses for Most Patients
Contact lenses are available for a variety of vision needs, including toric lenses for astigmatism, multifocal lenses for presbyopia, and even continuous wear or colored lenses. Daily disposable lenses are a convenient option for those seeking low-maintenance solutions, while rigid gas permeable (RGP) and scleral lenses are ideal for patients with more complex vision requirements.
New advancements in contact lens technology, such as the Biofinity Toric Multifocal by Cooper and Ultra for Astigmatism for Presbyopia by Bausch and Lomb, now allow patients with astigmatism and presbyopia to enjoy clear vision at both distance and near. These innovations make contact lenses a viable option for more patients than ever before.
Hard-to-Fit Contact Lenses
While contact lenses are a great solution for many, some patients face challenges due to specific eye conditions. Conditions such as astigmatism, dry eyes, giant papillary conjunctivitis (GPC), keratoconus, and presbyopia can make wearing standard contact lenses difficult. However, these conditions don’t rule out contact lenses altogether.
For example, toric lenses are designed to correct astigmatism by aligning with the eye’s unique curvature, while gas permeable lenses can reduce protein buildup for patients with GPC or keratoconus. Multifocal and monovision lenses are excellent options for presbyopia, and medicated eye drops or punctual occlusion can help alleviate dry eye symptoms, making contact lenses more comfortable to wear.
Solutions for Every Patient
At Family Vision, we specialize in finding solutions for patients with hard-to-fit eyes. Our team works closely with each patient to determine the best lens type and fit for their specific condition. Whether you need custom lenses for astigmatism, relief from dry eyes, or advanced lenses for presbyopia, we have the expertise and technology to help.
