See well without glasses
Contact lenses offer a full field of view without frames getting in the way, and are a great option for sports or for people who are not comfortable with glasses.
A proper fitting requires measuring the curvature of your cornea, checking the quality of your tears and choosing the right type of lens for your eyes. This makes them more comfortable and helps prevent complications such as irritation or infections.

Frequently asked questions
Can anyone wear contact lenses?
Most people can, but first the cornea and tear film are checked. With severe dry eye, allergies or some corneal conditions, a special lens may be needed or the problem may need treatment first.
Do they work for astigmatism?
Yes. Toric lenses are designed to correct it.
Can I wear them if I have keratoconus?
In many cases, rigid or specialty lenses give better vision than glasses for patients with keratoconus. If keratoconus is progressing, crosslinking may also be recommended.
What should I do if my eye turns red?
Remove the lens right away and do not wear it again until an ophthalmologist examines you, especially if you have pain, light sensitivity or blurry vision: it could be an infection.
