If you are thinking about getting contact lenses for the first time, or need to reorder your contact lenses, you will want to visit us at Vista Vision Optical. At our optical store, our customers are able to either get a new prescription for Bushwick contact lenses, or simply order contact lenses with their current contact lens prescription.
It is very important that Bushwick contact lenses fit your eyes precisely. For this reason, fitting information is included as part of your contact lens prescription. At our practice, patients are also able to get a contact lens exam and fitting from our top-notch optometrist, Dr. David Nathanson. During a contact lens exam and fitting your eyes will be screened for many different types of eye diseases and disorders. Among the eye diseases that your eyes will be screened for are: cataracts; glaucoma; macular degeneration; diabetic retinopathy; dry eye; retinal tears; and other problems of the cornea, macula, and retina. In order to wear Bushwick contact lenses safely, it is important that your eyes are healthy as well.
During a contact lens exam, measurements of the curvature of your cornea, and the size of your iris will also be taken so that your new contact lenses will be able to fit your eyes just right. If contact lenses do not fit your eyes correctly, damage can be done to the cornea of your eye. If this type of problem persists, your eye can experience permanent damage. At our contact lens exam, your eyes will be thoroughly examined for any type of refractive error including nearsightedness, farsightedness, or astigmatism. Today, even patients with dry eye or astigmatism can have their vision comfortably and accurately corrected using contact lenses. If you tried contact lenses several years back, but could not successfully wear them, you may want to try them again today, as contact lenses have been greatly improved over the past five years. Patients are able to buy both soft contact lenses and hard contacts at our store. Our optometrist will help determine the exact type of Bushwick contact lenses which will work best for you depending on your individual eye care needs, preferences, and lifestyle. Soft contact lenses come in several different styles. Soft contacts can be daily wear, lasting up to 18 hours before they are removed at night; extended wear contacts to be worn overnight for several days; disposable contacts which are worn once and then discarded; and color changing contacts which make it appear as of the color of your eyes have changed.
