Custom Gas Permeable Contacts and Corneal Refractive Therapy Lenses
Have you been told you are a "tough fit"?
The doctors at Vision Care Specialists evaluate, fit, and prescribe a large selection of soft disposable and rigid gas permeable (RGP) contact lenses and aren't afraid to take on those 'hard to fit" cases. Soft contact lenses include daily wear, two week, and monthly disposable contacts. One of the recent advances in lens material technology is the introduction of silicone-hydra gel lenses. These lenses offer more water contact and oxygen permeability than other disposable contacts. This allows extended wear time (in some cases lenses are FDA approved for overnight wear), with greater comfort. Customized RGP lenses offer the best vision for patients with complex prescriptions. RGP lenses are also often prescribed to correct vision for patients who have keratoconus, a condition where the cornea becomes especially steep corneas."My doctor is knowledgeable in contact selection. The staff is knowledgeable about contact rebates." - C.B.
Corneal Refractive Therapy
CRT is an option that allows patients to wear contact lenses at night and see without wearing either glasses or contacts during the day. The lenses used for CRT are high water contact high oxygen permeability rigid lenses. The CRT lenses actually shape the surface of the cornea during sleep. This re-shaping is temporary, but after a few nights of wearing the lenses daytime vision will improve. CRT is especially beneficial to children and teenagers with rapidly increasing myopia and can slow down the progression and limit the severity of myopia over time. CRT is limited to a rage of prescriptions; Contact us today for more information on all your options for contact lens wear!Please fix these first
