Contact Lens Exams

See Clearly and Comfortably in Contact Lenses

At Downtown Eyes, our doctors specialize in fitting soft lenses, RGP lenses, custom scleral lenses, and Paragon CRT® lenses. Advancements in contact lens technology now offer highly customized solutions for almost every vision need.

Soft contact lenses offer exceptional comfort and convenience, making them a popular choice for those seeking clear, effortless vision. Soft lenses are available for a variety of vision needs, including Distance, Monovision, Multifocal, and Astigmatism correction, and are easy to adapt to- making them a great option for first-time contact lens wearers.

RGP (Rigid Gas Permeable) contact lenses are less flexible than soft lenses but provide clear vision and durability. They maintain their shape on the eye, which can be beneficial for people with astigmatism or irregular corneas. However, they can take some time to get used to and may require more care and cleaning than soft lenses.

Custom scleral contact lenses are designed to provide a highly comfortable and precise fit for those with unique or complex vision needs, such as irregular corneas, keratoconus, or severe dry eye. These larger, hard lenses sit on the white part of the eye and can offer improved vision for those with complex conditions. Custom scleral lenses are tailored to your specific eye shape, offering a personalized solution for optimal vision and comfort.

Paragon CRT (Corneal Refractive Therapy) orthokeratology contacts are specially designed to gently reshape the cornea while you sleep, providing clear vision during the day without the need for glasses or regular contact lenses. These overnight wear lenses are a non-surgical option for people with nearsightedness and mild astigmatism, offering a convenient way to improve vision without the need for daytime correction. The treatment is reversible and can be a good option for those looking to reduce dependence on daily eyewear.
