What to Expect
Your Eye Exam and Contact Lens Fitting
to get contact lenses, you need to see an Eye Care Professional (ophthalmologist or optometrist) to
have your eyes examined and get a prescription. A contact lens fitting takes a little longer than a regular eye exam, so you
need to reserve enough time – plan to spend about 90 minutes at your Eye Care Professional’s office. When you
make your appointment, be sure to let the office know that you need a contact lens fitting, not just a regular eye exam.
Here’s what you can expect at your exam and fitting:
- CONSULTATION – Why do you want contact lenses? How do you plan to use them? And what do you want them to do for you?
- EXAMINATION – A complete evaluation of your eye health and vision.
- CONTACT LENS FITTING – Measuring your eye surface to evaluate vision, fit and comfort – plus trying on lenses.
- CONTACT LENS INSTRUCTION – Learning how to handle and care for your lenses, including inserting, removing, cleaning, and storing.
- GETTING YOUR LENSES – Taking your lenses (and care products) home.
- FOLLOW-UP – Returning in one to two weeks so your Eye Care Professional can see how you’re doing with your lenses
How to Wear Contacts: Basic Guidelines and Quick Tips
The first rule of successful contact lens wear is to follow your eye care professional’s directions.
When you get your contact lenses, your eye care professional or a staff member will teach you all about cleaning, disinfecting,
storing and replacing your lenses according to the prescribed schedule. While this may sound complicated at first, these are
simple processes and very easy to learn. Plus, there are many multi-purpose contact lens solutions that clean and disinfect
in one step. The key is to get in the habit of caring for your lenses conscientiously. Or, if you choose 1•DAY ACUVUEŽ, then you have the freedom from solutions, cleaning and storing your lenses.
To help you develop good habits, we’ve outlined the basics:
Wearing lenses can be simple and easy. To feel comfortable, look terrific and stay healthy, just follow the rules!
