Contactology/Contact Lenses

The Contact Lens Service evaluates and fits patients of all ages using the latest in contact lens technology and information, often before it has even been introduced in the general eye practitioner's office. The Directors of the service are national leaders in the contact lens field and participate in major national studies on advances in contact lenses.

Contact lenses allow normal vision for people with a wide range of medical conditions. This includes patients who have:

  • Keratoconus
  • Had complex cataract surgery
  • Has corneal transplantations
  • Irregular or scarred corneas.

Infants and young children often have various visual conditions that require a contact lens so that their vision system can develop normally. We offer every type of contact lens, including:

  • Hard
  • Gas-permeable
  • Daily-wear soft
  • Extended-wear contact lenses
  • Colored lenses
  • Disposable lenses
  • Cosmetic lenses (to change eye color)
  • Specialized keratoconus lenses
