Types of contacts lens services we offer:

Regular or disposable soft contact lenses are the prevailing choice for vision correction, commonly worn daily. Their convenience and comfort make them a popular option among users seeking a practical solution for refractive errors. These lenses offer consistent visual acuity and are replaced at regular intervals to ensure optimal eye health.
Multifocal, bifocal, and presbyopic contact lenses offer a versatile solution, catering to both distant and close-up visual requirements, making them suitable for individuals needing comprehensive vision correction for various tasks.
Rigid gas permeable contact lenses (RGP) are recommended for individuals with irregular corneas, a situation where traditional glasses or soft contact lenses fall short in providing satisfactory vision. RGP lenses are an optimal choice, enhancing visual acuity and addressing unique eye conditions.
Scleral contact lenses are a vital option for those dealing with challenges like Keratoconus, Dry eye, and ocular surface issues such as Stevens-Johnson Syndrome (SJS). These lenses offer relief to individuals who struggle with daily activities due to incapacitating symptoms, allowing improved comfort even in challenging conditions.
