Protecting Your Eyes & Our Environment

We are one of 100 select sites chosen in Canada as distinguished participants in the Bausch + Lomb contact lens recycling program. Through this initiative, we contribute to reducing the environmental impact of contact lens waste. Our commitment extends further with CooperVision’s plastic offset program, aligning with efforts to curb plastic waste within the eyecare industry.

What to Expect During Your Contact Lens Exam Visit

It can be comforting to know what will happen in your appointment. Let’s take a look at some of the components of a contact lens exam and fitting.

Our team will conduct a thorough assessment to check if your eyes are healthy and ready for contact lens wear.

Based on the information gathered from our assessment, we’ll recommend a contact lens suited for your unique eye health and lifestyle.

This type of testing helps make sure that your prescription is accurate and that you achieve optimal vision correction.

Our commitment to your eye health doesn’t end after your fitting; we schedule follow-up appointments to monitor your comfort, vision, and overall eye health. 

To get the right fit, we’ll measure the curvature of your cornea using modern diagnostic technology. 

Once we’ve selected the right type of contact lenses, we’ll proceed with a trial fitting, which involves placing the lenses on your eyes to assess their fit and comfort.

Our team will provide you with thorough education on proper lens care, hygiene, and maintenance so you get the most out of every lens.

Enhancing Vision with Specialty Lenses

When standard contact lenses don’t suffice, we offer an array of specialty lenses designed to address specific visual challenges and conditions. 

Individuals dealing with keratoconus require unique optical solutions. Keratoconus lenses are designed to fit the irregular corneal shape characteristic of this condition. These lenses can help provide improved vision and a comfortable fit, addressing the challenges posed by keratoconus.

Experience enhanced visual clarity, especially in low-light conditions, with aspheric lenses. These lenses are engineered to minimize distortions and provide sharper vision across a wider range of lighting scenarios, helping you see the world with precision.

Toric lenses are tailored for those with astigmatism. These lenses have varying powers in different meridians, counteracting the irregular curvature of the cornea that causes astigmatism.

Say farewell to the hassle of switching between reading glasses and regular contacts. Multifocal lenses offer seamless transitions between near and distant vision, catering to the needs of individuals who require both types of correction.

Scleral lenses offer comfort and improved vision for conditions like dry eyes, keratoconus, and irregular corneas. These larger lenses vault over the cornea, providing a protective cushion of tears and delivering clarity in challenging cases.

Specialty Contact Lenses in Central Alberta 

We offer a diverse range of contact lens brands to cater to different preferences and prescriptions. From daily disposables to extended wear options, we’re here to guide you through the selection process, taking into account comfort, lifestyle, and visual requirements.
