What is a Contact Lens Exam? 

While a comprehensive eye exam checks the overall health of your eyes and your vision, a contact lens exam specifically evaluates your eyes to determine if you are a good candidate to wear contact lenses. 

Contact lens exams are typically conducted in addition to a comprehensive eye exam, as your doctor will perform special tests to determine your contact lens prescription and proper fit. If you wear contact lenses or would like to wear contact lenses, please let us know when you schedule your appointment as your contact lens exam will be conducted in addition to the comprehensive eye exam.  

One size does not fit all when it comes to contact lenses. 

During your contact lens examination at Nova Vision Center, your doctor will measure the curvature of your cornea, the front surface of your eye. This measurement will help them select the best type and size of contact for you; for instance, if you have astigmatism, then you may need to wear a special type of contact lens called a toric lens. They may also check your pupil or iris size and observe the quality of your tears with a tear film evaluation to ensure you have sufficient tears to keep the contact lenses moist and comfortable. 

Your Contact Lens Prescription 

Depending on your history with the contact lens prescribed to you, you may be asked to come back to Nova Vision Center for a follow-up exam so that your doctor can check how the contact lens fits on your eye, whether you are comfortable in your contact lenses, and if your vision is clear.
