What to expect during a contact lens exam
Comfortable, clear vision with contact lenses begins with the right exam. Our eye doctors use advanced testing and personalized fittings to make sure your lenses match your eyes, your lifestyle, and your long-term vision health.
Contact Lens Exams Go Beyond Standard Eye Exams
A contact lens exam includes everything in a regular eye exam plus specialized testing to ensure safe lens wear. We measure the curve and surface of your cornea, evaluate tear film quality, and check eye health to determine which lenses will provide comfort and clarity all day.
The Steps in a Contact Lens Exam at EyeSite Vision Center Hoboken
Your exam is tailored to you and may include:
-
Corneal measurements to identify the proper lens size and shape.
-
Tear film evaluation to confirm your eyes can support contacts.
-
Trial lens fitting to check real-world comfort and vision quality.
-
Insertion and removal training for first-time wearers, plus care instructions.
