Finding the right contact lenses is not always simple. For some patients, standard soft lenses or traditional gas permeable lenses do not provide the comfort, stability, or vision they need. At Edison Eye Care, we often recommend scleral lenses for hard-to-fit eyes because they can offer a more customized solution for patients dealing with complex vision needs.

Myopia, commonly known as nearsightedness, is becoming increasingly common in children. While it may seem like a simple issue corrected with glasses, myopia is actually a progressive eye condition that can worsen over time if left unmanaged. Early detection plays a critical role in protecting your child’s vision, eye health, and long-term quality of life.

When most people think of eye exams, they imagine updating their glasses prescription. But a comprehensive eye exam goes far beyond checking how clearly you can see. These thorough evaluations give eye doctors a closer look at the overall health of your eyes, and often provide an early warning system for diseases that may not show obvious symptoms at first.

For many people who want crisp vision without wearing glasses, contact lenses are an excellent solution. When considering the switch, comfort is often the biggest concern for new wearers. However, achieving comfort depends on several factors, including the type of lenses you wear, a proper contact lens exam and fitting, and allowing time for adaptation.
