A WIDE SELECTION OF CONTACT LENSES IN Burnsville, North Carolina

These include disposable soft contact, bifocal/multifocal, toric, and coloured lenses. Whether you wear daily, weekly or monthly disposables, or conventional (vial) lenses, check out our selection of lenses at Aldridge Eye in Burnsville. Our goal is to fit you with contact lenses that give clear and comfortable vision.

Establishing a Good Contact Lens Fit

It starts with a thorough eye exam to ensure the most up-to-date prescription and rule out any  pre-existing conditions that could interfere with contact lens wear.

We will determine the best fitting lens based on your lifestyle needs and the shape and health of your eye. In most cases, you’ll have the opportunity to try lenses on the same day as your exam. You can even go home with a few samples before making a final decision.

Follow up fittings

After your initial fitting, we schedule follow-up visits to evaluate comfort, vision, and overall performance of your contact lenses. During these visits, we make any necessary adjustments to the fit or lens materials to ensure you receive the best possible results.

We also take the time to educate all of our patients on proper contact lens care, handling, and cleaning techniques, as well as discuss potential risks and complications that can occur if lenses are not cared for correctly. In addition, we provide long-term follow-up to monitor the condition of your lenses, assess eye health, and ensure that proper hygiene habits are being maintained for safe, comfortable wear over time.

Some of Our Most Popular Prescription Contact Lenses

Daily disposable contact lenses are an increasingly popular contact lens because they offer the same crystal clear vision as other varieties without the need for proper storage and cleaning at the end of each day. Daily disposables allow the wearer to simply throw away each pair of contacts before bed, and open a brand new pair the very next day to enjoy the benefits and comfort of clean, clear, crisp contact lenses.

Multifocal contact lenses give you added freedom over glasses and they allow you to be able to view any direction – up, down and to the sides – with similar vision. These contacts are ideal for patients who have presbyopia (age-related farsightedness) and require reading glasses for up-close vision. Bifocal and multifocal contacts reduce or rid the need for wearing reading glasses, making them a convenient option for patients above the age of 40.

Multifocal contacts come in various forms and your eye doctor will help you determine which option is most suitable for your condition and vision goals. Monovision contact lenses are another option for patients with presbyopia and can be a great alternative to multifocal lenses if you have a difficult time adjusting to them.

Recommended Contact Lenses

These rigid lenses aren’t as popular or well-known as soft lenses, but they offer the advantages of durability, crisp vision and high oxygen permeability.

Challenges such as astigmatism, presbyopia, keratoconus and dry eyes needn’t be a barrier to contact lens wear, but they do require more time and patience.

“I can’t wear soft contacts; I have astigmatism.” This once-true statement is now simply a myth.
