Soft Contact Lenses for Columbus and Delaware, Ohio

 

Modern soft contact lens designs are almost all disposable, meaning that the patient uses a new pair at the end of a wearing cycle.  The regimen can vary from disposing of the lenses every day, every two weeks, every month, or every three months.   Soft contact lenses can correct for every type of refractive error including astigmatism.  The most recent advancement in soft contact lenses is the development of silicone hydrogel materials.  These silicone based lenses are four times more breathable than previous generation materials and are significantly more comfortable for most patients.  In fact these lenses can be ideal for patients who have not been able to wear lenses in the past due to dryness.  For those patients who are also looking for a cosmetic change, soft contact lenses can also be designed to enhance or change eye color.
