At Primary Vision Care, we strive to meet all of your eye and vision care needs. Corrective lens evaluations and prescription management are imperative for maximizing your eye health. After a comprehensive eye and vision evaluation, Dr. Tart will discuss the variety of contact lens options with you to select the type that best fits your vision needs and lifestyle. If you suffer from dry eye, allergies, or recurring eye infections, speak with our staff to determine whether contact lenses are right for you.
Evaluation
Prior to prescribing contact lenses, tests are conducted to determine what level of visual correction you require. Refractive error, commonly known as nearsightedness, farsightedness, or astigmatism, is evaluated by measuring how the eyes focus when a series of different lenses are placed in front of them. Dr. Tart may use either a phoropter or an automated instrument to take these measurements. To schedule an appointment for a visual evaluation, call (910) 803-0555 today.
Corrective Lenses
After determining the level of refractive error, Dr. Tart works with you to determine whether contact lenses or glasses are best for your preferred lifestyle. If you suffer from certain conditions, such as dry eye or allergies, glasses may be the most comfortable corrective solution. Contact lenses are available in either soft or rigid gas permeable form. Contact lenses need to be changed daily, weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly, depending on what type of lens you select. Specialized contact lenses, such as bifocal contact lenses, are also available for patients with special eye conditions.
Cosmetic Lenses
Advances in contact lens technology has created great options for cosmetic and prosthetic lenses. Custom contact lenses can be created to camouflage any color variation or irregularity and produce a natural eye color. Cosmetic lenses are also available to transform your eye color. Call us at (910) 803-0555 to speak with our staff if you are interested in modifying or changing your eye color with contact lenses.
