More Than Just Your Prescription

What Is a Contact Lens Exam?

A contact lens exam includes everything you would expect from a routine eye exam, along with additional steps to make sure your lenses fit properly. Because contact lenses sit directly on the surface of your eye, the right fit is important for both comfort and eye health.

What Makes Contact Lens Exams Different?

Contact lenses require a more precise approach than glasses. During your exam, our Carson City eye doctors look at details that help determine which lenses will work best for you, including:

  • The shape and surface of your eye
  • How your eyes stay hydrated throughout the day
  • How your eyes respond to different lens types

Not every lens works for every patient, which is why we take the time to find the right match for your needs.
