Advanced Contact Lenses in Carlsbad, CA
We provide custom contact lens services for patients in Carlsbad, the La Costa area, and throughout North County San Diego, with a focus on careful fitting and long-term eye health.
A More Detailed Contact Lens Evaluation
Custom contact lenses require a more in-depth evaluation than standard soft lenses. During your visit, your eye doctor uses detailed measurements and diagnostic tools to assess corneal shape and eye surface health, both of which directly affect comfort and lens performance. This type of evaluation is often helpful for patients who have experienced dryness, unstable vision, or discomfort with traditional contact lenses, or who have been told they are difficult to fit.
Scleral Lenses
Scleral lenses are larger-diameter lenses designed to vault the cornea and rest on the white of the eye.
An optometrist may recommend scleral lenses when standard contact lenses do not provide stable vision or adequate comfort, or when additional surface support is needed based on corneal measurements and eye health findings.
RGP & Hybrid Contact Lenses
Rigid gas-permeable (RGP) lenses and hybrid contact lenses, such as SynergEyes, offer an alternative to standard soft lenses. These designs may provide improved visual stability for certain corneal shapes.
Your eye doctor will determine whether RGP or hybrid lenses are appropriate based on detailed measurements, comfort considerations, and visual demands.
Keratoconus Contact Lenses
Keratoconus can alter the shape of the cornea and affect how light focuses in the eye.
When glasses or standard lenses are not sufficient, advanced contact lenses may improve visual stability and clarity.
Your optometrist makes recommendations based on corneal measurements, disease progression, and overall eye health.
