CONTACT LENS SERVICES @ CHAITHANYA
Many people have switched from wearing eye glasses to contact lenses. Having the same prescription strength as eye glasses, contact lenses are a better option for people who lead an active lifestyle. However, because every eye has a unique shape, there is no one-style-fits-all option when it comes to prescription or cosmetic contact lenses. Chaithanya Eye Hospital & Research Institute offers cutting-edge contact lens services.
Our ophthalmic consultants accurately measure the size and curvature of your eye and examine your cornea to ensure the correct fit of contact lenses. Comprehensive eye examinations help us recommend the appropriate product, material, and style for optimal comfort.
In general, optometrists in our contact lens service treat patients whose vision cannot be improved with spectacles but can be improved with contact lenses.
Can anybody wear contact lenses? Almost everyone can wear contact lenses. Many special lenses are available today.
Age factor to start wearing contact lenses Cosmetic fittings are usually best from 13–15 years of age unless required for sports. In children, readiness depends on hygiene practices and maturity. Many patients over 60 are first-time contact lens wearers. Lenses can be worn as long as eye health and handling are maintained.
How long do contact lenses last? Soft lenses are available as daily, bi-weekly, monthly, and yearly disposables. Hard lenses vary based on corneal condition and lens type, lasting from 6 months up to 5 years. Regular follow-ups are essential for all contact lens users.
How much do contact lenses cost? The type of lens, material, and prescription determine the cost. A detailed quote will be provided once the most suitable lens is recommended by our ophthalmic consultant.
Can I get tinted lenses to change eye colour? Yes. A wide range of tints for both light and dark eyes is available.
