Your eyes deserve unparalleled care, and contact lenses are a great way to boost your visual acuity without glasses. Contacts have come a long way since their inception and can offer both convenience and comfort.
Whether you want to say goodbye to glasses forever or just want more options, it’s vital that you get contact lenses that suit your needs. Some of the main reasons patients switch from glasses to contacts include:

If you’ve found that traditional contact lenses are uncomfortable, then scleral contact lenses may be a good option for you. Scleral contact lenses are larger contact lenses that are designed to vault over your cornea and rest on the white of your eye (known as a sclera). Their larger size and vaulted design makes these contacts an excellent option for patients with astigmatism, irregular corneas, or severe dry eyes.
Multifocal contact lenses feature multiple prescriptions on a single lens and are frequently used by patients with presbyopia, which is a common refractive error many of us will develop as we age.
Hybrid lenses are specifically designed to help patients with mild astigmatism correct their vision. These lenses combine the crisp, clear vision of rigid contact lenses with the comfort of soft contact lenses. This is achieved using a rigid, gas-permeable centre surrounded by a soft skirt.
These contacts are great for patients with irregularly shaped corneas, and their large size and thin edges make them less likely to become dislodged during sports or other high-energy activities, making them a popular choice among athletes.
