Contact Lens Evaluation
A contact lens evaluation involves various steps to ensure proper fit, comfort, and safe usage. These include:
- Patient history: Gather info on health, prior lens experience, and visual needs.
- Eye examination: Assess overall eye health and potential issues.
- Eye measurements: Determine lens size based on corneal shape, pupil size, etc.
- Trial lenses: Evaluate fit, movement, and initial comfort.
- Visual acuity: Check vision with and without lenses.
- Lens movement: Observe lens positioning during blinking and eye movement.
- Tear film assessment: Evaluate tear quality for lens lubrication.
- Comfort and adaptation: Assess comfort during a trial period.
- Visual performance: Confirm desired vision correction with trial lenses.
- Education: Learn about lens care, hygiene, insertion, and risks.
- Follow-up visits: Monitor adaptation, comfort, and satisfaction.
- Prescription finalization: Confirm best-fit lenses and finalize prescription.
A thorough evaluation ensures lenses fit well, offer clear vision, and are safe. Regular follow-ups are essential for ongoing monitoring and addressing any concerns during lens use.
