Specialty Contact Lenses
Are you tired of dealing with uncomfortable contact lenses that just don’t seem to work for your eyes? At Beckley Vision Center, we offer a range of specialty contact lenses in Beckley to meet your vision needs. Soft contact lenses are the most popular type of contact lens, but not everyone can wear them comfortably.
For “hard-to-fit” patients who prefer to wear contact lenses, there are options available to help you see clearly and comfortably. Dr. Holliday will help you find the perfect fit for your eyes with contact lenses tailored to your unique visual needs and lifestyle. Whether you have astigmatism, presbyopia, or dry eye or simply want to wear contact lenses, we have the right option for you. Using advanced technology like corneal mapping, we can create customized contact lenses that fit the unique shape of your eyes perfectly.
Rigid gas permeable (RGP) lenses
These lenses are made of a durable plastic material that allows oxygen to pass through to the eye. They provide crisp, clear vision and are known for their durability and longevity. They are a great option for those with astigmatism or high prescriptions.
Toric lenses
Toric lenses are specially designed for people with astigmatism. Astigmatism causes blurry vision due to an irregularly shaped cornea or lens in the eye. Toric lenses are weighted at the bottom to ensure they stay in place and provide clear vision for people with this condition.
Scleral lenses
These gas permeable lenses cover a larger area of the eye than traditional contacts, making them ideal for patients with irregular corneas or severe dry eyes. Scleral lenses are large enough to rest on the sclera (the white part of your eye). Since they don’t touch the cornea (the most sensitive part of the human body), these lenses are often more comfortable for people with sensitive eyes or irregular corneas. They also stay on the eye better due to their larger size.
Hybrid lenses
Hybrid contact lenses combine the best features of both rigid gas permeable and soft contact lenses. They have a rigid center for clear vision and a soft outer skirt for comfort. Hybrid lenses are great for patients who have difficulty adjusting to traditional rigid gas permeable lenses or soft contacts.
Cosmetic lenses
Have you ever wanted to change up your look with a new eye color or enhance your natural one? At Beckley Vision Center, we offer a wide selection of cosmetic contact lenses that can help you achieve the look you desire. Whether you need vision correction or not, it’s important to remember that even cosmetic lenses require a prescription from an eye doctor. Obtaining a prescription is crucial in preventing potential complications and ensuring that your eyes remain healthy while wearing contacts.
Monovision lenses
Nearly everyone over the age of 40 develops presbyopia at some point, which is the loss of near vision as you age. Monovision contact lenses can help improve vision for those with presbyopia and other vision problems such as astigmatism. Monovision involves wearing one lens for distance vision in one eye and another lens for near vision in the other eye. This approach can help individuals over 40 years old adjust to presbyopia without having to rely on reading glasses or bifocals.
Multifocal lenses
Multifocal contact lenses help correct presbyopia, a common age-related condition that affects near vision. These lenses have different powers in different zones to allow for clear vision at all distances. Multifocal lenses are ideal for people who have trouble reading small print or seeing close-up objects.
