Which Contact Lenses Are Right For You?

When you visit an optometrist in Kailua-Kona with the intention of wearing contact lenses, you want to understand the different options and make the right selection for your eyes. At Wally Kojima, O.D and Associates, we help you find the right contact lenses for your eyes and your situation.

Exams and Measurements with a Kailua-Kona Eye Doctor

The first step of finding the right contact lenses for your eyes is the exam a Kailua-Kona eye doctor provides to check your vision. During the exam, we take measurements to ensure the contacts are a proper fit for your eyes and we discuss the way you intend to wear the lenses. Certain contact lenses are more appropriate for specific activities, such as playing sports, when compared to other options.

Comparing Different Lenses

After discussing the situation with an optometrist in Kailua-Kona, we offer details about different contact lenses available for your eyes. We may suggest soft lenses when you need more comfortable options. Daily wear lenses are also an appropriate option when you want comfortable lenses you remove at night.

If you must wear contacts while sleeping, then you want to consider extended-wear lenses. The contacts allow you to wear them for an extended period and are appropriate while flying or engaging in activities that prevent you from removing the lenses. 

Specialty lenses, like bi-focal contacts, toric lenses or colored contacts, depend on your eyes and situation. You may need the lenses in certain situations to improve your vision.

Selecting the Right Contacts

The key to selecting the right contact lenses is to have a discussion with an eye doctor. In our clinic, we offer suggestions after discussing your activities and plans for the lenses. We also help you determine the right materials for your eyes based on your comfort level.

Contact lenses allow you to improve your vision without wearing traditional glasses. The key is selecting the right lenses after evaluating your plans and identifying your needs.
