New Contacts: Bifocals, Bifocals with Astigmatism, Reading Boost CL, Acuvue with
Transitions, Dailies
Transitions, Dailies
Bifocals: We've had success with different brands of multifocal contact lenses. In some cases there is a compromise with distance and near vision, but many times people are able to get their needs met. Two brands also have astigmatism correction.
Biofinity Energys: There are contacts for people that use their cell phones and computers a lot to reduce strain. It may even help children and adults slow the progression of nearsightedness.
Transitions: Acuvue has come up with a 2-week lens with Transitions that darkens slightly outdoors. It is only available in single vision--no astigmatism correction.
Dailies: Daily contact lenses are great for those who want to just wear them occasionally or like the feel of a fresh lens each day. They come in single vision, for astigmatism, and bifocals.
If interested, please call to schedule a time to try them on for yourself. Remember to get your rebates when you order.

Information about getting your contact lens Rx
Thank you for allowing us to help you get the best vision and comfort from your contact lenses.
When trying a new brand of contact lenses, and sometimes new powers, a follow-up visit helps determine how well the contact lenses allow tears to circulate to get oxygen and nutrients to your eyes and check the stability of the powers. It’s best to wear them at least two hours before your appointment. Try to schedule the follow-up about a week after you get your trials. (If you wait too long and need more trials or need to be rechecked you may have extra charges.) If the fit is good and you are trying different powers of trials of the same brand you may be able to just call to verify that they are working for you. Please call within a week to let us know.
We can then sign off on the exam and complete the prescription, and order before they need replacing.
Contact Lens Prescription Acknowledgement Regulation
Due to a regulation effective in October, 2020, part getting your prescription will involve having you verify that you got access to or a copy of your prescription. With your permission we’d like to give you access through the secure Patient Fusion portal. You will then have it wherever you have internet access as well as being able to message us for other things and request appointments on line .
Make sure we have your correct email address. We will send an email to invite you to the portal if you haven’t already signed in when you scheduled.
Use Chrome for security. You should be able to use your birth date and phone number to set up a password and log in. We can also give you an access code. When you are asked to confirm it we recommend asking for a text code.
You may need to refresh the site.
Look for Messages on the column on the left side and send us a “hello” to let us know you got that far. We will message you back “Do we have permission to send or give you access electronically for your contact lens prescription?”
Reply “yes” if you agree.
Once your prescription has been finalized you will get another message, “Your contact lens prescription is now available for you to access on Patient Fusion under Health Records and Care Plan tabs. Please confirm that you are able to access it.” Reply “yes” if you were able to.
Another option is to for you to email us that you would like your prescription emailed back and understand that it may not be as secure. We would need the same response as above that you got access. We can also print it off and have you sign another paper that verifies that you got it.
