Contact Lenses

contact lensAustin Eyecare offers a wide selection of contact lenses including disposable soft contact, bifocal/multifocal, toric, and colored lenses. Whether you wear daily, weekly or monthly disposables, or conventional (vial) lenses, check out our selection of lenses that fit your needs!

A good contact lens fit starts with a thorough eye exam to ensure the most up-to-date prescription and rule out any pre-existing conditions that could interfere with contact lens wear.

We will determine the best fitting lens based on your lifestyle needs, the shape and health of your eye. In most cases, you’ll have the opportunity to try lenses on the same day as your exam.

We follow up the initial fitting and then make any necessary changes in fit or materials to get you the best possible fit. We teach all our patients proper contact lens care and also possible consequences if proper care is not taken. Then we continue with long-term follow-up to monitor the condition of the lenses and to ensure that proper hygiene is being maintained!

Austin Eyecare is so excited to introduce MiSight contacts! Designed to address the growing prevalence of Myopia, especially among children and young adults, these special contact lenses offer a promising solution. MiSight lenses are specifically engineered to slow down the progression of nearsightedness, providing clear and comfortable vision throughout the day! These soft contact lenses incorporate Dual-Focus technology, which not only corrects existing myopia, but also helps slow down its progression. MiSight contacts empower young individuals to experience the world with clarity, confidence, and the freedom of reduced reliance on traditional eyeglasses. Austin Eyecare invites you come in for a MiSight consultation during your eye exam!

  • A routine exam won’t provide some of the measurements and testing that are required to determine if your eyes are suitable for contact lens wear, and to generate your contact lens Rx.
  • If you need correction for presbyopia but dislike the idea of bifocal eyeglasses, you have many contact lens options.
  • These rigid lenses aren’t as popular or well-known as soft lenses, but they offer the advantages of durability, crisp vision and high oxygen permeability.
  • Challenges such as astigmatism, presbyopia, keratoconus and dry eyes needn’t be a barrier to contact lens wear, but they do require more time and patience.
  • “I can’t wear soft contacts; I have astigmatism.” This once-true statement is now simply a myth.
