Are you considering switching from glasses to contact lenses?
In this guide, we'll explore what you should know about wearing contact lenses.
We'll cover the basics, and the steps that we will take to support you along the way!
Examination: Prior to wearing contact lenses, a thorough eye examination is required. At Punzal Vision, our team will assess your eyes, determine your prescription, and recommend the most suitable type of lenses based on the health of your eyes and your current lifestyle requirements.
Fitting: During your fitting session, we'll measure your eyes and recommend lenses that will fit well and provide the best possible vision correction. We recommend that you wear your first prescription of contact lenses for a week or so, to see if any adjustments need to be made, and invite you to return for further fittings to update your prescription as needed.
Education: Learning how to insert, remove, and care for your contact lenses is essential. Our team will provide detailed instructions and guidance to help you feel confident managing and maintaining your new lenses. We are here to make this process as easy and seamless as possible for you!
When approaching switching to contact lenses, there are a few things that are important to know and be educated on in your decision. Contact lenses come in a variety of materials for different use cases and wear schedules.
