Contact Lenses in New Braunfels
With all of the varieties available and all of the advancements made to contact lenses in just the past few years, we at Lone Star Vision Associates P.A. are pleased to help you benefit from wearing them. Whether you choose soft or hard (also called rigid or gas permeable), we have something for everyone among our inventory of contact lenses in New Braunfels. So if you’re nearsighted, farsighted, have an astigmatism, or any combination of these (yes, you can get bifocal or multifocal contacts too), rest assured that we have just the right thing for you.
Both soft and hard contacts are comfortable to wear, though preference can vary based on individual taste. Soft lenses are generally considered easier to wear and to get used to. They’re also more suitable for active lifestyles. Among the subcategories of soft lenses are daily wear, which you can put in each morning and keep in for up to 18 hours before taking them out to clean; extended wear, that can be kept in overnight while you sleep; disposable that are worn just one time before being discarded for a new pair; and color-changing, which give you the opportunity to try on a whole new eye color, even if you don’t need vision correction at all. That’s the flexibility of choice you get with our contact lenses in New Braunfels. Hard contacts have the benefit of offering sharper and clearer vision than soft lenses do. In addition, if you have severe nearsightedness or astigmatism, hard lenses are typically the best option.
Just a few of the advantages of contacts over eyeglasses are that they don’t alter your appearance at all, they give you a more natural type of vision, and they don’t hinder your side to side (peripheral) vision at all. In order to make certain that your contacts are comfortable, unlikely to cause you an infection, and that they are giving you the best vision correction possible, we will give you a contact lens exam and do a fitting in advance of you wearing our contact lenses in New Braunfels. Call us today and schedule an eye exam. Your eye care is our business.
