Wondering Why You Need a Contact Lens Exam?
A contact lens exam is different from a standard eye exam. Contacts sit directly on the surface of your eyes, which means comfort, fit, and eye health all depend on getting the details just right. At SALT. Optometry, we take a personalized approach to contact lens fittings, whether you're trying contacts for the first time or troubleshooting lenses that haven’t felt quite right. From daily wear to hard-to-fit eyes, we’ll help you find lenses that work for you.
What Happens During Your Exam at SALT. Optometry
Every eye is different, which means contact lens care has to be, too. We take a detailed look at how your eyes are shaped, how they function, and how we can help you see clearly and comfortably. Here's what your visit may include:
Contact Lenses We Offer
SALT. Optometry offers a range of contact lenses to meet the needs of Newport Beach, Lido Isle, Balboa Peninsula, Costa Mesa, and the greater Orange County area. Whether you’re looking for something easy and low-maintenance or need a more customized solution for a hard-to-fit eye, we’ve got options.
Standard Lenses
Soft contact lenses are a flexible choice for daily or extended wear. We offer daily, biweekly, and monthly lenses, including options for astigmatism and multifocal prescriptions.
Custom Lenses
We are skilled in hard-to-fit lenses for patients with astigmatism, keratoconus, dry eye, and other needs. These lenses are custom-tailored to fit your eyes for better clarity and comfort.
First Time Wearer?
Trying contact lenses for the first time can feel like a big step, but we’re here to make it easy. We guide you through every step of the process, from learning how to insert and remove your lenses to understanding how to care for them properly.
We take the time to answer your questions, help you practice until you're comfortable, and make sure your lenses feel good and work well before you head out the door. You’ll leave with clear instructions, a personalized plan, and the confidence to wear your lenses comfortably from day one.
