CONTACT LENS EXAMS

At Fayette Regional Eyecare, we strive to meet all of your eye and  vision care needs. Corrective lens evaluations and prescription  management are provided by our optometrist.   After a  comprehensive eye and vision evaluation, the doctor will discuss the  variety of contact lens options with you to select the type that best  fits your vision needs and lifestyle. If you suffer from dry eye,  allergies, or recurring eye infections, speak with our staff to  determine whether contact lenses are right for you.

Prior to prescribing contact lenses, our doctors determine what level  of vision correction you require. Refractive error (commonly known as  nearsightedness, farsightedness, or astigmatism depending on the error)  is evaluated by measuring how the eyes focus when a series of different  lenses are placed in front of them. An optometrist may use either a  phoropter or an automated instrument to take these measurements.
