Contact lens fitting step by step

Thinking about contact lenses but not sure whether they are for you? We check your eyes, choose a trial lens and calmly teach application. You leave with lenses on your eyes - or with clear next steps.

Qualification

We ask about eye health, work habits, allergies, dryness, medication and previous lens experience.

Trial lens

We choose power, base curve, diameter and material, then check how the lens sits on the eye.

Training and check-up

We go through hygiene, insertion, removal, wearing time and schedule a check-up after your first attempts.

What to know before your visit

See what the visit looks like, what is worth bringing and when it is better to start with an eye exam. We have gathered the key information in one place.

First visit

What contact lens fitting looks like

We start with an interview and exam. We ask about screen work, sport, air conditioning, allergies, dry eyes, medication, current glasses and whether lenses are for everyday, occasional or specific activity use.

Then we check eye parameters, tear film and trial lens fit. Power alone is not enough. Base curve, diameter, material, lens movement and comfort after several minutes all matter.

Distance and near

Multifocal lenses: near, intermediate and distance in one lens

If you increasingly hold your phone, menu or book farther away, but still want good distance vision, multifocal contact lenses may be a comfortable solution. One lens supports near, intermediate and distance vision.

This is often a good direction for people with presbyopia, usually after 40. During fitting we check eye parameters, choose addition and lens design for your day, teach application and schedule a check-up after first wear.

First application

We teach insertion, removal and hygiene

If you are wearing lenses for the first time, we reserve time for calm instruction. We show how to wash hands, remove a lens from the blister, recognise the correct side and insert or remove it without hurry.

After first wear we schedule a check-up. We assess comfort, sharpness, eye response and whether the wearing mode suits your day. If needed, we change lens type or parameters.

Contact lenses: types, function and comfort

Contact lenses sit directly on the tear film and correct vision without a frame on the face. They can help with myopia, hyperopia, astigmatism and presbyopia, but require the right type, material and hygiene.

Acuvue

Acuvue contact lenses

Acuvue is the brand we most often reach for when fitting contact lenses, especially when eyes dry quickly, you spend a lot of time at screens or you want comfortable daily lenses without compromise.

CooperVision

CooperVision lenses (Biofinity)

If previous lenses dried your eyes after a few hours or you felt them all day, CooperVision is often a good direction. Aquaform material retains water inside the lens, not only on the surface.
