Eyeglasses and Contact Lenses

Eyeglasses

Eyeglasses have become more than just an appliance to improve your vision. Today, eyeglasses come in many shapes, sizes and colors, allowing you to “make a statement” or “keep it simple.” Our eyewear division, OptimEyes, carries the newest styles in frames and the latest technology in lenses and coatings. Our trained staff will assist you in creating a pair of eyeglasses that look great, help you see great and stay within your budget.

Contact Lenses

Contact lenses continue to improve as manufacturers make their lenses better fitting and more comfortable. The care of contact lenses also becomes easier as the lenses and solutions improve. One thing that has not changed, however, is the need for your eye doctor to do a thorough eye exam and contact lens fitting to insure the best vision and to maintain the health of your eyes.

Your eye doctor at Michael Callahan & Associates is expert at the proper fitting of contact lenses and can fit you in standard contact lenses, toric lenses (for astigmatism), monovision fits and bifocal contacts. We carry all major brands including lenses from Bausch & Lomb®, Ciba®, Ocular Science®s and Vistakon®.

Tips for Contact Lens Success

• Wash, rinse and dry your hands thoroughly each time you handle your lenses.
• Lenses removed from your eyes must be cleaned, rinsed and disinfected after each wearing period if they are reused.
• Remove your lenses immediately if they become uncomfortable.
• Do not insert a new or spare lens into an eye that is red, irritated or painful.
• Consult your eye doctor before wearing your lenses overnight or while sleeping.
• Replace your lenses with a new pair as often as recommended by your eye doctor.
• Do not skip visits with your eye doctor just because your lenses feel comfortable.
