Contact Lenses

Introduction

Welcome to Dr. Bloom's Office, where we offer a wide range of contact lenses to meet your individual needs. Whether you have astigmatism, nearsightedness, farsightedness, or require multifocal correction, we have the perfect solution for you.

Daily Disposable Contact Lenses

Daily disposable contact lenses are an excellent option for those who prefer convenience and flexibility. With these lenses, you don't have to worry about cleaning, storing, or maintaining them. Simply wear a fresh pair every day and discard them before bed. Daily disposables are ideal for individuals with allergies or occasional wearers who want a hassle-free experience.

Monthly Contact Lenses

Monthly contact lenses are designed to be worn for up to 30 consecutive days. They require proper cleaning and storing each night to maintain optimal eye health. These lenses are cost-effective and offer a balance between convenience and affordability. Monthly contact lenses are available for various vision corrections, including astigmatism and presbyopia.

Toric Contact Lenses for Astigmatism

For individuals with astigmatism, toric contact lenses are specifically designed to correct the irregular curvature of the cornea. These lenses provide precise vision correction, allowing individuals with astigmatism to enjoy clear and crisp vision. Toric lenses come in both daily disposable and monthly options, ensuring comfort and flexibility for all astigmatism patients.

Extended Wear Contact Lenses

Extended wear contact lenses are designed for overnight wear, allowing you to enjoy clear vision even while you sleep. These lenses are made with high oxygen permeability, reducing the risk of eye complications. However, it's important to closely follow the wearing schedule recommended by your eye care professional to ensure optimal eye health.

Rigid Gas Permeable (RGP) Contact Lenses

Rigid gas permeable contact lenses, also known as RGP lenses or GP lenses, offer crisp and clear vision. They are made of durable materials that allow high oxygen flow to the cornea, promoting healthier eyes. RGP lenses are especially beneficial for individuals with specific vision needs, such as astigmatism or keratoconus. While they may require a short adjustment period, many patients find tremendous comfort and vision improvement with RGP lenses.

Colored Contact Lenses

Colored contact lenses are a fun and creative way to enhance or change the color of your eyes. Whether you want to make a bold statement or subtly enhance your natural eye color, colored contacts offer endless possibilities. These lenses are available with or without vision correction, making them suitable for everyone who wishes to explore their eye appearance.

Multifocal Contact Lenses

Multifocal contact lenses are designed for individuals with presbyopia, a condition that affects near vision as we age. These lenses provide simultaneous correction for both near and distance vision, eliminating the need for reading glasses. Multifocal contact lenses are available in various designs, including simultaneous vision and segmented vision, allowing you to choose the option that suits your preferences.
