Glasses and Contact Lenses
Not seeing as clearly as you can may impact your performance at school or work, cause eye strain, and cause headaches. As part of your eye exam, we will evaluate whether you will benefit from glasses and/or contact lenses. This is very important to ensure you are getting your best quality of life.

Types of Glasses: distance vision only, reading glasses, computer glasses, lined-bifocals, and no-line bifocals (aka progressives).

Types of Contact Lenses: Soft Contact Lenses and Scleral Contact Lenses. We will evaluate your eyes to determine the best type of contact lenses for you based on your prescription, lifestyle and how you will be wearing them. We will provide training and education on how to insert and remove the contact lenses, and how to best care for them.

Open Cities Eye Clinic Providers are all part of the InfantSEE program which allows for a 1-time vision assessment for infants between the ages of 6-12 months.

Eye exams are different from a vision screening. Parents may fall under the pretense that their child’s vision is adequate after having a vision screening performed at the doctor’s office or at their child’s school. An eye exam encompasses more testing that can help detect not only sight, but also other eye conditions which may prevent them from learning. In fact, 1 in 4 children have an eye and vision condition that may be affecting learning and may miss the equivalent of 135 days of school content each school year (Health Policy Institute, American Optometric Association).
