Establishing a Good Contact Lens Fit at Family Optometry 121

It starts with a thorough eye exam to ensure the most up-to-date prescription and rule out any pre-existing conditions that could interfere with contact lens wear.

Fitting lenses to your lifestyle
We will determine the best fitting lens based on your lifestyle needs and the shape and health of your eyes. In most cases, you’ll have the opportunity to try lenses on the same day as your exam. You may even go home with a few samples before making a final decision.

Follow up fittings
Our East Harlem team will follow up after the initial fitting and then make any necessary changes in fit or materials to get you the best possible result. We teach all our patients proper contact lens care and also possible consequences if proper care is not taken. Then we continue with long-term follow-up to monitor the condition of the lenses and to ensure that proper hygiene is being maintained.

Our Contact Lens Services:


  • White container labeled
    We carry all of the top contact lens brands!
  • Smiling woman holding daisies over her eyes in playful fashion
    Disposable contact lenses are generally considered to be far superior in comfort and wearability than hard and rigid lenses.
  • Female patient smiling during eye exam consultation with optometrist
    A routine exam won’t provide some of the measurements and testing that are required to determine if your eyes are suitable for contact lens wear, and to generate your contact lens Rx.
  • Wrinkled eye of an elderly man showing signs of aging and wisdom
    Fortunately for those who don’t like the look, feel or inconvenience of reading glasses, there is another option. Bifocal and multifocal lenses are also available in contact lenses in both soft and rigid varieties.
  • Contact lens case with lenses and tweezers for hygienic handling
    These rigid lenses aren’t as popular or well-known as soft lenses, but they offer the advantages of durability, crisp vision and high oxygen permeability.
  • Extreme close-up of blue iris and detailed eyelashes
    Challenges such as astigmatism, presbyopia, keratoconus and dry eyes needn’t be a barrier to contact lens wear, but they do require more time and patience.
  • Male athlete in sprint start position wearing sports performance gear
    “I can’t wear soft contacts; I have astigmatism.” This once-true statement is now simply a myth.
