Contact Lens Exams, Fittings, & Brands in Winnipeg

Book Appointment

When it comes to corrective eyewear, contact lenses are ideal for many lifestyles. Being well-informed about contact lenses and their use can help you find the perfect type for your needs, regardless of what they are.

The way contact lenses fit matters just as much as their prescription. Ask anyone who’s ever worn poorly-fitting contacts: it can ruin a pair of otherwise excellent lenses.

If you’re considering contact lenses, we recommend that you request a contact lens exam and fitting. During this appointment we will check to make sure your eyes are in good health, and help you find contacts that fit properly.

More Information about Contact Lenses & Fittings

The contact lens exam is the first and most important step towards wearing contact lenses. During the exam we perform tests similar to those in routine eye exams to make sure your eyes are suitable for contacts.

If your eyes are a good match for contacts, we perform more detailed tests to determine the shape and curvature of your eyes. This information helps us find the right kind of contact lens for you.

Not all contact lenses are created equal. There are many types of lenses available for various prescriptions, applications, and eye shapes. During the exam and fitting we will work with you to find the pair that suits you best.

Once the exam is complete, we provide you with a trial pair of lenses. Depending on the trial, we will meet with you a few days or weeks later to determine their comfort and effectiveness.

Finding the right fit can take a few trials because every person’s eyes have a unique shape. If the first pair doesn’t fit perfectly, don’t be dismayed—we will keep working until we find the right pair!
