FAQs About Contact Lens Exams
01
How is a contact lens exam different from a regular eye exam?
A regular eye exam assesses your overall eye health and provides a glasses prescription. A contact lens exam goes further, focusing on measurements and tests specific to fitting contact lenses.
02
How long does a contact lens exam take?
A contact lens exam usually takes 30–60 minutes, depending on whether it includes fitting and trying out lenses.
03
Can I wear contacts immediately after my exam?
In most cases, yes. Your doctor will often provide trial lenses during the exam so you can start wearing them and ensure they’re comfortable.
04
Are there risks associated with contact lenses?
Contact lenses are safe when used correctly. Risks, like eye infections, typically result from poor hygiene, overwearing lenses, or improper care.
