Contact Lenses Made for Your Eyes
Contact lenses can give you the freedom of glasses-free vision while delivering the sharp correction you count on every day. At North Shore Eye Health & Wellness, we take time to understand your unique needs with a detailed contact lens exam and fitting process.
Whether you’re trying contacts for the first time or have years of experience, our goal is to make sure your lenses feel comfortable, provide lasting clarity, and protect your eye health. From convenient daily lenses to specialty designs for conditions like astigmatism or presbyopia, we offer solutions tailored to your lifestyle.
Ready to experience vision your way? Schedule your contact lens exam today and get started with lenses designed just for you.
The Difference of a Contact Lens Exam
A contact lens exam is more detailed than a regular eye exam because contacts sit directly on the surface of your eye. To prioritize a safe and comfortable fit, your exam will include:
- A review of your eye health and tear film
- Measurements of your corneal shape and curvature
- An evaluation of how lenses move and sit on your eye
- A discussion of your vision needs, lifestyle, and preferences
It’s important to know that a contact lens prescription is different from a glasses prescription. Contact lens prescriptions are tailored to the unique shape of your eye so that the lenses fit properly and comfortably.
What to Expect During Your Fitting
Finding the right pair of contact lenses is a personal process. During your fitting, we will:
- Try different lens designs and sizes to check comfort and clarity
- Teach you how to insert, remove, and care for your lenses
- Address any questions or concerns you have about daily wear
- Provide follow-up visits if needed to make adjustments
We want you to leave feeling confident and comfortable with your new lenses.
Contact Lenses for Every Lifestyle
Along with specialty designs, we also provide lenses that fit into your day-to-day routine, including:
- Daily disposables for maximum convenience and hygiene
- Extended-wear lenses for flexible wear schedules
- Multifocal lenses for seamless vision correction at all distances
- Toric lenses for clear and stable vision with astigmatism
- Specialty contact lenses, such as MiSight and ortho-k lenses, to help slow the progression of myopia in children
Our Specialty Contact Lens Options
Not everyone’s eyes are suited for standard soft contacts. Eye conditions, previous surgeries, or high prescriptions can make specialty designs a better option.
We provide specialty contact lenses designed to bring comfort and clarity to patients who once thought contacts were not an option:
- Scleral lenses: Rest on the white part of the eye (the sclera) and create a liquid cushion that keeps the eyes hydrated. Ideal for keratoconus, irregular corneas, or severe dry eye.
- Hybrid lenses: Combine the sharp vision of rigid lenses with the comfort of soft lenses. A great choice for those who need precision and comfort in one design.
- Gas permeable (GP) lenses: Small, firm lenses that allow oxygen to pass through while providing clear vision for complex prescriptions or unique corneal conditions.
- Custom soft lenses: Designed for high prescriptions or uncommon eye shapes, these lenses are tailored for individual comfort and clarity.
- Therapeutic lenses: Bandage lenses and amniotic membrane biological bandages help protect and heal the eye after trauma, surgery, or severe surface disease.
Caring for Your Contact Lenses
Good hygiene is key to safe and comfortable contact lens wear. Always:
- Wash your hands before handling your lenses
- Clean and disinfect reusable lenses as directed
- Replace lenses according to your schedule
- Never share lenses with others
- Contact us immediately if you experience discomfort or irritation
At North Shore Eye Health & Wellness, our team is committed to pairing you with lenses that support your eye health and lifestyle. Whether you need routine contacts or specialty lenses, we’ll take the time to find your perfect fit.

What Patients Are Saying
My daughter came in with complaints of cloudy vision. Every person we encountered was friendly and professional. I could tell my daughter was comfortable during every test throughout her visit. Dr. assured both of us that her complaint was nothing to worry about!
Relieved and happy with our experience here!
Anne J.
As a new patient, I wasn’t sure exactly what to expect.
My previous experiences had been with large chain eye centers and those experiences were hit or miss. I was pleasantly surprised by my experience at North Shore Eye. They were friendly and thorough with their examinations and Dr. Ross was extremely
knowledgeable and friendly. I would highly recommend!
Amy S.
Extremely knowledgeable, has flexible hours that have allowed me to go in after work. Very prompt in his
responses and overall very friendly environment.
Lauren D.
The most up to date equipment with the most personal care from any optometrist I’ve ever gotten. I would recommend him to anybody who has a complex prescription and hasn’t had good luck with other doctors.
Geoff R.
Dr. Ross and staff were very helpful. When I had a terrible eye infection, Dr. Ross evaluated my eye, prescribed me the proper meds, and scheduled a follow-up to make sure everything was going as expected. Overall, I was very impressed with the level of care and would recommend North Shore to anyone who needs to see an optometrist.
