Contact Lens Consultation
At Pink City Eye & Retina Center, we begin every contact lens journey with a personalised consultation, because every eye is different, and so are every patient’s needs.
Contact lens technology is advancing rapidly, with new innovations making lenses more comfortable and easier to use. That’s why during your consultation, we take time to understand your lifestyle, daily routine, and eye health.
A consultation helps us understand your eye needs and find the best contact lens match for you.
You may prefer:
- Daily disposable lenses (use once and throw away),
- Biweekly disposables (used for 15 days),
- Or monthly disposable lenses (changed once a month with proper cleaning).
If you have any specific eye conditions like dryness, allergies, or sensitivity, our doctors at our clinic will guide you toward the right brand and lens material that will keep your eyes comfortable and your vision clear.
Also, if you’re above 40 years of age and find it difficult to read small print or see nearby objects (which is very common), we may recommend:
- Multifocal lenses, or
- A mix of multifocal and monovision lenses
These lenses are created to help you see clearly both near and far, eliminating the need for reading glasses.
At Pink City Eye & Retina Center, we take the time to listen to you and explain everything gently, so you feel confident and well cared for at every step.
Why is a Contact Lens Eye Exam Important?
At Pink City Eye & Retina Center,, your eye health is our top priority. Whether you currently wear glasses or feel your vision is perfect, if you’re thinking about wearing contact lenses, it’s very important to get a proper contact lens eye exam first.
Many people believe that a normal eye check-up or a glasses prescription is enough for contact lenses—but that’s not true. Since contact lenses sit right on your eye, it’s important they are carefully sized and fitted.
Here’s Why This Exam is So Important:
✅ 1. Every Eye is Different
Each eye is unique—just like clothes, contact lenses need the correct size and shape for comfort and clarity. A regular glasses prescription doesn’t give us this information.
✅ 2. Eye Health Comes First
Even if your vision seems fine, some hidden problems—like dryness, allergies, or early infections—can make contact lens use unsafe or uncomfortable. During your contact lens exam at our clinic, we check your eyes completely to make sure they are healthy and ready for lenses.
✅ 3. Comfort and Safety Matter
Poorly fitted lenses may lead to:
- Redness
- Blurry vision
- Eye pain or discomfort
- Long-term eye issues if not handled properly
Our careful exam helps avoid these problems and ensures your lenses feel comfortable and safe every time you wear them.
✅ 4. Customized Recommendations for Environment
Living in India, with its dry heat, dust, and changing weather, can affect your eyes. That’s why we also consider local conditions while choosing the right contact lens type for you. What works in other cities may not always be best in your city
Contact Lens Fitting
At Pink City Eye & Retina Center, we understand that contact lenses must be personalized—there’s no universal fit. Every person’s eyes are shaped a little differently, which is why a proper lens fitting is such an important step.
During your visit to our clinic, our experienced eye care team will take a few precise measurements of your eyes, such as:
- The curvature of your cornea (the clear front part of the eye)
- The size of your iris and pupil
- The amount of natural moisture (tear film) in your eyes
These details help us choose the lens that fits perfectly and feels natural, without causing irritation.
If a contact lens is too tight or too loose, it can lead to problems such as:
- Discomfort while blinking or moving your eyes
- Blurry or unstable vision
- Or even scratches and long-term damage to your eye surface if not corrected
That’s why at Pink City Eye & Retina Center, we take this step seriously and ensure your lenses are fitted with care, precision, and your comfort in mind.
Once the lenses are fitted properly, we’ll also guide you on how to wear, clean, and care for them, so you can enjoy clear, comfortable, and healthy vision every day.
Contact Lens Trial and Fitting
At Pink City Eye & Retina Center, once we help you choose the most suitable type of contact lenses based on your eyes and lifestyle, the next step is a trial and fitting session. This step helps us make sure that your lenses fit properly and feel comfortable before we finalise your order.
Here’s what happens during your lens fitting and trial at our clinic.
- We will gently insert a pair of trial contact lenses into your eyes.
- You’ll be asked to keep them in for about 15 to 20 minutes, so we can observe how your eyes react to them.
- After this short period, our eye doctor will carefully examine:
o How well the lenses fit and move on your eyes
o Whether there is any tearing, redness, or discomfort
o How clearly you are able to see with the trial lenses
If everything looks and feels right, we’ll go ahead and order the final lenses that match your exact requirements.
Before you leave, we will also provide gentle, step-by-step guidance on:
- How to safely insert and take out your lenses.
- How to learn the recommended daily wear time.
- How to properly clean and store reusable lenses.
Our team at Pink City Eye & Retina Center, makes sure that you feel confident, informed, and comfortable before starting to use your contact lenses at home.
We are always here to support you—whether you’re trying lenses for the first time or returning after a break.
Follow-Up After Contact Lens Fitting
At Pink City Eye & Retina Center, our care doesn’t end once your contact lenses are fitted. We believe in ongoing support to make sure your lenses continue to feel comfortable and safe.
That’s why we may ask you to schedule a follow-up appointment after your initial lens fitting. This allows our doctors to check:
- We’ll check whether your lenses fit perfectly.
- We’ll also monitor how your eyes respond and adjust to the lenses over time.
- If you’re experiencing any dryness, discomfort, or blurred vision
If you notice any issues such as eye irritation, redness, or dryness, please don’t wait—visit our clinic as soon as possible. It’s important not to ignore these symptoms.
During the follow-up, if needed, our doctor may:
- If needed, we might suggest an alternative lens type or brand for better results.
- Recommend a different cleaning or disinfecting solution
- Adjust your wearing schedule to reduce strain on your eyes
Our goal is to make sure you enjoy clear, comfortable, and healthy vision every day. At Pink City Eye & Retina Center, your eye safety and comfort always come first.
