If your contact lenses feel dry by lunch or never seem quite right, the problem might not be your eyes—it might be the fit. At ATX Optometry in North Austin, we believe your lenses should feel so comfortable you forget you're wearing them. That's why we offer detailed contact lens exams tailored to your eyes, your lifestyle, and your needs.
The Right Fit Starts with the Right Exam
A proper contact lens exam isn’t just a prescription—it’s a blueprint for all-day comfort and clear, stable vision. At ATX Optometry, we begin by mapping the unique shape and surface of your eye to select lenses that fit precisely. That means less sliding, less irritation, and sharper vision, especially for patients with astigmatism or dry eyes.
We also look at your eye health history, how you use your eyes throughout the day, and your comfort level with different types of lenses. Whether you’re a first-time wearer or have worn contacts for years, our goal is to make sure your lenses fit your lifestyle—not just your eyes.
Not All Lenses Are Created Equal
If you've only ever tried one brand of contacts, you might be missing out. At ATX Optometry, we offer a wide range of lens options—including toric lenses for astigmatism, scleral lenses for irregular corneas or dry eye, and daily disposables for maximum convenience.
These specialty contact lenses can be life-changing for patients who’ve been told they "just have to deal" with discomfort or blurred vision. When lenses are fit correctly, they not only feel better—they protect your eyes better too.
Comfort and Safety Go Hand in Hand
A poorly fitting lens doesn’t just feel wrong—it can put your eye health at risk. Friction, dryness, and poor oxygen flow can all increase your chances of developing issues like corneal inflammation or infection. At ATX Optometry, we take your comfort seriously because it’s directly tied to your long-term eye health.
That’s why our contact lens exam includes evaluating how well the lens centers, moves, and holds moisture. We also make adjustments based on how your eyes respond after hours of wear—not just how they feel in the exam room. If something doesn’t feel right, we fix it. That’s our standard.
