Patients at Focused Eye Care in Lakeville and Farmington, MN, can enjoy the convenience, comfort, and freedom that contact lenses provide. These small lenses sit directly on the eye to correct vision issues like nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism. With proper fitting and guidance from our team, contacts can provide clear vision and confidence for daily activities. Please note that our contact lens appointments come with a contact lens exam fee. This fee starts at $70 and goes up from there depending on the type of contact lens you're in. If your insurance covers and or all of this fee, we will honor it.

Types of Contact Lenses

There are several types of contact lenses available, including soft lenses, rigid gas-permeable lenses, and hybrid lenses. Soft lenses are flexible, comfortable, and suitable for most wearers. Rigid gas-permeable options offer sharper vision and durability but require an adjustment period. Hybrid designs combine the comfort of soft lenses with the clarity of rigid lenses. Each type of lens is available in daily, weekly, or monthly replacement schedules, allowing wearers to choose the option that best fits their lifestyle and routine.

Benefits of Contact Lenses

Contact lenses offer advantages beyond correcting vision. They provide a wider field of view than glasses and move with the eye. They do not fog or get splattered by rain, making them ideal for outdoor activities. Many people also appreciate the cosmetic benefit of maintaining a natural appearance. Modern lenses can include features such as UV protection, moisture retention, and presbyopia correction.

Caring for Your Contacts

Proper care is essential for eye health and comfort. Always wash hands before handling lenses, use recommended cleaning solutions, and store lenses in a clean case. Regular eye exams also ensure lenses fit well and maintain clear vision. Following these steps helps reduce the risk of infection, irritation, and long-term damage.
