How Contact Lenses for Double Vision Work
Customized Solutions for Clearer Vision
Our contact lenses for double vision are crafted using advanced technology to help align your vision. Depending on the nature of your double vision—horizontal or vertical—we may use prism contact lenses or scleral lenses, which are customized to fit the unique shape of your eyes. Prism lenses bend light to align images, while scleral lenses provide the most flexibility in correction. Each lens is meticulously designed to ensure it meets your specific visual needs, enhancing your ability to see clearly.
Who Can Benefit from Contact Lenses for Double Vision?
Is This Solution Right for You?
Contact lenses for double vision are ideal for patients whose eyes struggle to work together, often due to conditions like misaligned eyes, differing vision between eyes, or complications from surgery. If traditional glasses with prisms are not effective, or if an eye patch is your current solution, contact lenses may offer a more comfortable and discreet alternative. A thorough consultation can determine the best type of lens to improve your vision.
Achieving Results with Contact Lenses for Double Vision
Why Choose Our Contact Lenses?
Patients using our contact lenses for double vision often experience significant improvements in their vision, such as reduced double vision and enhanced depth perception. Our lenses are tailored to fit perfectly, ensuring that they work effectively and comfortably. Many patients find their double vision reduced or eliminated, allowing them to return to their daily activities with confidence and ease. For those with severe distortion in one eye, occlusion prosthetic lenses can provide relief by blocking out problematic images, offering a better alternative to an eye patch.
Frequently Asked Questions
What causes double vision, and how can contact lenses help?
Double vision occurs when your eyes struggle to align and work together, often due to misalignment, differences in vision between the eyes, or complications from surgery. Contact lenses for double vision, such as prism or scleral lenses, help by adjusting the way light enters the eyes, aligning images correctly so you see a single, clear picture.
How do prism contact lenses work for double vision?
Prism contact lenses work by bending light to help align the images seen by each eye, allowing the brain to fuse them into one. This type of correction can effectively reduce or eliminate double vision, especially for those with vertical or mild horizontal misalignments.
Are contact lenses for double vision comfortable to wear?
Yes, contact lenses for double vision, especially scleral lenses, are custom-fitted to the shape of your eye, providing both comfort and stability. Our fitting process ensures that the lenses not only correct your vision but also sit comfortably on your eye for all-day wear.
Who is a good candidate for contact lenses for double vision?
Good candidates include patients whose eyes do not align properly, those with drastically different vision between the eyes, or individuals with distorted vision from conditions like corneal disease or complications from surgery. A thorough consultation will help determine if these lenses are the right solution for you.
What should I expect during a consultation for double vision contact lenses?
During the consultation, we will assess the shape and condition of your eyes, measure the extent of your double vision, and discuss the most suitable lens options for your needs. We also offer virtual consultations for out-of-town patients to help evaluate whether a custom lens could benefit you.
