Contacts and Glasses for Harlingen Patients
Ready to move to contact lenses? We offer three of the most popular contact brands: CibaVision, CooperVision and VISTAKON®. With modern technology, contacts are now suitable for most eye types. If you do not know which type is best for you, we will help you out! Our eye care team can work with you to find the best option for your unique lifestyle. Below are some of the contact lens options we carry for our patients.
CibaVision
CibaVision has merged with Alcon. Don’t be surprised if you see CibaVision contacts with the Alcon label in the future. We assure you these are the same great contacts! Some of the most popular contacts that you may have already heard of are Air Optix, Dailies AquaComfort Plus, Focus Dailies and Freshlook range.
CooperVision
CooperVision is another great brand that is known for its daily contact lens. Don’t want to clean your contacts? Try daily contacts. They are comfortable and disposable for low maintenance.
VISTAKON®
VISTAKON® is one of the leading contact brands in the country. They offer a wide variety of contacts from disposable to biweeklies.
Deciding between glasses and contacts? Let’s talk about the advantages of contact lenses:
- Better peripheral vision
- Great if you place a sport or are active
- No more fog up or rain splashes
What are the disadvantages? Contact lenses are not the best solution for everyone and here’s why. You might consider glasses if:
- You have allergies
- Work in a dusty environment
- Have extremely dry eyes
- Have a thyroid problem or unmaintained diabetes
Don’t feel like you have to compromise between the two. Make an appointment today and pick out a brand new pair of fashionable frames and an updated prescription for contacts. Our team can help you decide what will work best for you!
Eye Exams in Harlingen
Haven’t had your prescription updated in years or simply have never had an eye exam? Schedule a comprehensive eye exam at Harlingen Eye Professionals. Eye exams reveal much more than eye health. Beginning warning signs of diabetes, hypertension, and systemic diseases can be detected through a simple eye exam.
What exactly happens during an eye exam? Your eyes will be dilated allowing one of our optometrists to examine the interior structure of the eye. Your eye doctor at our office will be able to detect retina disorders. Binocular vision is tested as well to make sure your muscle control, coordination and focus are at healthy levels. Intraocular pressure, which is the fluid pressure in the eye, will also be tested to rule out any signs of glaucoma. Contact our team or schedule an appointment online to book your eye exam.
What else does Harlingen Eye Professionals Offer?
We provide much more than just contact lens fitting and eye exams. LASIK surgery is the perfect solution for those who are tired of wearing glasses and are looking for a permanent solution. We offer free LASIK consultations to help patients identify if they may be good candidates for LASIK before going to see a surgeon. Coming to us before visiting a surgery office can also be a great way to save money. Our team has a co-management relationship with ophthalmologists in Harlingen, providing savings for our patients. We will examine your eyes before providing all the options for LASIK and other treatments.
