Parents spend many years looking forward to a time when their children will be more independent. It’s difficult to care for one or more little people and still care for yourself! When children start growing into teenagers and young adults, parents often agonize over when their children are ready for these newer and greater responsibilities. One question we are often asked is, “What is the right age for contacts?”

At Modern Eyes, we use the latest technology in contact lenses. Not only do we fit several modalities of soft contact lenses, but we also utilize gas permeable, scleral, and hybrid contact lenses as well. Depending on your prescription and lifestyle needs Dr. Samels and Dr. Keller will determine what lenses are right for you. All contact lens exams include trial contact lenses, as needed, and information on the wear and care of lenses. New contact lens wearers are taught how to insert, remove, clean, and when to replace lenses. Within the first 90 days of your exam, If you are having issues with your contact lenses for any reason we will gladly see you for a complimentary contact lens check at no additional charge to you.

A cataract is a clouding of the lens inside the eye that leads to a decrease in vision. Left untreated, it is the most common cause of blindness and is conventionally treated with surgery. Vision loss occurs because opacification of the lens obstructs light from passing through and being focused on to the retina at the back of the eye.
