How Contact Lens Fitting Works

Getting fitted for contact lenses at Eye Matrix is a simple 4-step process:

1. Comprehensive Eye Test — We measure your prescription, corneal curvature, and pupil size using a keratometer and autorefractometer (free of charge)
2. Lifestyle Assessment — We discuss your daily routine, work environment, sports activities, and budget to recommend the best lens type
3. Trial Lenses — You'll try sample lenses in our store to ensure comfort and clarity. We check the fit under a slit lamp microscope
4. Training & Care Instructions — Our optometrist teaches you how to insert, remove, and care for your lenses. You'll practice until you're confident

Typical fitting time: 30–45 minutes

Contact Lens Care Tips

Proper care is essential for eye health and lens longevity:

• Wash hands before handling lenses (use antibacterial soap, no lotion)
• Use fresh solution every time — never reuse old solution or top it up
• Rub and rinse monthly lenses daily, even with "no-rub" solutions
• Replace lens case every 3 months to prevent bacterial buildup
• Never sleep in lenses unless they're extended-wear approved
• Never use water — only use sterile contact lens solution
• Remove lenses if eyes are red and consult us immediately
• Replace on schedule — daily means daily, monthly means 30 days max

Types of Contact Lenses We Fit

The right lens depends on your prescription, how often you wear them, and your lifestyle. At Eye Matrix we fit and supply the full range from Bausch & Lomb, Alcon, and Johnson & Johnson:

• Daily disposables — A fresh, sterile pair each day with no cleaning. The most hygienic option, ideal for occasional wear, travel, sports, and sensitive or allergy-prone eyes.
• Monthly lenses — The most economical choice for full-time wearers, cleaned and stored nightly in solution.
• Toric lenses — Specially shaped to correct astigmatism, giving stable, clear vision that ordinary spherical lenses cannot.
• Multifocal contact lenses — Near, intermediate, and distance vision in one lens for presbyopia — the contact-lens answer to progressive glasses.
• Coloured lenses — Prescription and zero-power options in hazel, grey, green, and blue.

Contact Lens Safety & Care

Contacts are medical devices that sit on your eye, so hygiene is not optional — most lens-related eye problems come from poor habits, not the lenses themselves. Follow these rules and your eyes stay healthy:

• Always wash and dry your hands before touching lenses.
• Never top up old solution — empty and refill the case with fresh solution every time.
• Never sleep in lenses unless they are specifically approved for extended wear.
• Remove lenses before swimming, showering, or hot tubs — tap water carries microbes that cause serious infections.
• Replace lenses on schedule; do not stretch a monthly lens to six weeks.
• Replace the lens case every three months, and give your eyes a spectacle day each week.

If your eyes ever become red, painful, or unusually light-sensitive, remove the lenses and visit us or an eye doctor promptly — never push through discomfort.

First-Time Contact Lens Wearer? What to Expect

Starting contacts can feel daunting, but our fitting makes it simple. After a free eye test to confirm your power, the optometrist measures your cornea and selects a trial lens in the right base curve and diameter. You will try it on in-store, and we check the fit and movement on your eye before confirming it is right.

Then comes the part first-timers worry about most — handling. We patiently teach you to insert, remove, and care for your lenses at the counter until you can do it confidently yourself. Most people get it within one relaxed session; nervous beginners are welcome to take all the time they need. You leave knowing your lenses fit properly and that you can manage them safely at home.

Contact Lenses vs Glasses — Which Is Right for You?

It is rarely one or the other — most people keep both and switch to suit the day. Here is how they compare:

Our optometrist will help you decide based on your prescription, tear film, and how you actually live — and most customers leave with both a great pair of glasses and lenses for active days.

Why Get Fitted at Eye Matrix — Not Just Bought Online

Buying contacts online by copying an old power skips the single most important step: the fitting. A lens that is the wrong base curve or diameter can starve the cornea of oxygen and cause infections, even if the power is "correct." A proper professional fitting protects your eyes:

Customers from Thaltej, Bodakdev, and across West Ahmedabad choose us for exactly this reassurance — the convenience of contacts, without gambling with their eye health.
