contact lens fitting
Eye measurement appointment
Contact lens fitting is the process by which an eye care professional measures and evaluates a patient's eyes to prescribe properly sized and shaped contact lenses.
The fitting involves measuring corneal curvature, assessing tear film quality, and determining the best lens type for the individual's vision needs and eye anatomy.
A poor fit can cause discomfort, blurred vision, or eye damage: The optometrist recommended a contact lens fitting before switching brands.
