Aspheric contact lenses are lenses that are specifically designed for individuals with mild astigmatism. Astigmatism occurs when a patient’s cornea or lens is irregularly shaped. To compensate for the unique curvature caused by astigmatism, specially shaped contact lenses are needed.

Although individuals with high astigmatism are often prescribed toric contact lenses. Aspheric lenses are one way for individuals with low astigmatism to achieve crisper, clearer vision.

Toric lenses are also used to correct astigmatism. Toric lenses contain different prescriptions along the horizontals and verticals of the lens. This gives them the ability to counteract astigmatism and provide patients with clear, crisp vision.

Toric lenses are weighted at the bottom to orientate themselves properly when you blink, ensuring that the prescriptions on the lens match the prescription of your eye.

Multifocal contact lenses work like multifocal eyeglasses and are specifically designed for those who have presbyopia. Presbyopia occurs as we age and affects the lenses in our eyes, making it difficult to focus on objects that are up close.

Multifocal contact lenses offer multiple prescriptions in a single lens. These specially designed contact lenses can ensure your vision is clear at all distances. They often work for those who do not need distance correction, as well as those who are nearsighted or farsighted.
