Contact Lens Examinations in North York

Precision Contact Lens Care at DeSouza Optometry

​​​​​​​At DeSouza Optometry, contact lens examinations are approached with the same level of precision and care as any specialty service. Contact lenses sit directly on the eye, making proper fitting, material selection, and ongoing monitoring essential for both clear vision and long-term eye health.

Whether you are new to contact lenses or have worn them for years, our North York clinic provides personalized contact lens care tailored to your prescription, eye health, and lifestyle demands.

What Is a Contact Lens Examination?

A contact lens exam is more comprehensive than a routine eye exam. In addition to determining your prescription, we evaluate how lenses interact with the surface of your eyes to ensure optimal comfort, oxygen delivery, and ocular health.

This is especially important for patients with dry eyes, astigmatism, presbyopia, or those wearing contacts for long hours.

What’s Included in Our Contact Lens Exams

Our contact lens examinations include:

• Comprehensive contact lens assessment

• Detailed corneal measurements

• Tear film and dry eye evaluation

• Lens fitting and movement assessment

• Trial lenses when needed

• Education on safe lens wear and care

• Follow-up visits to confirm comfort and vision

We take the time to ensure your lenses fit properly—not just on day one, but over time.

Contact Lenses We Fit

We fit a wide range of modern contact lenses, including:

• Daily disposable contact lenses

• Monthly and bi-weekly lenses

• Toric lenses for astigmatism

• Multifocal contact lenses

• Specialty and custom contact lenses such as RGP, Scleral and Ortho K lenses

Each recommendation is based on your eye health, prescription stability, and visual needs.

Why Proper Contact Lens Care Matters

Poorly fitted or outdated contact lenses can increase the risk of:

• Dry eye symptoms

• Redness and irritation

• Infections and inflammation

• Reduced oxygen to the cornea

• Suboptimal visual acuity

Regular contact lens examinations help prevent complications and maintain comfortable, healthy vision.
