Antelope Valley Optometric Center offers a wide range of contact lens designs, including:
Spherical lenses are the most common kind of contact lenses. They have the same prescription power through the whole lens and treat nearsightedness (myopia) or farsightedness (hyperopia).
Toric lenses contain more than one prescription power because they correct not just nearsightedness or farsightedness, but also astigmatism.
Multifocal lenses have two or more prescriptions. They are the contact lens version of bifocal glasses as they correct both nearsightedness and farsightedness.
The optometrists at Antelope Valley Optometric Center recommend the best lens type for each patient based on their prescription and specific vision care needs.
Antelope Valley Optometric Center offers a variety of options, including:
