Department of Contact Lens
Contact Lenses
Contact lens are small, thin, curved transparent discs that are worn in apposition with the cornea. They may be corrective (in place of glasses), cosmetic, or therapeutic lens.
Contacts provide a safe and effective way to correct vision when used with care and proper supervision as only your eye specialist or your optometrist can decide whether you are a suitable candidate for contact lens use.
They can offer a good alternative to eyeglasses. They are optically superior to glasses as they move with the eye and hence do not cause peripheral distortions which are seen commonly in high powered spectacles.
