Types Of Contact lenses

At **Focus Eye Clinic, Thane (Dr. Mohini Modak)**, contact lenses are usually prescribed based on your eye condition, lifestyle, and refractive error. Like most ophthalmology clinics, the lens options generally fall into standard medical categories rather than brand-specific types. Here are the **common types of contact lenses typically available / prescribed there**: ### 1. Soft Contact Lenses * Most commonly prescribed * Comfortable and easy to adapt to * Used for: * Myopia (short-sightedness) * Hypermetropia (long-sightedness) ### 2. Toric Contact Lenses * For **astigmatism** * Designed to correct irregular corneal curvature ### 3. Multifocal / Bifocal Contact Lenses * For **presbyopia** (age-related near vision difficulty) * Helps see both near and distance without glasses ### 4. Rigid Gas Permeable (RGP) Lenses * Harder than soft lenses but give sharper vision in some cases * Used for: * High astigmatism * Keratoconus * Irregular cornea cases ### 5. Cosmetic / Colored Contact Lenses * Mainly for appearance change or mild vision correction * Sometimes suggested if medically suitable ### 6. Therapeutic Contact Lenses (special cases) * Used after eye surgery or for corneal protection * Not for routine vision correction --- ### Important note (specific to Dr. Mohini Modak / Focus Eye Clinic) At clinics like Focus Eye Clinic in Thane, Dr. Mohini Modak typically decides the lens type only after: * Refraction test (power check) * Corneal examination * Tear film / dry eye evaluation * Lifestyle needs (screen time, sports, etc.) --- If you want, tell me your eye power or condition (like astigmatism, dry eyes, etc.), and I can suggest which lens type is most likely best for you before your visit.
