What To Expect During a Contact Lens Fitting At New Vision Optical Wilmette, IL
At New Vision Optical Boutique many of our patients opt for contact lenses instead of eyeglasses or surgery for their vision correction. Contacts have a wide variety of benefits over the other options, including a superior field of vision, comfort, and looks. While one method isn't any better than the others and only you can decide if contact lenses are right for you, a growing percentage of our patients are opting for the ease of contacts for their vision needs. A contact lens exam takes longer than a traditional eye examination, so make sure to leave more time in your schedule when you make an appointment with our office.

- Daily disposable lenses
