As an area eye care leader, we offer the very best contact lens materials and most technologically advanced contact lens designs available. We specialize in contact lenses that you can wear daily, monthly or even continuously. We can fit anyone, we guarantee it. From patients with astigmatism to computer needs to sport contact lenses and even multifocal needs, our program is simple, but your benefits are vast. If you currently wear or want to wear contact lenses choosing us is your best, first step.
 

Our Vision Shaping System

Corneal Refractive Therapy or CRT is an exciting vision technology that corrects patient’s vision while giving the freedom from wearing daytime eyewear or contact lenses.

Corneal Refractive Therapy is the non-surgical approach to reshaping your corneas while you sleep. Wearing a special contact lens while you sleep gently reshapes your corneas. Upon waking, you remove your CRT lenses and have the temporary benefit of clear, natural vision.

 
Now you can have all of the benefit of an active lifestyle without the need for daytime vision correction.

Advanced Contact Lenses

If you have ever been told that you cannot wear contact lenses because of this or that, that only “hard” lenses were the only choice for your eyes, or if you have worn contact lenses but have just not been satisfied with the visual clarity and comfort, we now have the materials and technology for you.

  Advanced Retinal Screening

Consistent with the recommendations of the American Optometric Association and the American Academy of Ophthalmology, Northwest Eye Care strongly recommends that all patients receive a retinal-screening test along with their routine eye examination. Retinal screenings helps detect such problems as macular degeneration, glaucoma, retinal holes or detachments, and many systemic vascular problems such as, diabetic retinopathy, hypertension and arteriolosclerosis.

In the past, the only way to evaluate a patient's retina completely was to dilate the pupil with eye drops, wait 20 to 30 minutes, and examine the retina through an instrument with bright lights. This procedure causes the patient’s vision to be blurry and their eyes to be very light sensitive for four or five hours because of the dilation of the pupil. Most patients dislike these temporary effects.
Another option is now available. Recently, a laser instrument called an Optomap has been developed that enables your doctor to perform a thorough retinal screening examination without dilation. Lakeland Vision Clinic has the Optomap technology available, so all patients now have a choice of retinal screening methods.
