More people are turning to contact lenses every day to improve their vision. Contact Lens (Air Optix, Acuvue, Biofinity, FreshLook, Alcon, Precision1) technology has also been developed to help wearers not only correct for myopia, presbyopia, and astigmatism but also provide benefits like reshaping your cornea and give light adaptivity.
Scleral contact lenses are larger than conventional contacts and sit on the sclera (whites) of your eye, vaulting over the cornea. These contacts are a great option for patients who have trouble fitting into or finding comfort with conventional contacts.
If you are still having trouble focusing with conventional spherical contact lenses, then you might be a great candidate for aspheric contacts. Aspheric contact lenses help correct spherical aberrations caused when light entering your eye focuses in front of your retina, causing blurry vision.
If a standard contact lens shape can be characterized by saying it looks like a slice off the side of a beach ball, then toric lenses are shaped like a slice off the side of a donut. Because of the different shape, toric contact lenses offer different refractive benefits compared to other contact lenses and are generally used to treat symptoms of astigmatism.
Multifocal lenses provide wearers with the opportunity to help mitigate multiple visual ailments, including myopia, presbyopia, and astigmatism, all at the same time. Multifocal lenses have multiple prescriptions built in to make the most of your vision.
Hybrid lenses are designed with two materials; a soft “skirt” that surrounds a more rigid gas-permeable centre. This unique design allows patients to have the vision benefits that regular rigid gas-permeable lenses have while still maintaining the comfort of soft contact lenses.
Transitions contact lenses provide comfortable vision in any light. These lenses can help reduce the strain light can have on your eyes as well as absorb some of the UV radiation your eyes take in sunlight.

“Dr. Sameen Chatoo is an extremely pleasant and genuine person to be around. Top of the line service. She is extremely thorough with explanations and provides recommendations to assist your vision health. I drove 50 minutes to her office and have absolutely no regrets. Will be recommending to all my coworkers and friends. Thanks again doc, hope to see you soon.”
“Best place for eye checkup along with very qualified optometrists and the staff is very friendly, accommodating, helpful, and cooperative. One-stop solution for all your eye needs….”
“Dr. Chatoo is by far the kindest and most down-to-earth physician I have ever met. My cousin liked the glasses I got from her office so much that she called Dr. Chatoo to see if she could get herself a pair. Dr. Chatoo actually took the time to help my cousin find the glasses again, calling multiple different places and placing the order for her. She truly goes above and beyond for her clients, and I will be her patient for life. Thank you so much, Dr. Chatoo!”
“Had the best experience. Very chic and friendly place. Roya is one of the most friendly assistants. I came here for a visit before returning to uni, and she helped me get an appointment, AND my new eyeglasses ready all in less than a week. The doctor is also so detailed and helped explain everything concerning my eyes to me. Will definitely come back for my next check-up.”
