Brand Name Contact Lenses in Markham
ACUVUE®
Acuvue® Contacts are the most prescribed eye lenses in the world. The ACUVUE family of disposable contacts can correct most patients’ vision needs with exceptional comfort and handling, excellent visual clarity, uncompromising quality, and the added benefit of UV-blocking. Contact us to learn more about Acuvue® Contact lenses at our Markham eye clinic.
ALCON
Convenience. Comfort. Quality. Affordability. Performance – These traits are the foundation of our wide range of Alcon contact lenses. An AquaRelease moisturizing agent is released gradually as the day wears on – a little bit each time with every blink. That means time-release comfort for people who use Alcon lenses.
COOPERVISION
Cooper Harmony family of silicone hydrogel contact lenses are made from Aquaform Comfort Science Technology, a unique material that is highly breathable and moist. High levels of oxygen flow freely through the lens, helping to keep your eyes clear, white, and healthy looking. The naturally wet material of Coopervision eye lenses holds water within the lens making it soft, moist, and resistant to dehydration and protein deposits.
BAUSCH & LOMB
Freedom and flexibility to look your best. Bausch & Lomb eye contacts offer a wide range of soft contact lens choices for almost every type of vision correction, including those with astigmatism or presbyopia (the need for reading glasses).

Contact Lens FAQs
Do I need a contact lens fitting before getting contact lenses?
Yes. A contact lens fitting is required to determine the safest and most comfortable lens for your eyes. It includes measurements, lens selection, and an assessment of your eye health.
What types of contact lenses do you offer?
We offer soft disposable lenses, Toric lenses for astigmatism, multifocal lenses, rigid gas permeable (RGP) lenses, and Ortho-K lenses for myopia management.
Can I wear contact lenses if I have astigmatism?
Yes. Toric contact lenses are specifically designed to correct astigmatism and provide clear, stable vision throughout the day.
Can I wear contact lenses if I need reading glasses?
Yes. Multifocal contact lenses can help correct both distance and near vision, reducing or eliminating the need for reading glasses.
What are the best contact lenses for dry eyes?
Many modern contact lenses are designed with advanced moisture-retaining materials and high oxygen permeability to improve comfort for patients with dry eyes. Your optometrist can recommend the best option for your needs.
Are daily disposable contact lenses better than monthly lenses?
Both are excellent options. Daily disposable lenses offer convenience and hygiene, while monthly lenses may be more economical for some patients. The best choice depends on your lifestyle and eye health.
What are Ortho-K lenses?
Ortho-K lenses are worn overnight to gently reshape the cornea while you sleep. Many patients can see clearly during the day without needing glasses or contact lenses.
Can Ortho-K help slow myopia progression in children?
Yes. Ortho-K is commonly used as a myopia management option to help slow the progression of nearsightedness in children and teenagers.
Are contact lenses safe?
Yes. Contact lenses are very safe when properly fitted and worn according to your optometrist's recommendations. Regular eye exams and proper lens care are essential.
Can children wear contact lenses?
Yes. Many children and teens successfully wear contact lenses. Suitability depends on the child's maturity, prescription, and ability to follow proper hygiene practices.
Can I sleep in my contact lenses?
Most contact lenses should be removed before sleeping unless they have been specifically prescribed for overnight wear. Sleeping in lenses without professional guidance can increase the risk of complications.
How often should I replace my contact lenses?
Replacement schedules vary by lens type. Some lenses are replaced daily, while others are replaced every two weeks or monthly. Always follow your prescribed replacement schedule.
Why do my contact lenses feel uncomfortable or blurry?
Discomfort or blurry vision may be caused by dry eyes, lens deposits, an outdated prescription, improper lens fit, or an eye health issue. If symptoms persist, schedule an eye exam.
How often do I need a contact lens exam?
Most contact lens wearers should have a comprehensive eye exam and contact lens evaluation every year to ensure their prescription and lens fit remain appropriate.
