Your Home for Contact Lenses
Contact lenses offer a convenient alternative to eyeglasses for improved vision, but they need to fit well for proper comfort and health. If your contacts irratate your eyes, it can negatively impact your vision and your overall eye health. Properly fitted lenses are essential for maintaining eye health and comfort.
At Dr. Bishop & Associates, we recognize that every eye is unique. That’s why we take precise measurements to achieve a perfect fit for your contact lenses. For those needing specialized care, we provide a variety of specialty lenses to safeguard your eyes and improve your vision.

How Does a Poor Fit Affect Your Eyes?
Ill-fitting contact lenses can lead to various eye issues, including:
- Feeling something in the eye (foreign object or scratch)
- Discomfort
- Redness
- Dry eyes
- Excess watering
- Irritated or stinging eyes
- Reduced visual clarity
- Discharge (eye secretions)
Our Specialty Contact Lenses
Your vision is as unique as you are, which means your contact lens needs are, too. Just because a particular brand works for someone else doesn’t mean it’s right for you. Custom specialty contact lenses are tailored to meet your specific eye care needs. We assess your eyes and vision to provide a comfortable fit and clearer sight.
We offer a range of custom contact lenses to suit your individual needs.
Orthokeratology (ortho-k), also known as corneal reshaping technology (CRT), uses uniquely formed contact lenses that are to be worn overnight to help reshape the cornea. In the morning, the contacts are removed, and the corneas temporarily retain their new shape and provide clear vision throughout the day.
Ortho-k lenses are commonly used as a method of myopia progression control.
While standard gas-permeable contact lenses only cover the surface of the cornea, scleral lenses also cover a portion of the sclera (the white part of the eyes). Since the lens never comes into contact with the cornea, this lens is beneficial for many corneal conditions, such as keratoconus.
Scleral contacts are also effective for extreme cases of dry eye, acting as a reservoir by holding tears to hydrate the eye.

Hybrid contact wearers offer the perfect blend for contact wearers who crave the clarity of hard lenses with the comfort of soft ones. These lenses feature a rigid center that provides clear vision, which is especially beneficial for those with irregular corneas. Surrounding this is a soft outer section, or “skirt,” that improves comfort and provides a snug fit.

Although soft lenses are best known for their comfort, they are also great for more complicated vision correction. For some patients, options like the NovaKone lenses provide significantly better vision than glasses or regular contacts. There are even soft lenses for those with higher prescriptions (spherical from +30.00 to -30.00 and astigmatism up to -10.00).
As our eyes age, we experience changes in our visual abilities. Significant changes to our vision tend to occur by our late 40s. One universal eye issue related to aging is difficulty focusing, usually caused by presbyopia. It’s the age when everyone needs reading glasses, even if you’ve had perfect vision all your life.
Age-related changes can complicate things, more so if you already need glasses to correct your distance vision. Multifocal contacts offer multiple corrective powers or prescriptions within different margins of a single lens. With multifocal lenses, you can see clearly at all distances without changing your eyewear.
