Discover the Freedom and Convenience of Contact Lenses

  • Need bifocal or multifocal contacts?
  • Rigid gas permeable or soft lenses?
  • Disposables, dailies or colored contacts?

Contact lenses give wearers a full field of focused vision no matter where you look. Because they move with your eyes, contacts help allow you to track action with sharp and clear peripheral vision. Moreover, if you lead an active lifestyle, contacts provide more freedom and flexibility to enjoy your favorite sports.

A contact lens exam will help us determine the perfect contact lens fit for your eyes and lifestyle!

What to Expect From Your Contact Lens Exam

  • Regular eye exam

    During your comprehensive eye exam your optometrist will check that your eyes are healthy and will test your vision to determine your contact lens prescription.

  • Contact lens consultation

    During your contact lens exam your optometrist will check for dry eye symptoms and consult with you to determine what type of contact lenses are the best fit for your lifestyle and vision needs.

  • Contact lens fitting

    For ideal vision correction and comfort, contact lenses must fit well. Your optometrist will examine the size and shape of your cornea and pupil to ensure the right fit.

  • Contact lens trial and follow-up

    Your optometrist will insert trial lenses and ask you to keep them on for 15-20 minutes to be sure the fit is comfortable and vision is clear. After a few days, you'll come in for a follow-up evaluation.

Where Can I Get a Contact Lens Exam?

The right contact lenses, carefully fitted and prescribed by your optometrist, can provide many benefits and prevent discomfort and eye disease.

Once you have determined the right contact lens, you can start enjoying the benefits and freedom of daily or regular contact lens wear.

We offer contact lens exams at our eye clinic and will help determine the best contact lenses for your needs and eye shape. Simply schedule your appointment by contacting Rouse EyeCare Center in Lacey today.

Contact Lens Exams FAQs

Can dry eye sufferers wear contact lenses?

Usually, yes. While some types of contact lenses can aggravate symptoms of dry eye syndrome, such as eye dryness, redness and irritation, other contacts are perfectly suitable for dry eyes. Speak with an eye doctor near you regarding your dry eye symptoms, and they'll prescribe the perfect contact lenses for ultimate comfort.

Can a child wear contact lenses?

It's a case-by-case basis. Typically, eye doctors don’t prescribe contacts to children under the age of 11 or 12, though there are exceptions. Wearing contact lenses requires responsible care, including cleaning and disinfecting routines. Most teenagers can handle contact lens care if they’re motivated to wear contacts.

Do I need an eye exam and prescription for tinted contact lenses?

Yes! Even if you’re just using contacts to change the color of your eyes, you still need an eye exam and a prescription. Contact lenses are a medical device and require fitting by an eye doctor.

Quite simply outstanding professional eye care! I have been to several ophthalmologist's and optome... trists in the greater Olympia area.. These ones are by far the best. The testing and assessments ARE very thorough . This is a good thing. As far as glasses, frames , etc. They try to get you the best possible ones that your insurance will pay for. However IF you prefer less expensive options, simply let them know. There is no pressure just insist on the least expensive option and stay firm. The choice is yours. At the end of the day the quality here is the best I've ever seen and yes Dr. Rouse is phenomenal ! They treated my family friend Cheng superbly ~

I had an excellent experience at Rouse Eyecare Center. From the moment I walked in, the staff was wa... rm, welcoming, and highly professional. The team took the time to answer all my questions and made sure I felt comfortable throughout my visit.

The office is well-organized, and the selection of eyewear is fantastic. I truly appreciate the outstanding customer service and attention to detail. Highly recommend Rouse Eyecare Center to anyone looking for quality eye care and a friendly, efficient team!

I am deeply thankful for Dr. Rouse and his staff! We weren't turned away when we walked in right at ... opening even though we didn't have an appointment. Instead we were welcomed and never rushed out of there. I never felt like we were a burden walking in. I never felt like my son's needs were being overlooked. My son's serious eye concerns were thoroughly examined and a plethora or tests were ordered for over 3 hours. I could tell the doctor truly cared and was concerned for my son's issues. Thank you all!!!

I’ve been going to Rouse eye care for about 3 years now. The staff is king and courteous and Docto... r Rouse is fantastic. The cost is worth the experience. I get all my Oakley eye wear from them and the service and warranty is great.

Great experience and professional and helpful staff members.

This place is amazing! Everyone was super friendly and knowledgeable. I actually learned so much and... was educated about things that no other eye doctor has cared to bring up and I’ve been to many. They truly care about your eye health - present and future. The optician I worked with after my appointment was also great and helped me find a pair of glasses that worked well with my budget and contacts as well. I definitely recommend Dr. Rouse and his staff to everyone!

By far the most knowledgeable staff we have ever worked with. Or frame choices were the most informe... d we've ever made.
