Contact Lens Options for Your Pediatric Patients
by: Steve Cogger
Pediatric patients are some of the most special patients we see in any practice. When infants present for contact lenses, we all know it is a medical necessity.
The practitioners at my practice believe that contact lenses should not be any more of a burden on the parents than they have to be. And let’s face it, inserting and removing lenses on an infant or a toddler is not an easy task for most.
Regardless, every parent or caregiver is instructed on the insertion and removal of their child’s contact lens. Despite our best efforts, some parents are still hesitant to perform this task at home. In these cases, the child is fit with an extended wear lens made of either soft silicone or an approved gas permeable material. We love watching these kids grow, so we have the parents bring in their child on prescribed schedule to have the lens removed, cleaned, and re-inserted.
Many of the children who have worn lenses in this modality are growing up with superb vision. Some are learning to insert and remove their own lenses as early as age 4! Close monitoring by both the contact lens fitters and the referring doctor leads to happy and successful patients.

Focus on Features When Buying a Digital Camera
Being well informed about the main digital camera features before shopping means you will know which are worth the extra cost. Reading reviews and talking cameras with friends will be helpful, but here are the key points to consider.
The first thing you will notice when looking at digital cameras is the term megapixel is used often. Pixels are the colored dots that make up a digital image. The term megapixel means one million pixels. Most models are between two and five megapixels.
The more megapixels the sharper the image, generally, but the size of enlargement is the important issue. You will be okay with three megapixels for enlargements up to an 8x10, but for larger photos you'll want more. If you plan to go big, the extra expense for a five megapixel is worth it. But save your money if you will use the photos...

Bifocal Contact Lens Basics
Bifocal Contact Lens Basics
by: Jay Moncliff
As we age, many of us notice that we can?t read as well as we used to. We hold things out further and further, literally at arm?s length, until friends and relatives inevitable begin joking about our arm?s getting shorter.
For many of us, presbyopia is a fact of life.
Simply defined, presbyopia is the inability to focus on items in close range.
This condition is caused by the lens in the eye becoming less and less flexible as we age.
Unfortunately, most of us will need corrective lenses and even bifocals at some point as this condition worsens.
Until recently, bifocal wearers had few options when choosing corrective eyeware.
Glasses with bifocal lenses were the most common option.
Luckily, no-line bifocal lenses were developed, and the glasses became somewhat more attractive.
Some struggled with the ?one contact lens? option, called monovision,...

How Do Colored Contact Lenses Work?
How Do Colored Contact Lenses Work?
by: Steve Cogger
The ability to change your eye color simply by
putting on a contact lens is becoming more popular
every day. Many people like them for fun and never
really care how colored contact lenses work. If
you are a little more inquisitive, read on and I
will tell you exactly how colored contact lenses
work.
The concept of colored contact lenses is to cover
the iris with a new color. In general, neat
colored contact lenses come in two varieties;
opaque colors and enhancement tints. Both designs
work well depending on the iris color they are
covering. One amazing feature of colored lenses is
that they never look exactly the same on one
person as they do on another.
Opaque lenses are intended to change an eye’s
color entirely. Opaque lenses can be used to
change a green eye blue or brown eye green. They
usually have a clear pupil opening...

How to Buy Contact Lenses Online
How to Buy Contact Lenses Online
by: Dr. Silvia Bernard
Over the past several years I've helped hundreds of customers save thousands of dollars by ordering their contacts online. At first, there were a lot of questions about the ethics involved, prescriptions, and quality of the products sold online. However, those concerns have all but dissolved as online sales have become an industry standard. It's become easier, cheaper, and customers have grown to learn that the quality of lenses received is equal to those purchased from a doctor or eye care store.
How do these online companies provide the same products at a lower price? It's easy really. They sell an incredibly high volume of lenses, and they have a much lower overhead expense than a brick-and-mortar retail store.
There are many online retailers to choose from, but I would suggest sticking to the largest and oldest companies who have proven their reputation over the years....
