Contact Lens Fitting in St. Maria, Curaçao
Switching from glasses to contact lenses — or wearing contact lenses for the first time — requires a professional fitting to ensure your lenses sit correctly, feel comfortable, and support your eye health. At Mi Optica in St. Maria, Curaçao, our qualified opticians perform thorough contact lens fittings tailored to your vision needs, eye anatomy, and lifestyle. Don’t settle for lenses that slip or cause discomfort — get fitted correctly from the start.
request an appointmentDuring your contact lens fitting at Mi Optica, our optician will first ask about your daily routine, hobbies, and work environment to determine which type of lens best suits your lifestyle. Daily disposables, monthly wear, toric lenses for astigmatism, multifocal lenses, and extended-wear options are all available. We then measure the curve and diameter of your eye to ensure the lens sits in precisely the right position — lenses that are incorrectly fitted can shift, cause irritation, scratch the cornea, or impair vision.
First-time wearers receive hands-on training in proper insertion, removal, and lens care. A follow-up appointment is scheduled to confirm the lenses are working correctly and comfortably. We also fit specialized medical contact lenses for conditions including keratoconus, corneal dystrophy, trauma recovery, dry eye management, drooping eyelids, and twitching eye movements. We are specialists in sclera lenses — ask your eye doctor for a referral if complex lenses are needed. Request a Contact Lens Fitting
Contact Lens Fitting FAQs
What happens during a contact lens fitting at Mi Optica?
Our optician discusses your lifestyle and vision needs, then measures the curve and diameter of your eyes to select the best fitting lens. You’ll try a trial pair, receive insertion and removal training, and return for a follow-up appointment to confirm the fit and your visual comfort.
Can I use my eye doctor’s prescription for contact lenses?
An eye doctor’s prescription provides the vision correction for each eye but does not include the curve and diameter measurements needed for contact lenses. A dedicated contact lens fitting at Mi Optica is required to ensure a safe and accurate fit.
What types of contact lenses does Mi Optica fit?
Mi Optica fits daily, bi-weekly, monthly, and yearly soft contact lenses, as well as toric lenses (for astigmatism), multifocal lenses, RGP lenses, and sclera lenses for complex prescriptions. Medical contact lenses for conditions like keratoconus are also available.
Do I need a prescription for color contact lenses?
Yes — a valid contact lens prescription is required for all lenses, including cosmetic color lenses, even if you don’t need vision correction. This protects your eye health and ensures the lenses fit correctly. Call +5999-888 5858 to book your fitting.
