Contact Lens Exams & Fittings in Flower Mound, TX

More Than a Prescription — A Custom Fit

A contact lens prescription is not the same as a glasses prescription. Contact lenses sit directly on the eye, so a proper fitting requires additional measurements of your corneal shape, pupil size, tear film quality, and eyelid anatomy. At PersonalEyes Vision Care, every contact lens fitting begins with a comprehensive eye exam followed by specialized testing to ensure your lenses correct your vision, fit properly, and maintain your eye health.

Whether you are a first-time wearer or switching from another practice, Dr. Patel will take the time to find the lens that works best for your unique eyes. We fit everything from daily disposables to specialty scleral lenses — because no two eyes are the same.

• Keratoconus — scleral and hybrid lenses that vault over the irregular cornea for clear, stable vision
• Post-surgical corneas — custom lenses for eyes after LASIK, PRK, corneal transplant, or cataract surgery
• Severe dry eye — scleral lenses that bathe the cornea in a reservoir of tears throughout the day
• High prescriptions — custom soft or rigid lenses for extreme myopia, hyperopia, or astigmatism
• Presbyopia — advanced multifocal designs that eliminate the need for reading glasses

Conditions That May Qualify

• Keratoconus — progressive corneal thinning that causes distorted vision not fully correctable with glasses
• Corneal irregularity — from trauma, surgery (post-LASIK, post-transplant), or disease
• High anisometropia — a large difference in prescription between the two eyes that causes intolerable image size disparity in glasses
• Aphakia — absence of the natural lens after cataract surgery without an implant
• High myopia or hyperopia — extreme prescriptions where glasses become impractically thick and distort peripheral vision
• Severe dry eye — when scleral lenses are required to protect and hydrate the corneal surface

How Coverage Works

Most major vision plans — including VSP, EyeMed, Davis Vision, and Spectera — provide enhanced benefits for medically necessary contact lenses that go beyond the standard contact lens allowance. In many cases, medical insurance (such as Aetna, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Cigna, or UnitedHealthcare) may also cover medically necessary lenses when billed as a medical claim rather than a routine vision claim.

Dr. Patel will determine whether your condition qualifies, document the medical necessity, and our team will work with your insurance to maximize your benefits. Many patients are surprised to learn that their specialty lenses are partially or fully covered.
