Did you know that there are now FDA
approved contact lenses that adjust to sunlight? These contact lenses darken automatically when you wear them in
bright sunlight and then lighten in darker lighting conditions, just like the
eyeglass lenses you have known about for years. They are available under the
name ACUVUE® OASYS Contact Lenses with Transitions® Light Intelligent
Technology. This convenient feature may be helpful for certain patients who are
particularly light sensitive but shouldn’t be regarded as a substitute for UV
protecting sunglasses which offer a great deal more protection.
If you would like to learn more about ACUVUE®
OASYS Contact Lenses with Transitions® Light Intelligent Technology please call Center
for Sight 508-730-2020, visit Center for Sight, Google or www.facebook.com/centerforsightfallriver to schedule an appointment.
Center for Sight is conveniently located
at 1565
North Main Street, Suite 406, Fall River, Massachusetts 02720 for patients from
Massachusetts or Rhode Island.
