An Alternative to Soft Lenses
Rigid gas permeable (RGP) lenses are effective contact lenses for patients with hard-to-fit eyes or certain medical conditions. RGP lenses offer some outstanding benefits and can help you achieve the clear vision you want and deserve.

The Benefits of RGP Lenses
Gas permeable contact lenses offer many benefits over other types of lenses, including:
- They retain their shape
- They are extremely durable
- They don’t contain water
- They can last for years
Book Your Contact Lens Exam & Fitting Today
The first step to receiving the right type of contact lens is to book a contact lens exam and fitting.
A proper fitting helps your eye doctor determine your contact prescription by measuring your eyes to find the correct size, style, and shape of contact lens needed. During this exam, your doctor can determine if you could benefit from a specialty contact lens such as RGP lenses.

Testimonials
I’ve never had an eye appointment before so I didn’t know what to expect. The staff was absolutely wonderful! Dr Heshmati was so kind and thorough and knowledgeable…he explained everything he was going to do so well and helped me with my prescription.
I had help from a wonderful lady whose name I didn’t catch…she helped me pick out the perfect frames for my new glasses and was so patient and helpful.
The staff was so friendly and approachable. I had a great experience and I highly recommend this clinic to anyone needing their eyes checked!

Best place to go to if you’re having your first contact lenses eye exam
The receptionist (Ms. Emma & Ms. Sam rat) are really nice and polite, helped with keeping my things safe and measuring my eyes!
Dr. Heshmati is really great too, before I was using glasses and he tested me with my glasses and apparently my glasses had the wrong prescription so I couldn’t see well with them. He even gave me a great discount offer I couldn’t refuse when buying contacts with them!
The helper (Ms. Sara) is so helpful as well and has such a positive attitude as well and super friendly too. She even assisted me with putting on contact lenses and taking them off as well.
Overall, I enjoyed my visit and I’m “empressed” with my visit here. Keep up the great work!
