Contact Lens Insertion & Removal (I & R) Appointments
At Cambridge Eye Associates, we know that getting contact lenses is an exciting step toward clear and comfortable vision. Our experienced opticians will ensure your first contact experience is successful and comfortable.
Our appointments for insertion and removal (I & R) offer you the guidance and skills necessary to confidently manage your contact lenses.

Are You Ready for Contacts Lenses?
To determine if you or your child are ready for contact lenses, consider the following skills:
Comfort with Touching Eyes: You should be comfortable touching your eyes gently for insertion and removal.
Coordination: Adequate coordination to hold your eyelids open during the process.
Responsibility: Maturity and responsibility for the care of contact lenses.

Contact Lens I & R Appointments For Children
While children under eight may find inserting and removing their lenses challenging, exceptions may be made for specific purposes, such as amblyopia treatment or refractive asymmetry. Our doctors will work closely with you to determine the best approach for your child's eye care needs.
