Contact Lens Exams in Tri-Cities, TN

Find Your Perfect Fit in Contacts

Contact lenses provide a convenient alternative to glasses, but finding the right fit is essential for clear vision and long-term eye health.

Why a Contact Lens Exam Differs from a Regular Exam

Your Eyes Deserve More Than a One-Size-Fits-All Approach

Contact lens exams aren’t an add-on but a crafted experience. We take the time to understand how your eyes work, how they feel, and what your day-to-day demands from your vision.

Every lens is selected with intention, fitted with precision, and supported by technology that allows us to see more, so you can feel nothing but comfort. It’s not about adding lenses to your life. It’s about making them fit effortlessly into it.

What to Expect During Your Contact Lens Exam

Why Contact Lens Exams Matter?

A proper contact lens fitting helps prevent discomfort, dryness, and eye strain while ensuring optimal vision clarity. Poorly fitted lenses can lead to irritation, blurry vision, and even long-term damage to the eyes.

Dr. Bowen is kind, incredibly knowledgeable, and always takes time to fully explain complex issues to me in a manner that is easy to understand. I always enjoy his willingness to answer all of my questions, and I never leave feeling like something may have been missed. I’ve had complex issues with my eyes, and I’ve seen other well known doctors in our area, but I feel that the care I’ve received from Dr. Bowen and his level of expertise is superior. I trust that he has my best interest in mind and that is invaluable. He gives me information on warning signs to watch for and goes above and beyond to make sure my vision is protected. If you want a thorough eye exam that goes beyond what many offices do, schedule an appointment with Dr. Bowen.
