Proudly serving Florida’s Duval and St. Johns counties for more than 51 years.
We offer a wide selection of contact lenses including disposable soft contact, bifocal/multifocal, toric, and colored lenses. Whether you wear daily, weekly or monthly disposables, or conventional (vial) lenses, check out our selection of lenses that fit your needs.
A good contact lens fit starts with a thorough eye exam to ensure the most up-to-date prescription and rule out any pre-existing conditions that could interfere with contact lens wear.
Dr. Merritt will determine the best fitting lens based on your lifestyle needs and the shape and health of your eye. In most cases, you'll have the opportunity to try lenses on the same day as your exam. You can even go home with a few samples before making a final decision.
We follow up the initial fitting and then make any necessary changes in fit or materials to get you the best possible fit. Our Jacksonville optometrist will teach all our patients proper contact lens care and also possible consequences if proper care is not taken. Then we continue with long-term follow-up to monitor the condition of the lenses and to ensure that proper hygiene is being maintained.

An often unknown fact is that not all patients wear contact lenses as their primary source of vision correction.
Disposable contact lenses are generally considered to be far superior in comfort and wearability than hard and rigid lenses.
These rigid lenses aren’t as popular or well-known as soft lenses, but they offer the advantages of durability, crisp vision.

Toric contact lenses are designed to correct astigmatism.
Bifocal and multifocal lenses are also available in contact lenses in both soft and rigid varieties.
Challenges such as astigmatism, presbyopia and dry eyes needn’t be a barrier to contact lens wear.
