RGP (Rigid Gas Permeable) Contact Lenses

Rigid Gas Permeable (RGP) contact lenses are durable, hard lenses made from a plastic that allows oxygen to pass through to the eye. Unlike soft contact lenses, RGP lenses maintain their shape on the eye's surface, offering clear vision and comfort. They are effective for correcting various vision problems, including astigmatism. RGP lenses require a period of adjustment but generally provide sharper vision compared to soft lenses. They are also more resistant to buildup from protein and lipids, making them easier to clean and longer-lasting. Regular eye check-ups are important for proper fit and eye health.
