Neurolens is a unique lens design that utilizes contoured prism to change the way light enters the eye.
Rather than the eye overworking to get to correct posture or alignment, the prism shifts the image to reach the eye, which creates more comfortable and clear vision.
Another exciting feature of Neurolens is the ability to increase reading speeds. One study found that patients who wear Neurolens were able to read at faster speeds than those wearing traditional lenses with no prism.

They don’t weigh down your face. They usually don’t fall off (or out). You don’t have to keep track of them... and they basically allow you to be you. Contact lenses are also very comfortable and should be worn with ease. They also allow for improved peripheral vision, and may even boost your self-esteem.
Some patients love their contacts so much, they’ll go as far as hiding symptoms because they don’t want to change their daily routine.
