Starting Out Right

Confidence comes with practice.

Putting a lens on your eye for the first time can feel strange. Dr. Mustafa Rawji and our team take it slowly, fit lenses that suit your eyes and prescription, and make sure new wearers from York Mills–Silver Hills know how to care for them before they go home.

Great for first-timers

Hands-on instruction for insertion, removal, and cleaning, with time to practise at your own pace.

Fit checked on the eye

We evaluate a trial lens to see how it sits, moves, and feels as you blink and look around.

Lenses matched to you

Depending on your needs, options may include daily disposables, reusable lenses, toric, or multifocal designs.

What to Expect

What a fitting involves.

A fitting brings together an eye health review, lens selection, and hands-on coaching.

  1. Talk about how you will wear them

    Share your activities, schedule, past lens experience, and any dryness or comfort concerns.

  2. Assess and measure

    We check your vision and eye health and take the measurements needed for lens selection.

  3. Evaluate a trial lens

    Your optometrist checks the fit, movement, clarity, and comfort of the lens on your eye.

  4. Practise and take home a plan

    Learn insertion, removal, and care, and leave with a clear wearing and replacement schedule.

Teens and Contacts

Ready for lenses? Let's find out together.

Many families near York Mills–Silver Hills first consider contacts when a teen wants them for sports, dance, or simply a change from glasses. Readiness is about responsibility as much as age. Your optometrist will talk with you both about hygiene, wearing schedules, and what good lens habits look like.

During the fitting, we assess vision and eye health, take measurements, and evaluate a trial lens. Your teen will practise putting lenses in and taking them out with our support. Parents are welcome to stay and learn the routine too.

Adults Trying Lenses

It is never too late to try contacts.

Adults sometimes assume their prescription is too complicated for contacts. Astigmatism and presbyopia, the age-related change that makes near tasks harder, may still be manageable with the right lens design. Your optometrist will tell you honestly what is likely to work for your eyes.

We start with how you want to use lenses, whether full-time, for workouts, or for special occasions. Once you are fitted, we explain your wearing and replacement schedule. If you have pain, persistent redness, light sensitivity, discharge, or sudden vision changes, remove your lenses and call (416) 497-3705 promptly.

Is my teen old enough for contacts?

Readiness depends on maturity and good hygiene habits as much as age. Your optometrist can help you decide together.

Can I wear contacts with astigmatism or if I need reading help?

Often, yes. Toric and multifocal designs may be options depending on your prescription and eye health.

What if I cannot get the lens in during the appointment?

That is common at first. We give you time to practise and can arrange follow-up support if you need it.

How is a fitting different from a contact lens exam?

A fitting is for new wearers or lens changes and includes trial lenses and instruction. A contact lens exam is a routine check for current wearers.

Dr rawji and patty are great. I’ve been with them for over 10 years. He was concerned of an issue that I was getting and sent me to a specialist. Patty always make sure that I get Stylish classes every couple of years. Their new office is nice and it located close to 404 and 401.
