Medical Contact Lenses

We are internationally recognized innovators, educators, and researchers in the contact lens field. Forefront Eye Care (formerly Korb & Associates) is one of New England's largest specialty contact lens practices. Forefront Eye Care's Medical Contact Lens Service is internationally renowned for its expertise, specializing in those patients requiring complex contact lens fittings for irregular corneas, lid irregularities, scars and reverse ocular surface problems. We have extensive experience caring for difficult-to-fit patients with keratoconus, post-traumatic and post-surgical problems, corneal transplantation, ocular surface rehabilitation, eyelid irregularities, congenital deformities, high refractive errors, severe dry eye, anterior segment as well as orthokeratology and bifocal lenses. Our contact lens laboratory maintains an extensive inventory of diagnostic contact lenses, including the majority of manufacturers, which facilitates and expedites the fitting process.

With greater sensitivity to infection that emerged as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, touchless lens fitting is the safest possible option. Impression and topography-based fitting eliminate materials and lenses that are shared between patients. We are one of the few practices in the area that feature topography-guided WAVE lenses and the only practice in New England to offer EyePrint Pro, an impression-molded scleral device.
