Get a free lens and see the difference. Dr. Vanderlei of Exact Eye Care invites you to the clinic at 318 E. 5th St. next Thursday at 10 a.m. for a Storm Lake United Coffee.
Dr. Clarence Vanderlei of Exact Eye bets you will like the new contact lenses he’s selling. In fact, he’s inviting you to pop one in free of charge at next Thursday’s Chamber Coffee, and compare it to the contact in your other eye.
Most likely you will notice the superior comfort, clarity of vision and moisture retention for which Ideal SiHy Dailies are known, says Dr. Vanerlei. “You don’t notice that they’re in.”
If you are not a patient at Exact Eye Care, bring your contact lens prescription to the Storm Lake United Coffee at 10 a.m. Jan. 29. With a full range of Ideal single vision contacts in stock, the staff has one for you to try on the spot.
The promotion is modeled after the Pepsi Challenge, popular in the 1970s. According to the commercials, the blindfolded taste testers preferred Pepsi over Coke.
Beyond superior quality and comfort, Ideal SiHy Dailies have another convincing selling point. They are sold for around half the price of other contact lenses.
And don't look for them online because Ideal SiHy Dailies are only sold at select vision care clinics. Exact Eye Care is the exclusive provider in our area.
Patients would have to travel to Sioux Falls, S.D. or Vermillion, S.D. to find the Ideal product.
SiHy Dailies feature AI-driven optics, resulting in exceptional clarity and all-day comfort for the wearer, according to the company.
The lenses utilize an advanced aspheric design engineered to reduce distortion, distribute weight evenly and minimize friction points for a wear experience patients describe as "feeling nothing.”
Made from an advanced silicone hydrogel, the lenses hold moisture better, reducing itchiness.
Come to Thursday’s event. Enjoy coffee and meet the team as the clinic celebrates bringing this cutting-edge technology exclusively to our region.
