Scleral Lenses
A Guide To Scleral Lenses
Scleral lenses are a specialized type of gas-permeable contact lens designed to vault over the cornea and rest on the sclera (the white part of the eye). These lenses create a fluid-filled reservoir that provides continuous hydration to the cornea while enhancing vision.
Despite their larger size, the lenses rest on the sclera rather than the sensitive cornea, often making them more comfortable than standard contacts.
A Life-Changing Advantage
Scleral lenses are highly beneficial for patients with:
- Keratoconus and Irregular Corneas: Help correct vision distortions caused by irregular corneal shapes.
- Severe Dry Eye Syndrome: The fluid-filled chamber provides constant hydration, reducing discomfort and dryness.
- High Prescriptions & Astigmatism: Those with strong prescriptions or high astigmatism can benefit from better vision and stability compared to traditional contact lenses.
- Post-Surgical Vision Correction: Patients recovering from corneal transplants or other surgeries may use scleral lenses to enhance comfort and vision.
Many patients comfortably wear scleral lenses all day. However, proper care and regular check-ups are necessary to ensure long-term eye health.
Our experts specialize in custom scleral lens fittings for your specific eye shape. We ensure optimal vision correction and comfort by designing lenses that fit each patient’s eye shape perfectly.
