Scleral Lenses Explained

Scleral contact lenses are large, gas-permeable lenses that cover a significant portion of the eye, resting on the sclera (the white part of the eye) while leaving a vault of space over the cornea. Unlike traditional contacts, these lenses do not touch the cornea directly, making them an ideal solution for various eye conditions.

The benefits of scleral lenses include:

  1. Size and Coverage: Scleral lenses are larger in diameter, ensuring stability on the eye and reducing the risk of dislodgment.
  2. Scleral Vault: The lens creates a vault over the cornea, eliminating direct contact.
  3. Customization: They are individually crafted based on precise measurements of your eye. This customization ensures a perfect fit, maximizing comfort and visual acuity.

Are Scleral Lenses Right for You?

Here’s who can benefit from these specialized lenses:

Scleral lenses provide stable vision by vaulting over the cornea's irregular shape, making them ideal for individuals with keratoconus.

arrow-circle-right-3 arrow-circle-right-3-light Dry Eye Sufferers

People with chronic dry eyes find relief with scleral lenses because they keep a reservoir of moisture between the lens and the eye, reducing discomfort and irritation.

arrow-circle-right-3 arrow-circle-right-3-light Irregular Astigmatism

Individuals with irregular astigmatism, where the cornea or lens has an irregular shape, achieve clear and stable vision with scleral lenses that mask these irregularities.

Those with high prescriptions or extreme nearsightedness, farsightedness, or astigmatism can achieve sharp, clear vision with custom-fit scleral lenses.

Conditions like Stevens-Johnson syndrome or ocular surface diseases that affect the cornea can be managed more comfortably with scleral lenses.
