Visual impairment caused by an irregularly shaped cornea in patients with keratoconus and other corneal irregularities can be effectively addressed with scleral contact lenses. Designed specifically to create a smoother and more properly contoured front surface of the eye, these contact lenses offer significantly improved clarity and greater comfort than other methods of vision correction.
Scleral lenses for keratoconus are larger diameter contact lenses that vault over the irregular corneal bulge to rest more comfortably on the white part of the eye, the sclera. Due to their configuration, these lenses offer improved stability during eye movements and help to keep the eyes well lubricated throughout the day.
Our eye doctors are skilled and experienced in fitting scleral lenses for patients with keratoconus as well as a variety of other ocular conditions.
