Education and Preparation for Your Custom Scleral Lenses

After finding the right trial lens for you, we move to the next step: creating your custom scleral lenses. This stage focuses on precision and preparation to ensure your lenses fit perfectly, feel comfortable, and provide the best vision possible. By the time your lenses arrive, you’ll be fully equipped to use and care for them confidently.

Designing Your Custom Lenses

Your eyes are as unique as your fingerprint, and your scleral lenses are custom-made to meet your specific needs. During the trial fitting, we gather precise data about your eyes, which becomes the template for your new lenses.

Custom Precision

Using advanced imaging technology, we measure the shape, size, and curvature of your cornea and sclera. These measurements help us:

• Map the curves and elevations of your eye surface
• Identify areas where the lens must clear the cornea
• Ensure the lens aligns perfectly with your sclera

This data is sent to a specialized lab, where your lenses are crafted using cutting-edge technology. Each lens is meticulously designed to match your eye's anatomy, delivering unparalleled comfort and clarity. The result is a lens that feels like it was made just for you.

Breathable Materials

Scleral lenses are made from materials that allow oxygen to pass through, promoting eye health and preventing dryness or irritation. This breathability is particularly beneficial for patients with corneal conditions or dry eye syndrome, ensuring both comfort and long-term wellness.
