What are Scleral Lenses? A Comprehensive Guide to This Life-Changing Vision Solution

If you’ve ever struggled to find a comfortable and effective solution for your vision, scleral lenses might just be the answer. As contact lens specialists, we’ve seen firsthand how these lenses transform lives. Scleral lenses are a type of specialized contact lens that vaults over the cornea and rests gently on the white part of your eye (the sclera). This unique design creates a fluid-filled reservoir that provides clear, stable vision and all-day comfort.

Scleral lenses are ideal for patients with keratoconus, severe dry eye, or irregular corneas, and they’re a game-changer for those who have struggled with traditional contact lenses. Unlike standard lenses, scleral lenses are custom designed to fit your unique eye shape, making them a highly personalized solution. They also create a protective barrier that shields your cornea from irritation and dryness throughout the day.

If you’ve been told glasses or regular contact lenses won’t work for you, let’s talk about scleral lenses. They’re custom-fit just for your eyes and can help you see the world in a whole new way. Schedule an appointment today, and let’s explore how scleral lenses can improve your vision and quality of life.
