What are Scleral Lenses?
Scleral lenses are specialized contact lenses that are larger than traditional contacts. They’re made to rest on the sclera, the white part of the eye, and create a tear-filled vault over the cornea. This unique design offers improved comfort and vision for those with irregular corneas and is an excellent choice for certain eye conditions, especially dry eye syndrome.
Are Scleral Lenses Right for You?
Patients who cannot wear traditional contact lenses because of irritation or chronic dry eye may benefit from scleral contact lenses. They are also great for those with corneal irregularities or post-surgical complications. The sturdy design of scleral lenses makes them more durable than traditional lenses and helps your eyes hold their spherical shape, which makes them a useful tool for eye conditions that misshape or elongate the eye, like keratoconus and myopia. At Bristol Family Eyecare, we will take the time to evaluate your eyes and determine if scleral lenses are the right choice for you.
IT STARTS WITH AN EYE EXAM & CONTACT LENS FITTING
We understand that every eye is unique, especially when it comes to fitting contact lenses. That’s why we begin with a comprehensive eye exam, a critical step in ensuring your scleral lenses are perfectly suited to your vision needs. This exam isn’t just about checking your sight — it’s about understanding the specific characteristics of your eyes. By integrating advanced eye assessment with precise lens fitting, we’re committed to providing you with an unmatched level of personalized eye care.
