Full Corneal Coverage: Scleral lenses are larger than traditional contact lenses, and they do not touch the cornea directly. Instead, they create a tear-filled space (reservoir) between the lens and the cornea. This can be beneficial for people with irregular corneas or conditions like keratoconus, as it provides a smoother, more even surface for vision correction. Improved Comfort: The liquid reservoir between the lens and the cornea helps keep the eye hydrated throughout the day, reducing the discomfort often associated with dry eyes. This makes scleral lenses more comfortable to wear for extended periods. Vision Correction: Scleral lenses can correct a wide range of refractive errors, including myopia (nearsightedness), hyperopia (farsightedness), astigmatism, and presbyopia. They are also suitable for individuals with irregular corneas or vision issues that cannot be adequately corrected with traditional contact lenses or eyeglasses. Stable Fit: Scleral lenses are more stable on the eye compared to some other types of contact lenses. This stability is especially important for individuals with irregular corneas or those who engage in activities that require secure vision correction, such as sports. Protection: The larger size of scleral lenses can offer added protection to the cornea by shielding it from dust, debris, and other environmental factors. This protection can be particularly useful for individuals with sensitive or compromised corneas. Longer Wear Time: Scleral lenses are designed for extended wear, and many people find they can wear them comfortably all day without experiencing discomfort or dryness. Customized Fitting: Fitting scleral lenses requires precise measurements and customization by an eye care professional. These lenses are tailored to the unique shape and needs of each individual’s eyes. Keratoconus Management: Scleral lenses are often used to manage keratoconus, a condition where the cornea becomes progressively thin and cone-shaped. They provide stable and clear vision for many people with this condition. Post-Surgery Rehabilitation: Scleral lenses can also be used in post-corneal surgery cases to improve vision and comfort during the healing process.
