What Are Scleral Contact Lenses?
Scleral lenses are rigid gas permeable contacts that arch completely over the cornea and rest on the sclera (the white part of the eye). The fluid-filled space beneath creates a continuous layer of moisture, shielding the cornea and smoothing irregularities to provide crisp vision and lasting comfort.
