When standard soft lenses can't deliver clear, comfortable vision, specialty lenses are the answer. We fit scleral lenses for irregular corneas and severe dry eye, and multifocal RGPs for presbyopia.
Scleral lenses for keratoconus and post-surgical corneas
Scleral lenses for severe dry eye and ocular surface disease
Scleral lenses for corneal scarring
Multifocal Rigid Gas Permeable (RGP) lenses
Custom corneal mapping and topography
Multiple follow-ups to dial in fit and comfort
Scleral lenses are larger than regular contacts. Instead of resting on the cornea, they vault over it and land softly on the white of the eye (the sclera). The extra size makes them easier to handle, more stable on the eye, and far less likely to dislodge. They're rigid gas permeable, so oxygen still reaches the cornea — and the space between lens and cornea holds a thin reservoir of fluid that keeps dry eyes comfortable for hours.
A specialty fit takes more time than a standard contact lens fitting, and that's by design. We map the surface of your eye, select a trial lens, and refine the fit across follow-up visits — typically at one week, one month, and beyond — until your vision and comfort are stable.
