Contact Lenses: See Clearly Again
Scleral Contact Lenses for Keratoconus, Irregular Corneas, and Dry Eyes
Scleral gas permeable (GP) contact lenses can help you see more clearly and comfortably if you cannot wear regular contact lenses due to irregular corneas, keratoconus, dry eyes, etc. The lenses are designed to form a new optically clear surface, vaulting over the irregular cornea, then resting on the sclera or white surface of the eye. Scleral GP lenses are extremely comfortable because the lid doesn’t touch the lens while blinking since the lens edge tucks underneath the lids. Most patients report that they can’t even feel the lenses!

Get the Right Fit for Contact Lenses
They are called contact lenses for a good reason. They are in direct contact with your eyes. Therefore it takes a different type of eye exam than the one for glasses wearers. Our state of the art computerized examination equipment provides very exacting measurements to ensure you maximum comfort and vision.
A good contact lens fit starts with a thorough eye exam to ensure the most up-to-date prescription and rule out any pre-existing conditions that could interfere with contact lens wear or put you more at risk for complications due to wearing contact lenses. At your initial appointment, you will receive a contact lens evaluation designed especially for those who are switching to contacts. Unlike the annual routine eye exam we recommend for all patients, a contact lens exam focuses mainly on eye-health issues related to contacts. Once that evaluation is completed, the doctor will find a lens with exactly the right amount of curve, thickness and diameter for the patient’s particular vision needs.
Next will be your contact lens fitting of the lens to your eye. You will also receive detailed instructions on cleaning, storing, and handling of contacts.
