If you struggle with dry eyes, keratoconus, or other corneal irregularities, finding the right contact lenses can be challenging. Traditional lenses might not provide the comfort or vision correction you need. At Boston Mountain Eye Care, we specialize in advanced scleral lens fittings that offer unparalleled comfort and clarity, especially for those with complex eye conditions.

What Are Scleral Lenses?

Scleral lenses are larger-than-standard contact lenses that vault over the cornea and rest on the sclera (the white part of your eye). Their unique design creates a fluid reservoir between the lens and the cornea, offering continuous hydration while protecting your sensitive corneal surface. This makes them an ideal solution for people who have struggled with other types of contact lenses due to conditions like severe dry eye, keratoconus, post-LASIK complications, or other corneal diseases.

Why Choose Scleral Lenses?

  1. Superior Comfort: Traditional contact lenses can often irritate dry or irregular corneas, making them uncomfortable for all-day wear. Scleral lenses, by resting on the sclera and creating a cushion of hydration, provide remarkable comfort even in cases of extreme dryness or corneal irregularities.
  2. Enhanced Vision: Scleral lenses offer excellent vision correction for individuals with irregular corneas or high refractive errors. Their design allows for a more stable fit, giving you sharp, clear vision that is often superior to what is achievable with glasses or standard lenses.
  3. Protection for Sensitive Eyes: If you have a condition like keratoconus or have undergone corneal surgery, your eyes may be more sensitive. Scleral lenses provide a protective barrier that shields your cornea from further irritation, promoting overall eye health.
