Clear Vision with Scleral Lenses in Norwell
We provide scleral lenses to help patients with dry eyes, keratoconus, and other corneal conditions achieve clearer, more comfortable vision. These lenses offer an ideal solution for those who find traditional contacts uncomfortable or ineffective.
What Are Scleral Lenses?
Scleral lenses are large, gas-permeable lenses that rest on the sclera (the white part of your eye). Unlike traditional lenses, scleral lenses don’t touch the cornea. Instead, they vault over it, creating a liquid cushion that keeps your eyes hydrated and provides stable, clear vision.
The Benefits of Scleral Lenses
Enjoy a Comfortable Fit: Scleral lenses avoid contact with your sensitive cornea, making them a great choice if you’ve experienced discomfort with other lenses.
Improve Vision for Irregular Corneas: If you have keratoconus or other corneal irregularities, scleral lenses offer excellent clarity.
Relieve Dry Eyes: These lenses maintain moisture with a fluid reservoir, providing lasting relief from dry eye symptoms.
Long-Lasting Durability: Scleral lenses are durable, offering reliable vision correction for extended wear.
Who Can Benefit From Scleral Lenses?
Scleral lenses work well for patients with:
- Keratoconus
- Dry Eye Syndrome
- Corneal Ectasia
- Post-LASIK Complications
- Irregular Corneas
