Scleral Contact Lenses
Discover the benefits of scleral lenses, offering maximum clarity and ultimate comfort for your eyes.
Scleral contact lenses are an extra-large type of rigid gas permeable lenses. Unlike traditional contacts, scleral lenses vault over the entire cornea, leaving a gap between the lens and the corneal surface. They rest on the white part of your eye (your sclera).
Scleral lenses are beneficial for managing eye conditions such as:
- Keratoconus
- Astigmatism
- Dry Eyes
- Giant papillary conjunctivitis (GPC)
- Post-refractive surgery (i.e., LASIK, PRK)/li>
- Presbyopia
We welcome you to call us to discuss your needs and assess whether scleral lenses are right for you.

Scleral Lenses for Keratoconus Treatment in Dallas
Are you suffering from:
-
- Blurred or distorted vision.
-
- Sudden worsening or clouding of vision.
-
- Increased light sensitivity.
One of the most common conditions that scleral lenses help to address is keratoconus. This condition occurs when the normally round, clear part at the front of the eye, the cornea, begins to thin and bulge into a cone or football-like shape. This can severely harm your vision.
Scleral lenses help with this by providing a dome-like surface over the abnormal cornea, creating proper refraction for clear vision.
