Scleral lenses have allowed a number of our irregular cornea patients to see the world in a manner that may have previously been impossible. Because these lenses vault the cornea, they create a wholly new refractive surface—freeing the clinician from the constraints of the patient’s corneal anatomy. Scleral lenses also provide a stable visual experience; unlike traditional small-diameter GP lenses, they do not move with each blink.
