Scleral Lenses

Scleral Lenses

Scleral lenses are life-changing for many people who wear them. Dr. Thakrar has been fitting scleral lenses for more than 20 years. Scleral lenses are able to correct vision and provide lubrication to many patients with corneal disease and severe dry eye disease.

Scleral lenses are made using highly oxygen transmissible materials in order to optimize eye health. They typically range from about 15mm to 21mm in size. Many patients report that the larger size makes these lenses as comfortable as soft lenses.

Scleral lenses successfully treat the following conditions:

 

  • Keratoconus
  • Irregular or high astigmatism
  • Pellucid marginal degeneration
  • Corneal ectasia
  • Severe dry eye
  • Sjögren’s syndrome
  • Stevens-Johnson syndrome
  • Cicatricial pemphigoid
  • Atopic keratoconjunctivitis
  • Graft versus host disease
  • Lasik complications
