A degenerative condition called keratoconus causes the cornea to thin and bulge outward into a cone shape. It impairs vision and increases sensitivity to light. Glasses and traditional contact lenses can help manage the condition, but they cannot provide adequate vision correction for more severe cases. Fortunately, there is a solution: scleral lenses. 

Various types of contact lenses are available. That is because vision correction and eye comfort needs and preferences differ. Some people prefer the comfort and convenience of soft contact lenses.

Myopia management should start at the first sign of progression (change in the child’s prescription) or even sooner if the child has many risk factors for pathologic myopia ( both parents are very near-sighted, increased use of digital devices, high axial length… etc) 

Scleral lenses are gas-permeable contacts made wide enough to cover your eye. In contrast to conventional lenses, they vault over the cornea and leave a space between your corneal surface and the lens. Scleral lenses are custom-fit to the eye and are ideal for people with specific eye issues such as:
