Wear mini sclera contact lenses to protect your eyes from infection People who previously wouldn't have been candidates for contact due to abnormalities in their visual health can now benefit from this type of corrective eyewear, thanks to advancements in contact lens technology—scleral lenses, which are more significant than typical contact lenses, resulting from such an advancement. The conventional wisdom has been that scleral lenses should be used as a last resort if all other options fail.
Many contact lens professionals only use scleral lenses for patients with irregular corneas like those with keratoconus, pellucid marginal degeneration, post-surgical, post-trauma, or ocular surface diseases. These patients have unquestionably significantly benefited from scleral lens designs and will continue to do so. The lenses can be stabilized on an uneven surface where no other design will work. They completely vault the irregular corneal surface and land on the sclera's more uniform texture. What other factors contribute to the design's success, though? Keep reading this blog.
1. Enhanced starbursts and less glare Large optic zones in scleral lenses remain centered over the pupil, giving the patient optics free from flare and glare. Traditional corneal lenses move a lot during blinking. They have smaller optic zones, occasionally allowing the peripheral curves to enter the visual axis and produce starbursts and light
