Who Benefits from Specialty Contact Lenses?
Specialty contact lenses are designed for patients who need more than a standard soft lens. You may be a good candidate if you have:
- Keratoconus or corneal ectasia
- Post-surgical eyes (LASIK, PRK, RK, corneal transplant)
- High or irregular astigmatism
- Corneal scarring or distortion
- Dry eye syndrome or ocular surface disease
- A history of contact lens discomfort or intolerance
Scleral Contact Lenses
Scleral lenses are large-diameter, rigid lenses that vault over the cornea and rest on the white part of the eye (the sclera). This creates a fluid-filled reservoir between the lens and the eye, providing hydration, comfort, and exceptionally clear vision. These lenses are ideal for:
Keratoconus & Irregular Corneas
Patients with keratoconus or other corneal irregularities.
Post-Surgical Eyes
Those recovering from refractive surgery complications.
Ocular Surface Diseases
People with severe dry eye who need long-term moisture.
At Ravine Eye Center and Eye Group, we use corneal topography and advanced fitting technology to ensure each scleral lens is custom-designed for your unique eye shape.
Contacts for Keratoconus
Keratoconus is an eye condition that causes the cornea to thin and bulge outward, leading to distorted, unstable vision. Traditional lenses often slide around or fail to provide clear sight. We specialize in fitting advanced lens options for keratoconus and other corneal issues, including:
- Scleral lenses
- RGP (rigid gas-permeable) lenses
- Hybrid lenses (a soft edge with a rigid center)
Orthokeratology Lenses
Orthokeratology (ortho-k) uses custom-fitted lenses worn overnight to gently reshape your cornea. In the morning, you remove the lenses and enjoy clear vision—no daytime contacts or glasses required.
Ortho-k lenses are clinically proven to slow myopia progression in children, making them a powerful tool for long-term eye health. They are ideal for:
